Web scenario

Web scenario checks multiple pages using a shared session. Cookies are reused within a check run. Login and content validation can be configured as a sequence of up to 20 Check steps.

  1. Select Web scenario and enter the target, port and Connection (https or http).

  2. If necessary, add Username, Password or Access token. Credentials are only allowed with HTTPS.

  3. Under Check steps, click Add row and configure the steps in the required order.

  4. Test and save the workflow.

Field per step

Meaning

Label

Name of the check step

Path

Relative path starting at /, for example /login

Method

GET or POST

Form data

POST form data; supported placeholders include {{username}}, {{password}} and previously extracted variables

HTTP status codes

Expected codes, default 200-299

Expected content

Text that must appear in the response

Variable extraction pattern

Regular expression for extracting a value from the response

Variable name

Name for reusing the extracted value in later steps

An expression with one group uses that group’s value; without a group, the entire match is used. A valid variable name starts with a letter. If a status, content or required match cannot be confirmed, the check run ends at that step. Each executed step supplies a response time and a state.

The workflow uses HTTP requests and evaluates response text. It does not execute browser JavaScript. Redirects are followed up to five times within the same connection to the same server; redirects to a different server address are not followed with credentials.
