HT: HTTP Testing Made Easy

End-to-end testing of HTTP requests/responses is easy with Go.

Writing and maintaining high level test is even easier with ht.

Goals

ht tries to achieve the following:

Make generating all common HTTP requests easy.
Provide high- and low-level checks on the received response.
Make measuring response times easy.

Non-Goals

ht is not the jack of all trades in testing web applications:

Simulating different browsers is not done.
Simulating interactions in a browser is not done.

Installation

Installing ht should be simple if Go 1.5 and git are available and working:

Run GO15VENDOREXPERIMENT=1 go get github.com/vdobler/ht/cmd/ht which should download, compile and install everything.
Run $GOPATH/bin/ht help to get you started.
For a quick check of a HTML page do a

$GOPATH/bin/ht quick <URL-of-HTML-page>

and check the generated Report.html file.

If you want to run checks on rendered HTML pages you need a local installation of PhantomJS in version >= 2.0. See http://phantomjs.org .

Documentation

For a start have a look at the

Tutorial https://github.com/vdobler/ht/blob/master/cmd/ht/Tutorial.md

or the

Showcase here https://github.com/vdobler/ht/tree/master/showcase

The showcase is pretty nonsensical but show almost all features in just a few files. You might want to $ go run showcase.go to have a dummy server listening on localhost:8080 to run the tests against: $ ht exec showcase.suite

For details see the the godoc for reference:
