Canoo Webtest WebTest Canoo

General Type option

Description

Backdoor to configure HtmlUnit directly.

Option elements belong to the config rather than to a specific invocation, because they reflect browser settings. They are unlikely to change during a conversation.

Option settings provide a crude mechanism to alter settings provided by the underlying browser client layer. This sometimes allows settings needed for a particular test to be changed without coding. They may stop working if supporting jar file versions change or if WebTest provides more complete support via a different approach in the future. See the JavaDoc for Target for more details - look in the source as the relevant JavaDocs are for private methods and do not show in the published JavaDocs.

Parameters

name
Required? yes
The name of the option, e.g. ThrowExceptionOnFailingStatusCode, ThrowExceptionOnScriptError or JavaScriptEnabled.
value
Required? yes
The option value. e.g. false

Usage

config.
