The application can be tested outside a browser by using the curl command line utility.

1. Login and get a valid session ID, using curl:

   $ curl -i -X POST -d email='user@trip.test' \
   -d password='rasHuthlutcew7' \
   http://localhost:8080/trip/app/login | grep SESSION_ID
   

2. Fetching a single page with curl using the session ID obtained from the previous command:

   $ curl -H 'Cookie: TRIP_SESSION_ID=b3571314-d5c4-4690-8164-8384fd748faa' \
   'http://localhost:8080/trip/app/tracks'
   

3. Submitting a file for file upload:

   $ curl -i -H 'Content-Type: multipart/form-data' \
   -H 'Cookie: TRIP_SESSION_ID=b3571314-d5c4-4690-8164-8384fd748faa' \
   'localhost:8080/trip/app/itinerary/upload' \
   --form 'file=@/path/to/file.gpx' -F 'id=2450' -F 'action=upload'
