Sending Http POST request

[Giulio Petrucci]

Hi there,

I' have a simple ASP.NET application reciveinf a POST request and using
both HttpContext.Current.Request.Files and
HttpContext.Current.Request.Form.

In order to test the page, I'd need to send a post request cotaining
both files and parameter in form "var1=value1&var2=value2". How can I do
this?

Thanks in advance,
Giulio - Italy

System.Net.WebClient has methods UploadFile and UploadValues but not to
do both with one request. So you would need to implement the request
yourself with (Http)WebRequest I think. Or try to find whether any third
party test framework offers an API.

Exactly.
But shall I just push everything into the request stream?

Thanks,

If you want to implement that yourself then you indeed need to write
everything to the request stream, but in the proper format described in
http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html#h-17.13.4.2 respectively
the related RFC.

Thanks.
Anyway it sounds me a little strange that there is nothing in the .NET
fx for shuch stuff...

thanks,
