[Simpletest-support] Bug Report: Incompatibility with MediaWiki

[Lambert L. <la...@bl...>]

I hope this is the right place to report a bug.

I am using SimpleTest with MediaWiki. During the course of writing test 
scripts I noticed that anything that dealt with editing wiki pages was 
failing. Upon closer inspection, I noticed that Simple Test was choking on a 
hidden form element, named wpEditToken. This wpEditToken's value is a string 
that ends in '\'.

<input type='hidden' value="99b0c5b089d852f6c490d9ac17ae4c3a+\" 
name="wpEditToken" />

My guess is that the SimpleTest parser interprets the '\' as a special 
character and thus renders the value attribute unreadable.
