Working with Websites

Websites are the top-level objects of the Hyperlyn model. They represent remote servers running web applications or services.

Properties

Websites have three properties

  • Scheme — Protocol to be used when communicating to the Websitehttp or https
    • This is a default value for the entire Website that can be overriden in Request Templates
  • Server Name and Server Port — A domain name and port number
Options

There are some options you can configure for an entire site

  • Explicit Standard Headers — Normally this flag is set to false meaning that standard headers required by the HTTP protocol are automatically added when a request is sent. If the flag is set to true, these standard headers are added to the Request Editor and you have a chance to override them before sending a request to the server.
  • Manage Cookies — This flag indicates whether Hyperlyn should automatically save cookies received in responses and send them with subsequent requests. Cookies are saved as parameters and attached to the resource specified in the Set-Cookie header.
  • Follow Redirects — This flag indicates whether Hyperlyn should automatically send another request to the location specified in a response with a 3XX status code. This only applies to GET requests.
