Adding an authentication folder

You can add an authentication folder to a request.

Web application servers can include an option to force a login. You might have a test that was recorded when this option was disabled, and you want to run the test with the option enabled. Adding an authentication folder to the appropriate test request allows you to do this. An alternative is to record the test again, with the force-login option enabled.

To add an authentication folder to a request:

  1. Open the test.
  2. Click the request that will contain the authentication folder.
  3. Click Add and select Basic Authentication. A folder named Authentication is added to the request and the Details display Userid, Password, and Realm fields.
