RE: [Webunitproj-users] please help -- webunit suddenly stopped working

[Brian K. <bt...@ne...>]

Good news... we found the culprit... it turns out that one of our team
members checked in some updates to a page that causes the browser to
post to the server right in the middle of entering fields.  Consequently
our tests continued to fill in the remaining input fields - this broke
the contract between the cache and the actual browser content.  So all
we had to do to fix our tests was to retrieve the current state before
filling in the remaining input fields.  Sorry for the emergency email...
thanks.

We have been running webunit for a while now without any issues... all
of sudden today we started getting a ton of errors.  All our tests now
throw at least one of the following two errors (it's actually very
random in which one gets thrown)... any help is greatly appreciated...
thanks.
