[Webtest] setting values of hidden fields

Hi Darrin,

Well, with a WebTest you simulate a user that uses a web application.
Such a user is not able to change the value of a hidden input field.
They are hidden exactly for that purpose.

We currently do not support javascript in WebTests.

A workaround would be to put the desired name/value directly into the url.

hope that helps
