How to get HttpClient returning status code?

Question

I'm developing my first java software as project, using what i learned from the college :'(

i'm trying to transform this website that students using it to get results...to a software,

sorry, the website is in french language, use google to translate the page

url: https://www2.inscription.tn/ORegMx/servlet/AuthentificationEtud?ident=cin

if you notice there's =cin, i still didn't learned php ,but, i think it can do something i don't know how to use java with http requests, so i did it this way but i need to know how to get the status code to know if it's 200 so the connection succeed and the inputs are correct and the user is connected and if another code so there's an error

WebDriver driver = new HtmlUnitDriver();
driver.get("https://www4.inscription.tn/ORegMx/servlet/AuthentificationEtud");

WebElement cin = driver.findElement(By.name("cin"));
WebElement date = driver.findElement(By.name("dn"));
WebElement captcha = driver.findElement(By.name("cincap"));

String cinValue=CIN.getText();
String dateValue=daten.getText();
String captchaValue=captcha.getText();

cin.sendKeys(cinValue);
date.sendKeys(dateValue);
captcha.sendKeys(captchaValue);

captcha.submit();

also there's a captcha in the login form in the website, so i'm thinking about using jTextPane as little browser window (still don't know how to do it) to show the captcha so the user will know what to write

I'm using eclipse with windowbuilder pro

valid http request

The WebDriver API does not provide access to the HTTP status. There is a lengthy post about the reasons and options to get this information at How to get HTTP Response Code using Selenium WebDriver

You can use the WebDriver API to inspect the result after your submit call. Look for meta tags and page elements unique to error pages at this website. With findElement calls you can ensure their existence within the result page.

In this particular case the server just seems to deliver the same form again. You can reuse your calls from above.

Within your result page of a valid login you can find a logout link by its class name "logout". If the webdriver cannot find that element, your login attempt failed.

    try {
      WebElement logout = driver.findElement(By.className("logout"));
    } catch (NoSuchElementException e) {
      // you are not logged in
    }

Thank you for your help, really appreciate it, what you suggest, continue in this code or using another way ? – M J Jan 19 '19 at 20:37
I do not know how a valid response page of this form looks like. Can you please provide an example? – Jens Dibbern Jan 19 '19 at 20:43
i added it in the post, hope that what you mean, thanks – M J Jan 19 '19 at 21:08
I need to see the HTML source of the result page. The HTTP header you added looks good, but you need page elements to identify. – Jens Dibbern Jan 19 '19 at 21:14
HTML of the response added, please check if it's correct, thanks – M J Jan 19 '19 at 21:23
Thank you very much sir – M J Jan 20 '19 at 17:19
I just learned about seleniumwire and its ability to access http headers with selenium: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54456944/how-to-know-if-my-custom-http-headers-are-being-passed – Jens Dibbern Feb 02 '19 at 11:40
