[Webtest] How to click an image link?

[Marc Guillemot]

The xpath is evaluated against the DOM which itself is the result of the parsing therefore some changes are performed to 
the source html code like for instance changing attribute names to lowercase.
Try:
<click description="Click the 'Show Chart' tab"
  xpath="//img[@onclick=&quot;loadPage('/edgedynamics/portal/jsp/analytics/explorer_chart.jsp');&quot;]"
/>
