Hi Oleg,
I'm not so much interested in testing the HTTP protocol in itself as
much as I'm interested in testing the responsiveness of my application
(mostly file transfer using http client 3.1 for now) in face of
"misbehaving servers". For example, the few scenarios that I have
encountered in real life and that I want to test are:
- Server timing out (so I can test the responsiveness of cancellation
in my app)
- Server never timing out but stalled
- Server returning an OK status despite having only returned a
partial set of bytes
Do you already have setup like these?
Also while graveling through the http client code base I came across
the org.apache.common.httpclient.server package which seems to be a
bit simpler. Do you still recommend its use?
Thx

Hi,
I would like to know if you have an infrastructure simulating servers
with bogus behaviors (returning bogus error codes, servers closing
the
connection in a middle of a transfer without error, etc.) when you
are
testing the client?

Hi Pascal
We use exactly the same set of low level components HttpClient 4.0 is
based on to build test HTTP servers that can be used simulate all
sorts
of protocol deviations and violations.
http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-core/index.html
http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-core/examples.html
These are test servers we are using internally to test HttpCore /
HttpClient code:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpcomponents/httpcore/trunk/module-main/src/test/java/org/apache/http/mockup/
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpcomponents/httpcore/trunk/module-nio/src/test/java/org/apache/http/mockup/
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpcomponents/httpclient/trunk/module-client/src/test/java/org/apache/http/localserver/
Please let me know if you need any additional details about testing a
specific HTTP protocol aspect.
Oleg
