Hi Mike,

I left out the threadedTest and it runs ok.
Meanwhile, I've got another problem: I try to test a web application:
I login to the application and get a cookie. My idea was to login with
three different users and to communicate independently. The result I
get is the message 'User changed' from my application. So it seems,
that there are not really three instances of a (httpunit-)client
running at my side. I'm not sure, whether it is an http-unit issue.
But it seems to me like a problem of threading.

What do you (or anybody else) think about it?

Regards,
Frank
