ABSTRACT:
A method for testing a web site includes formulating a test configuration file including a series of test inquiries for a web site to be tested, initiating a HTTP communication to form a connection with the web site, and repetitively communicating with the web site to test for a variety of errors. The repetitive communication preferably includes receiving HTML from the web site, analyzing the HTML for errors and storing results in the database, and formulating a new HTTP communication based upon the received HTML and the test configuration file. Preferably, the test configuration file is created by sending HTML comprising a blank testing form to a web browser, receiving HTTP from the web browser as a submission from the HTML testing form, and developing the test configuration file from the HTTP.
