Handle login pages
|

| Hello,
Is there a built-in way that ACT handles username and passwords for a log-in screen? the goal would be to run a test with 1 user/pw, and then modify the properties > User Tab so that the test runs as a different user.
I see that it has all the pieces (a user node, a user property for tests), but for the life of me I can't figure out how to apply these. I've scouraged the documentation and see nothing useful.
The only solution I see is to have a program programatically change the Username/Password in the Script's Request, but there has *got* to be a better way.
Any help would be really appreciated,
Thanks,
Tim

| Regarding forms authentication and ACT - from the ACT online help:
ACT will not handle forms-based authentication automatically. If your Web
application allows users to manually send names and passwords in form
elements, you will need to explicitly edit the query string or body of the
request to mimic a client-side form submission.
It’s not automatically handled by ACT. You will need to modify your script
Like this….
http://www.foo.com/login.aspx?user=...0password=12345
Thank You
