Testerone won't accept POST Data that has objects in arrays.

If I have a test setup like this

goodTest=
    Lat: '1.00'
    Lng: '1.00'
    zChange: '1.00'

data=
    data:
        data: [goodTest]
        User: "tester" 
test
    .post '/points', data, (res) -> 
        assert.equal res.statusCode, 200
        assert.equal JSON.parse(res.body)['status'], 'success'

My web service gets post data as follows

{ data: [""], User: 'tester' }

When I was expecting an array of JSON Objects. If I stringify the objects it works but then I need to parse the string manually.

Issue is right there, querystring.stringify doesn't handle non 'POST' params nicely. Maybe check the content-type if its text/json then don't parse it.

good = [ {data: "hello!", data2:"boo!"}]
require("querystring").stringify(good) >>> "0="

I use express/connect and use its built in bodyParser() so it's a little difficult. Any recommendations on workarounds?

Also any thoughts to make jquery a dependency? Then you can use its ajax() function which nicely serializes any json data for you.
