[hobbit] Web Page Check

[James Wade]

Hi Henrik,

Yes, I want to do more than authentication,
I want to basically act like a user using
a test account to test basic functionality
of the website.

Generally, Hobbit's built-in web checking can only request one URL.
However, that one request can include authentication data (if you're
using "basic" HTTP authentication, or X.509 certificate authentication)
as well as posting form data.

If your website is different - e.g. you don't use basic authentication
because it's insufficient, then you'll need to build a custom test
script for yourself.

Henrik
