'How to run HtmlUnit.jar in terminal/command line?
I am searching for a way for testing my webpage using the command line.
My intentions are
- check an anchor tag is present on the page
- check the anchor tag href is pointing to the correct(pre-defined) web link
- Check the anchor tag text is the pre-defined one
- I should be able to check other tags also like img, script, etc.
After searching, I came across htmlUnit.jar. But I am not getting any proper link on how to run this in the command line.
- Will I be able to pass the test cases to the jar file? If so, please guide me
- What is the syntax to run this htmlUnit.jar file in the terminal? I am unable to find any useful documentation
Please help if I can achieve my goal by this file

HtmlUnit is a library, you have to write your own program using HtmlUnit for your use case.
Another option is to use Wetator (www.wetator.org). Wetator is
- based on HtmlUnit
- runs from the command line
- can perform the different asserts you like to do
- generates a nice report (and also a return code if at least one assert fails)
(Ok, i'm the person behind HtmlUnit and Wetator so maybe i miss some other option)
