[Webtest] QUERY: Why my property is not visible anymore.....

[Dhruba Bandopadhyay]

1. If one uses the followFrame, will the javascript in one page still be 
able to reference/activate/use other frames? If so, why not call this 
function selectFrame because followFrame makes it sound like use only this 
frame (as top) whilst the other frames are gone.

2. I understand dynamic properties only exist within steps. Then we use 
storeProperty as ant type. Is it normal that we can only access this ant 
property within the target tag? Because I can't seem to access it outside 
the target tag nor the project tag. If we can only have one webtest in the 
target tag, what use is converting to ant property if it can only be 
accessed inside target (even though outside steps & webtest tags).

Taking the Sample files as an example:
a) AllUseCasesTestSuite.xml
b) UseCases\LoginAndStep.xml

LoginAndStep.xml uses storeProperty within a step to convert to ant type. I 
used echo to verify:

LoginAndStep.xml
<project>
  <target>
    <webtest>
      <steps>
        <storeProperty/>
      </steps>
    </webtest>
    <echo><!-- visible here as ant type -->
  </target>
  <echo><!-- not visible anymore, why??? -->
</project>

AllUseCasesTestSuite.xml
<project>
  <target>
    <ant>
    <echo><!-- not visible anymore, why??? -->
  </target>
  <echo><!-- not visible anymore, why??? -->
</project>



Ideally I would like a login session to persist over a whole testsuite. Is 
this possible? I need to store the session string in that case.
