Twill Testing

Filed under: Programming

I had a very simple first brush with twill, in which I drove Google around a little bit. I was successful, and even delighted. It’s a nice language and an even better python library. As a next step, I got some friends around to play with testing a real application.

For some reason, when we try to do a submit(), we get an exception due to POST encoding.

I was totally baffled, and hence this post. I’m looking for any input as to what is wrong, and will pursue it. If I find the answer it will definitely be appended to the text of this post.

It’s really a shame, because the framework is so simple and clean already.
