How to do a redirect using webunit?

[Leonid Khachaturov]

Hi,

I want to use webunit to drive the UI tests. I'm stuck with doing a
redirect. The code looks like that:

def test_login
url = 'http://localhost:8080/'
response = WebUnit::Response::get(url)
login_form = response.forms[0]
assert_equals('login-username', login_form.parameters[1].name)
assert_equals('login-password', login_form.parameters[2].name)
login_form.parameters[1].value = "mylogin"
login_form.parameters[2].value = "mypassword"
response = login_form.submit
redirect_url = response.url
response = tryRedirect(response, redirect_url)
...
end

def tryRedirect(response, url)
if response.code == '302'
response = Response:ost(url)
response = response.redirect
end
end

I'm getting the following error:

EOFError: End of file reached

Any ideas?
