Hi Doug,

That error usually means that WebTest (or HtmlUnit, specifically) has =
trouble running some of the javascript on your site.

Start by looking at =
https://trading.mywebsite.com/common/StockOrderEntry.js line 78, and see =
what the javascript looks like ("Cannot read property "options" from =
null" probably means you have something.options and something is null? =
I'm not a javascript expert).

Hello,

I am new to WebTest and am already very interested in learning more but =
have run into a problem and have not been successful understanding which =
component is throwing the error. I have seen this same exact error from =
two different websites under test. Is this a javascript error or webtest =
or ...?

The error:

BUILD FAILED
C:\webtest\doc\doc\samples\mywebsiteTest.xml:11: Canoo Webtest: R_1357.
Test failed.
Test step clickButton (C:\webtest\doc\doc\samples\mywebsiteTest.xml:43: =
)  named
 "Click the submit button" failed with message "Step[clickButton "Click =
the subm
it button" (6/12)]: Script error loading page executing webtest at: =
clickButton
TypeError: Cannot read property "options" from null =

om/common/StockOrderEntry.js#78)
Source code:
function () {
        [native code, arity=3D0]
}
"
Total time: 5 seconds

Can anyone shed any light on where I should start?

Thanks
Doug
