Spider / Crawler for testing an AJAX web application that requires a session cookie?

We have a web application that has a strong AJAX impact and is highly customizable, so we need something to click on every link in it to make sure none of the forms / pages break. I know there are a lot of spiders / crawlers out there, but we couldn't find one that is easy to implement and works with AJAX and allows you to have a session cookie.

Ok, given that you asked this question two years ago, I doubt you will really need an answer. But in case anyone else comes across this question from a search engine, here's my suggestion:



Use Selenium http://seleniumhq.org/ or IEUnit https://code.google.com/p/ieunit/ to automate the browser itself. They work on a JavaScript engine, so you can write multiple lines of code to click each anchor tag on your site.
