There are various ways to write web automation:

• LWP

• Send GET and POST requests
• It's simple
• It works
• It's a lot of work

• WWW::Mechanize

• An excellent module written by Andy Lester
• A subclass of LWP::UserAgent
• More intuitive than straight LWP
• Methods mimic what you do with a web page: follow a link, fill in field values, submit a form

• Other Modules
