Hey gang.

Some developers just added javascript templates to our webapp and hose the webtests.

http://code.google.com/p/trimpath/wiki/JavaScriptTemplates is the project that they are using.

First question is:

1) Does webtest support this? I think the answer is no but am looking for official answer.

What I see on the client side is we make an http request to get a jst template. I receive a response no prob. Here is an example.

[sleep] DEBUG (httpclient.wire.content) - << "{var hourValues = ["01","02","03","04","05","06","07","08","09","10","11"]}[\r][\n]"

[sleep] DEBUG (httpclient.wire.content) - << "{var minuteValues = ["00","30"]}[\r][\n]"

[sleep] DEBUG (httpclient.wire.content) - << "{var ampmValues = ["AM","PM"]}[\r][\n]"

In theory, we would get the jst template and them some javascript would execute which would plug in the values. However, in webtest, I end up with:

[sleep] DEBUG (com.gargoylesoftware.htmlunit.javascript.host.XMLHttpRequest) - Calling onreadystatechange handler for state 3

[sleep] DEBUG (com.gargoylesoftware.htmlunit.javascript.host.XMLHttpRequest) - onreadystatechange handler:

[sleep] function () {

[sleep] return __method.apply(object, args.concat($A(arguments)));

[sleep] }

[sleep]

[sleep] DEBUG (com.gargoylesoftware.htmlunit.javascript.host.XMLHttpRequest) - XMLHttpRequest.responseXML was called but the response is

This is a sample jst template:

<h2>Appointment Scheduling</h2>

<table style="padding-right: 3px;padding-left: 0px;padding-bottom: 5px;padding-top: 5px;">

<tr>

<th style="font-weight: normal;vertical-align: top;color: #484848;white-space: nowrap;background-color: #ffffff;text-align: left;padding-top: 1px;padding-right: 12px;padding-left: 20px;">Minimum Lead Time:</th>

<td style="padding-left: 0px;padding-right: 2em;vertical-align: top;border-top-style: none;border-right-style: none;border-left-style: none;border-bottom-style: none;">

<select name='defaultApptLeadTime'>

{for leadTime in schedulingConfig.leadTimes}

{if schedulingConfig.defaultApptLeadTime == leadTime}

<option value="${leadTime}" selected="selected">${leadTime}</option>

{else}

<option value="${leadTime}">${leadTime}</option>

{/if}

{/for}

</select>
