[Http-webtest-general] HTTP::WebTest::Request bug?

[Brian W. <bw...@ya...>]

Hello,

I noticed that HTTP::WebTest::Request module reformats that url during the
tests. I have run into a problem when using wt to test web pages that redirect
you to another web page.

I am trying to test the return code of a url that looks something like:

http://website.com?http://website2.com?var=val

It appears that HTTP::WebTest::Request::uri is encoding everything after the
first question mark. This behavior is different than HTTP::Request::uri and
consequently, web test reports a 403 error instead of a 200. If I manually
remove the uri method from HTTP::WebTest::Request (so it will use the method
from the base class), then the test returns a 200 code.

Is there an easy way to tell HTTP::WebTest::Request::uri to behave the same as
HTTP::Request? Is there another way to get the test to succeed for this url?
Thanks.

- Brian
