Support for Unpoly

[barrypitman]

I'm struggling to use HtmlUnit (via webdriver) to test my application which is using unpoly - unpoly.com.

When you click on links, unpoly will make the request using AJAX instead of a full-page reload, and swap out the old HTML with the new. However, when I try to click on these same links using HtmlUnit, nothing happens, i.e. the original HTML remains in place.

I'm not seeing any errors in the logs either so I don't know where to start looking. There is a demo site - https://demo.unpoly.com/ and I've attached a test case (using HtmlUnitDriver) which demonstrates the issue.

ChromeDriver and HtmlUnitDriver without javascript both work, but HtmlUnitDriver with javascript enabled doesn't work.

Thanks for a great project!

ok,will have a look

good news, looks like the js code is loaded and at least the request for the companies is triggered.
But the page update does not take place. Will be a harder story to understand why....

have set up a local debug environment for this - first found problem is this one (mozilla/rhino#1293)
if merged i have to fix the processing of \n in the htmlunit part of the console processing.

ok, next step - seems to be a problem with Object.assign - if using the polyfill (line 260) replaces the content.
Will require some time to write a test for this and than the hard part with rhino starts.

Looks like this solves the problem

mozilla/rhino#780

mozilla/rhino#1242

Have done a new snapshot build that should fix this. @barrypitman please try and report your findings.
