Need Help??

in reply to Using Perl to Test a Web App that uses Javascript

You can only use modules like WWW::Mechanize or HTTP::Recorder for interacting direcly with the webserver. If that's all you need to test then you should be all set.

If you actually need to test the javascript itself then you are in for a tough time unfortunately. Javascript runs inside your browser and I know of no way to emulate that in Perl.
