Constructor Detail

HttpUnitOptions

public HttpUnitOptions()

Method Detail

reset

public static void reset()

Resets all options to their default values.

isAcceptCookies

public static boolean isAcceptCookies()

Deprecated. as of 1.5.3, use ClientProperties#isAcceptCookies();

Returns true if HttpUnit is accepting and saving cookies. The default is to accept them.

setAcceptCookies

public static void setAcceptCookies(boolean acceptCookies)

Deprecated. as of 1.5.3, use ClientProperties#setAcceptCookies();

Specifies whether HttpUnit should accept and send cookies.

isAcceptGzip

public static boolean isAcceptGzip()

Deprecated. as of 1.5.3, use ClientProperties#isAcceptGzip();

Returns true if any WebClient created will accept GZIP encoding of responses. The default is to accept GZIP encoding.

setAcceptGzip

public static void setAcceptGzip(boolean acceptGzip)

Deprecated. as of 1.5.3, use ClientProperties#setAcceptGzip();

Specifies whether a WebClient will be initialized to accept GZIP encoded responses. The default is true.

resetDefaultCharacterSet

public static void resetDefaultCharacterSet()

Resets the default character set to the HTTP default encoding.

resetDefaultContentType

public static void resetDefaultContentType()

Resets the default content type to plain text.

setDefaultCharacterSet

public static void setDefaultCharacterSet(java.lang.String characterSet)

Sets the default character set for pages which do not specify one and for requests created without HTML sources. By default, HttpUnit uses the HTTP default encoding, iso-8859-1.

getDefaultCharacterSet

public static java.lang.String getDefaultCharacterSet()

Returns the character set to be used for pages which do not specify one.

isCheckContentLength

public static boolean isCheckContentLength()

Returns true if HttpUnit will throw an exception when a message is only partially received. The default is to avoid such checks.

setCheckContentLength

public static void setCheckContentLength(boolean checkContentLength)

Specifies whether HttpUnit should throw an exception when the content length of a message does not match its actual received length. Defaults to false.

setPostIncludesCharset

public static void setPostIncludesCharset(boolean postIncludesCharset)

Determines whether a normal POST request will include the character set in the content-type header. The default is to include it; however, some older servlet engines (most notably Tomcat 3.1) get confused when they see it.

isPostIncludesCharset

public static boolean isPostIncludesCharset()

Returns true if POST requests should include the character set in the content-type header.

setDefaultContentType

public static void setDefaultContentType(java.lang.String contentType)

Sets the default content type for pages which do not specify one.

getDefaultContentType

public static java.lang.String getDefaultContentType()

Returns the content type to be used for pages which do not specify one.

getParserWarningsEnabled

public static boolean getParserWarningsEnabled()

Deprecated. as of 1.5.2, use HTMLParserFactory#isParserWarningsEnabled

Returns true if parser warnings are enabled.

setParserWarningsEnabled

public static void setParserWarningsEnabled(boolean enabled)

Deprecated. as of 1.5.2, use HTMLParserFactory#setParserWarningsEnabled

If true, tells the parser to display warning messages. The default is false (warnings are not shown).

setExceptionsThrownOnErrorStatus

public static void setExceptionsThrownOnErrorStatus(boolean enabled)

If true, WebClient.getResponse throws an exception when it receives an error status. Defaults to true.

getExceptionsThrownOnErrorStatus

public static boolean getExceptionsThrownOnErrorStatus()

Returns true if WebClient.getResponse throws exceptions when detected an error status.

getParameterValuesValidated

public static boolean getParameterValuesValidated()

Deprecated. as of 1.6, use WebForm#newUnvalidatedRequest() to obtain a request without parameter validation.

Returns true if form parameter settings are checked.

setParameterValuesValidated

public static void setParameterValuesValidated(boolean validated)

Deprecated. as of 1.6, use WebForm#newUnvalidatedRequest() to obtain a request without parameter validation.

If true, tells HttpUnit to throw an exception on any attempt to set a form parameter to a value which could not be set via the browser. The default is true (parameters are validated).
Note: this only applies to a WebRequest created after this setting is changed. A request created with this option disabled will not only not be checked for correctness, its parameter submission order will not be guaranteed, and changing parameters will not trigger Javascript onChange / onClick events.

getImagesTreatedAsAltText

public static boolean getImagesTreatedAsAltText()

Returns true if images are treated as text, using their alt attributes.

setImagesTreatedAsAltText

public static void setImagesTreatedAsAltText(boolean asText)

If true, tells HttpUnit to treat images with alt attributes as though they were the text value of that attribute in all searches and displays. The default is false (image text is generally ignored).

getMatchesIgnoreCase

public static boolean getMatchesIgnoreCase()

If true, text matches in methods such as HTMLSegment.getLinkWith(java.lang.String) are case insensitive. The default is true (matches ignore case).

setMatchesIgnoreCase

public static void setMatchesIgnoreCase(boolean ignoreCase)

If true, text matches in methods such as HTMLSegment.getLinkWith(java.lang.String) are case insensitive. The default is true (matches ignore case).

isLoggingHttpHeaders

public static boolean isLoggingHttpHeaders()

Returns true if HTTP headers are to be dumped to system output.

setLoggingHttpHeaders

public static void setLoggingHttpHeaders(boolean enabled)

If true, tells HttpUnit to log HTTP headers to system output. The default is false.

getAutoRedirect

public static boolean getAutoRedirect()

Deprecated. as of 1.5.3, use ClientProperties#isAutoRedirect();

Returns true if HttpUnit should automatically follow page redirect requests (status 3xx). By default, this is true.

setAutoRedirect

public static void setAutoRedirect(boolean autoRedirect)

Deprecated. as of 1.5.3, use ClientProperties#setAutoRedirect();

Determines whether HttpUnit should automatically follow page redirect requests (status 3xx). By default, this is true in order to simulate normal browser operation.

getRedirectDelay

public static int getRedirectDelay()

Returns the delay, in milliseconds, before a redirect request is issues.

setRedirectDelay

public static void setRedirectDelay(int delayInMilliseconds)

Sets the delay, in milliseconds, before a redirect request is issued. This may be necessary if the server under some cases where the server performs asynchronous processing which must be completed before the new request can be handled properly, and is taking advantage of slower processing by most user agents. It almost always indicates an error in the server design, and therefore the default delay is zero.

getAutoRefresh

public static boolean getAutoRefresh()

Deprecated. as of 1.5.3, use ClientProperties#isAutoRefresh();

Returns true if HttpUnit should automatically follow page refresh requests. By default, this is false, so that programs can verify the redirect page presented to users before the browser switches to the new page.

setAutoRefresh

public static void setAutoRefresh(boolean autoRefresh)

Deprecated. as of 1.5.3, use ClientProperties#setAutoRefresh();

Specifies whether HttpUnit should automatically follow page refresh requests. By default, this is false, so that programs can verify the redirect page presented to users before the browser switches to the new page. Setting this to true can cause an infinite loop on pages that refresh themselves.

removeHtmlErrorListener

public static void removeHtmlErrorListener(HTMLParserListener el)

Deprecated. as of 1.5.2, use HTMLParserfactory#removeHTMLParserListener

Remove an Html error listener.

addHtmlErrorListener

public static void addHtmlErrorListener(HTMLParserListener el)

Add an Html error listener.

getHtmlErrorListeners

public static java.util.Vector getHtmlErrorListeners()

Deprecated. as of 1.5.2, removed with no replacement

Get the list of Html Error Listeners

getScriptEngineClassName

public static java.lang.String getScriptEngineClassName()

setScriptEngineClassName

public static void setScriptEngineClassName(java.lang.String scriptEngineClassName)

getScriptingEngine

public static ScriptingEngineFactory getScriptingEngine()

public static void clearScriptErrorMessages()

Clears the accumulated script error messages.

addCustomAttribute

public static void addCustomAttribute(java.lang.String attributeName)

Deprecated. for new Scripting engine
