robotframework-httplibrary

robotframework-httplibrary is a Robot Framework test library for all your HTTP needs. It uses livetest (which, in turn uses the famous webtest library underneath).

Installation

You can install robotframework-httplibrary via pip:

pip install --upgrade robotframework-httplibrary

Usage

API documentation can be found at http://peritus.github.com/robotframework-httplibrary/, here is an example on how to use it:

Compatibility

This library is only tested on CPython. It might work on Jython, not sure.

Development

If you want to hack on this library itself, this should get you started:

# bootstrap development environment
git clone https://github.com/peritus/robotframework-httplibrary.git
cd robotframework-httplibrary/
python bootstrap.py
./bin/buildout

# run tests
./bin/robotframework tests/

I’m very happy about patches, pull-requests and API-discussions (as this is mostly a wrapper supposed to have a nice API)!

License

Beerware: If we meet some day, and you think this stuff is worth it (or need a more serious license), you can buy me a beer in return.
