Again on DZone there is a nice introduction into HtmlUnit. It provides a Java based WebClient which you can control via its API. With this you could write JUnit tests. But more easily you could write them with the additional assert-Methods:
@Test
public void testGoogle(){
WebClient webClient = new WebClient();
HtmlPage currentPage = webClient.getPage("http://www.google.com/");
assertEquals("Google", currentPage.getTitleText());
}
@Test public void htmlunitAsserts() {
// Load a page
webClient.getPage("http://www.google.com/search?q=htmlunit");
// JUnit asserts and WebClient API
assertEquals(200,currentPage.getWebResponse().getStatusCode());
assertEquals("OK",currentPage.getWebResponse().getStatusMessage());
// HtmlUnit asserts
WebAssert.assertTextPresent(currentPage, "htmlunit");
WebAssert.assertTitleContains(currentPage, "htmlunit");
WebAssert.assertLinkPresentWithText(currentPage, "Advanced search");
// XPath Query
assertTrue(currentPage.getByXPath("//h3").size()>0); //result number
// Cookies
assertNotNull(webClient.getCookieManager().getCookie("NID"));
}
