I used to do that kind of thing about 8 years ago. I used bash scripts and curl to post to the servers I was watching. There's an extension for Firefox called LiveHTTPHeaders that does a pretty good job of capturing what gets sent so you can replicate it. The tricky part is processing anything that uses javascript in the browser.
I never had to deal with any kind of JSON or REST or whatever protocols, though...

Hi everyone,
Does anyone know how or have any experience with scripting a modern browser and possibly interfacing that with Xymon?
I have a requirement to monitor our ERP system, and it has to be a login to the app via a modern web browser, which means java, etc. Is there any way that anyone has come across for simulating those calls and replaying them, and interfacing that with Xymon? I’ve been trying to copy session calls with CURL and not having much success yet. I’ve also found Selenium but haven’t done more than look at the front page of the site yet. Any info about using that would be appreciated too.
Thanks for any suggestions.
