Abstract
A method and system for creating a web transaction test includes sending formatted information such as HTML comprising a parsed testing form to a web browser, receiving formatted messages such as HTTP format from the web browser as a submission from the HTML testing form, and developing a test configuration file from the received HTTP information. At least one section of the parsed testing form is to be filled out from a list of predetermined selections. Preferably, the parsing of the testing from as well as the list of predetermined selections are at least in part based on information contained on the web browser.
