Parse HTML Result for DevTest Tags

The Parse HTML Result for DevTest Tags filter provides a way for developers to test-enable their web applications. For an in-depth study on test-enabling, see Using the SDK.

This filter lets you insert "LISAPROP" tags into your web page. The LISAPROP tag has two attributes: name and value. The LISAPROP tags do not show up in your web pages. They function only to provide valuable information about your web page to a tester. An example of a LISAPROP is:

<LISAPROP name="FIRST_USER" value="sbellum">.

If a tester has installed this type of filter, the property FIRST_USER is automatically assigned the value sbellum. This filter removes any need for the tester to parse for this value. This type of filter helps a developer make the testing easier.

Frequently a web page does not contain the information that is necessary for proper validation, or that information is difficult to parse. Even when the information exists, subtle changes in the generated HTML can result in incorrect parsing. This filter can resolve many parsing issues for web testing.

No parameters are required.
