Digest Authentication with X-WWW-Authenticate

Hello,

 

I recently started with ReadyAPI and I got it to work, that it automatically created all my tests I need, but the digest authentication does not want to work.

We are not using the standard http response header WWW-Authenticate, but X-WWW-Authenticate - is there a way to manually configure the tool so it makes the digest authentication with this?

 

thats how my current response looks like.

    There can be different ways to achieve the same if you need to send the said http header for all the requests.

    One of them could be :

    1. set the project level property, say AUTH_HEADER and set the value as WWW-Authenticate

    2. set another property for the value appropriately

    And use custom events, SubmitListener.beforeSubmit and set the header and its value for each REST / SOAP request types (as needed) by reading the values from project properties.
