It would be handy to have a "Test" button in the URL Test Properties dialog box. This button would display the current content of the specified URL.
For example, I had a test of a secure URL (https://some.address.com)
This test, which had worked for a long time, began failing and I couldn't understand why.
The test checked for speciufic content. Long story short, I had recently changed the "Agent Name" that HM reports for URL tests (under Options | Misc | Setting For URL Tests ).
But the web site I was testing produced output dependent upon the Agent, and I happened to be checking for wrong content.
Because content is encrypted, sniffer is useless - I needed to see the content after decryption...
Anyway, "it would be nice if" there was a "Test" tool in this dialog similar to what you do for ODBC query.
This "feature request" is not absolutely essential but would make trouble shooting a bit easier.
