Changes to Cookie handling

Monday 6th December: We have this week rolled out a couple of small changes to the cookies testing in Sitemorse. The first change is very simple and straightforward - to help users repair reported problems, the diagnostic messages will now include the name of the problematic cookie.

The second change is that, while we still report errors found with cookies, the testing system will now accept the faulty cookie, and send its value with subsequent requests that are part of the same test. This should help alleviate the situation where the web server being tested sees that the cookie has not been accepted, and repeatedly attempts to set it with every request - leading to hundreds of diagnostic messages about the same cookie.

The Sitemorse Knowledge Base is the repository of knowledge about the Sitemorse system.

Every time a new feature is added, a question asked or anything our technical team believe might be appropriate is recorded here.
