[Simpletest-support] web test question

[Jason S. <jsw...@ya...>]

Marcus,

A thought just crossed my mind that SimpleTest may be the answer to another
problem I am having at work.  I am monitoring our extranet site for the time it
takes to query certain pages, and emailing myself if the time is greater than a
certain threshold.  I just hacked out a unix shell script using time, curl and
mailx as a first cut.

I was thinking that with a php-cli and simpletest I might be able to do the
same thing.  Off the top of my head I did not know if the web tester would
handle:
a) SSL connections
b) session cookie passing
c) some kind of AssertMaxTime() for the fetch
d) frames (I was just fetching the frameset and ignoring it becuase I knew
where I wanted to go anyway)

Am I on the right track?
