Greetings.
I am attempting to manually create HTTP Requests with the proper post parameters inside of an update panel. The goal of this is to execute a potential user's path through a web application so that we can benchmark performance.
Our benchmark script executes a path by generating HTTP requests, and I'm trying to execute some "autopostback" controls within the UpdatePanel, but without using javascript.
I know this requires manipulation of __EVENTTARGET and possibly the propagation of __EVENTVALIDATION, __VIEWSTATE, etc.
Has anyone successfully manipulated the requests to pull this type of scripting?
