Thanks for posting your question TiffanyC.

Yes, it IS easy using eValid to manipulate query strings in a web application test.

For one thing, the URL's that are involved in a test are, in most cases, shown in their complete form in the eValid script that you use to play back a test.

Also, you have explicit GetURL and PostURL commands that you can use directly, and these can be expressed in parametric form as well.

To manipulate them you simply make them parameters... $NAME is an example parameter, but you can use any NAME you like as long as the parametric name starts with a "$".

There are many ways to vary the value of $NAME at playback time. Here is an example of how parameters appear in an _eValid invocation within a LoadTest script:
