Scheduled Test on Private Instance

[pdavis]

This probably isn't the cleanest way, but I used Cygwin's Curl in a batch file to make a call to WebPageTest. I tied the calling of my batch file into my build process, but you could also use CRON or Windows Task Scheduler. Here is roughly what my script looks like...

@echo off
SET Curl_Path="curl.exe"
SET Curl_Silent_Paramaters=-o /dev/null -s --compressed
