Just wanted to point out that Hobbit does support sending cookies with
a request - see the bbtest-net man-page; you drop the cookies into a
Netscape-cookie-format file in ~/server/etc/cookies, and they are sent
with any requests. However, requiring a cookie for a "one-shot" test
which is what Hobbit does - it doesn't follow redirects - really does
not make much sense, unless it's used as some form of simple user
identification.
So as Larry points out, for these kinds of tests where you might want
to script a full transaction or session, a custom script using curl or
some similar tool might be superior.
Regards,
Henrik

Curl will allow you to set the user-agent and store and send cookies.
See the curl man page.

We have a web service that requires IE and cookies enabled in the
browser. I am trying to test that with hobbit and I get error
message.
The current one is you must have cookies enabled, but I am sure
the next will be you must be using IE 5.2 or later. Any ideas on
how to get hobbit to do this for me.?
