Hi, 
I am using webtest to perform functional testing with our webapp.  We have 
been developing using the Struts framework.  My first problem deals with 
using forms. 
The html produced looks as follows:
<form name="userInfo" method="POST" action="/webapp/ams/Login.do">
    <table border="0">
        <tr><td>User:</td><td><input type="text" name="userName" 
maxlength="15" size="15" value=""></td></tr>
        <tr><td>Password:</td><td><input type="password" name="password" 
maxlength="15" size="15" value=""></td></tr>
        <tr><td /><td><input type="submit" name="action" value="Login">

and the corresponding clickbutton statement is as follows:
                        <setinputfield
                                        stepid="set user name" 
                                        name="userName" 
                                        value="yyyyyyyy" />
                                <setinputfield
                                        stepid="set password"
                                        name="password"
                                        value="xxxxxx" />
                          <clickbutton 
                                name="Login"
                                stepid="Click the Login button">
                                        <form name="userInfo" />
                                </clickbutton>

The error message I get back is:
<failure message="com.canoo.webtest.engine.StepFailedException: Button with name <Login> and 
value <<not specified>> not found!, Step: ClickButton(id="Click the Login 
button"label=null)" /> 

I fully believe that the name attribute in the input block of the html is 
causing me the trouble.  I am a little confused what to do since Struts 
set that parameter with the property tag. 

If anyone has any suggestions, I am all ears.

Thanks,

Matt Zylstra
