HTTP-WebTest is a Perl module which runs tests on remote URLs or local Web files containing Perl/JSP/HTML/JavaScript/etc., and generates a detailed test report. This module can be used "as-is" or its functionality can be extended using plugins. Plugins can define test types and provide additional report capabilities. This module comes with a set of default plugins, but can be easily extended with third-party plugins.

Recent releases


Changes: ReportPlugin.pm had a bug in that it sent out an email report even if the mail parameter was set to "errors" and all tests passed.


Changes: This release has new test parameters 'mail_success_subject' and 'mail_failure_subject' to redefine the default value of the Subject field in test report email messages. HTTP::WebTest no longer mangles test URLs like 'http://website.com?http://website2.com?var=val' by URL escaping everything after the first question mark.


Changes: A bug where test reports were not sent if multiple email addresses were specified as test report recipients has been fixed.


Changes: Some noise output produced by the HTTP::WebTest::Plugin::HarnessReport plugin in the 'make test' output when being used in Test::Harness-style test suites was removed. Some bugs in the self testing suite were fixed. Minor code cleanups were made.


Changes: This is full rewrite which features a modular and easily-expendable architecture. New test types can now be added with plugin modules. Many new standard test types have been added. Support for Test::Harness style testing has been added. Support for local file test mode has been removed from this version and will be implemented in a separately released plugin. Licensing terms have been changed from Artistic only to a dual-license of Artistic/GPL.
