HTTP client request class 2008.01.03 (Default branch)
01-04-2008
HTTP client is a PHP class to make HTTP requests. It can establish connections via a SOCKS server, send requests via a proxy server, and establish secure connections (HTTPS) with optional SSL client certificates. It supports HTTP authentication mechanisms like HTTP Basic, HTTP Digest, and NTLM (Windows or Samba). It submits POST requests with user-defined form values, file uploading, or with user-defined request bodies. It handles cookies and automatic redirection handling. There is an addon class to log in to Yahoo and execute actions on behalf of the user, like exporting the address book or sending invitations to Yahoo groups. License: BSD License (original) Changes:|

Plack::Test(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Plack::Test(3pm) NAME
Plack::Test - Test PSGI applications with various backends SYNOPSIS
use Plack::Test; # named params test_psgi app => sub { my $env = shift; return [ 200, [ 'Content-Type' => 'text/plain' ], [ "Hello World" ] ], }, client => sub { my $cb = shift; my $req = HTTP::Request->new(GET => "http://localhost/hello"); my $res = $cb->($req); like $res->content, qr/Hello World/; }; use HTTP::Request::Common; # positional params (app, client) my $app = sub { return [ 200, [], [ "Hello "] ] }; test_psgi $app, sub { my $cb = shift; my $res = $cb->(GET "/"); is $res->content, "Hello"; }; DESCRIPTION
Plack::Test is a unified interface to test PSGI applications using HTTP::Request and HTTP::Response objects. It also allows you to run PSGI applications in various ways. The default backend is "Plack::Test::MockHTTP", but you may also use any Plack::Handler implementation to run live HTTP requests against at web server FUNCTIONS
test_psgi test_psgi $app, $client; test_psgi app => $app, client => $client; Runs the client test code $client against a PSGI application $app. The client callback gets one argument $cb, a callback that accepts an "HTTP::Request" object and returns an "HTTP::Response" object. Use HTTP::Request::Common to import shortcuts for creating requests for "GET", "POST", "DELETE", and "PUT" operations. For your convenience, the "HTTP::Request" given to the callback automatically uses the HTTP protocol and the localhost (127.0.0.1 by default), so the following code just works: use HTTP::Request::Common; test_psgi $app, sub { my $cb = shift; my $res = $cb->(GET "/hello"); }; Note that however, it is not a good idea to pass an arbitrary (i.e. user-input) string to "GET" or even "HTTP::Request->new" by assuming that it always represents a path, because: my $req = GET "//foo/bar"; would represent a request for a URL that has no scheme, has a hostname foo and a path /bar, instead of a path //foo/bar which you might actually want. OPTIONS
Specify the Plack::Test backend using the environment variable "PLACK_TEST_IMPL" or $Plack::Test::Impl package variable. The available values for the backend are: MockHTTP (Default) Creates a PSGI env hash out of HTTP::Request object, runs the PSGI application in-process and returns HTTP::Response. Server Runs one of Plack::Handler backends ("Standalone" by default) and sends live HTTP requests to test. ExternalServer Runs tests against an external server specified in the "PLACK_TEST_EXTERNALSERVER_URI" environment variable instead of spawning the application in a server locally. For instance, test your application with the "HTTP::Server::ServerSimple" server backend with: > env PLACK_TEST_IMPL=Server PLACK_SERVER=HTTP::Server::ServerSimple prove -l t/test.t AUTHOR
