How are HTML resources & login pages handled?

I love the UI of LoadUI, amazing, but there are a few technical points I'm concerned about that I haven't been able to gleen from the docs and my first use with the tool:

1) How are resources of an HTML page handled (js, css, images, etc)?
- Are they parsed? Can I list the resources that should be downloaded by a page somehow? What about cache?

2) How are login pages handled? I need to test pages that requires a typical http login and, naturally, uses cookies.

    Hi,

    The Web Runner in loadUI is quite basic and only supports HTTP GET requests. Cookies are not supported, and external resources are not downloaded. To achieve the things your want you can use soapUI to create a Web based TestCase. SoapUI has support for login data, cookies/sessions, downloading resources, etc. You should find support for everything you need. Once created and saved using soapUI, you can run open the soapUI project in loadUI using the soapUI Runner component, as described here. Good luck!

    I want to run a loadtest over a certain server doing login action and I want to simulate multiple sessions. What I've seen is that even I have 20threads doing simultaneous logins in the logs of the server only appear 1 session. It seems like SoapUI is not acting as sending different requests asking for different sessions. JMeter, for example, does it. Please help me. Thanks
