    NullPointerException when using WebClientSpec

      Hello.

      I've just tried writing a JSFUnit test that uses cookies. From what I've found in the Javadoc it should be done like this:

      WebClientSpec web_client_spec = new WebClientSpec("/categories.jsf");
web_client_spec.addCookie("mycookie", "test");
this.session = new JSFSession(web_client_spec);


      With the above code I get the following Exception: 
      java.lang.NullPointerException

      The problem seems to be caused by a MyFaces Tomahawk AliasBeansScope: 
      <t:aliasBeansScope>
 <t:aliasBean alias="#{clipListViewer}" value="#{CategoriesBean.clipListViewer}" />
 <%@ include file="clipList.jsp"%>
</t:aliasBeansScope


      Now the strange thing is that it works fine when I create the session by passing the URL: 
      this.session = new JSFSession("/categories.jsf");


      But I haven't found a way to set a cookie without the WebClientSpec.
      Does anybody know how to do this or how to fix the above problem?

      Thanks,
      Peter
