| 1. A method within a sniffer server, the method including:
automatically transferring proxy settings to a testing device having a toolbar interface within a browser that initiates testing
of a website at a hosting server;
storing an HTML and an XML representation of unencrypted web pages viewed during a first test case and a second test case
within a memory at the sniffer server, the second test case being created by manually editing the XML representation of unencrypted
web pages viewed during the first test case and inserting a range of values for various iterations of the second test case,
the second test case further using at least a portion of data from the first test case without manual entry by a user;
simultaneously performing the first test case and the second test case by using a non-browser based testing module within
the sniffer server; and
transferring the HTML and the XML representation of unencrypted web pages viewed during the first test case and the second
test case to a storage device within the hosting server when the first test case is terminated.
