Advanced HTTP Request Automaton is a scriptable utility that submits HTTP GET and POST requests to an Internet or Intranet address and optionally persists HTTP responses to files. The application comes with an XML configuration file that maintains the following information: target URI with optional query string, HTTP request type, 'persist HTTP responses to files' yes/no flag, persisted HTTP responses directory path and persisted HTTP responses file extension. Advanced HTTP Request Automaton can be used by Windows Task Scheduler to automate submission of HTTP requests and persistence of corresponding HTTP responses to files.
