[Windmill-dev] Should SSL work?

[Ed Hager]

Hi,

I was giving Windmill a try for the first time creating a script in my
development environment for the retail website at www.go2marine.com.  My
script was going through the process of placing an item in the shopping cart
and then checking out.  When you click the checkout link on the site, you
are redirected to an SSL connection.  This happens even in my development
environment.

I am starting my Windmill script from the command line.  When the script
gets to the point of the SSL redirect, I am always prompted by Firefox to
review the SSL certificate.  This does not normally happen in my development
environment because I have my self-signed SSL certificate installed in my
browser.  I am assuming that windmill is inserting itself as a proxy and
that is somehow tripping Firefox's certificate validation.  Would there be a
way to stop this alert in Firefox?  Could I generate an SSL certificate that
would make Firefox happy?

Once I get past the SSL certificate validation, my Windmill script stops
interacting properly with the web page.  It fails to fill in simple text
fields and no longer triggers button clicks.  Is that related to this ticket
I found?

Windmill looks very promising.  Great job everyone.
