[Webtest] Browser Recording Tool - Proxy settings

[Ji Kim]

I think it may be something to do with how the firewall is set up for
LAN. There is nothing else in the text output area if I don't set up the
proxy server on the browser. If I do set the browser proxy setting and
make it consistent with the proxy setting on the tool, the tool records
the event with <invoke> and <verifytitle> but the browser can't get the
page.=20

I'll try this at home with my Mac outside my company LAN.
Thanks.

Good choice of Browser!
(there also is a cool extension called switch-proxy that helps much when
using the click-o-mat extensively)

The network environment is perfect.

ok. Do you see any output in the textarea and on the console window?

the <invoke> is a sure sign that the Click-O-Mat correctly recognized
your request. Do you see any output on the console window?
