pathod Description

pathod is a pathological HTTP/HTTPS daemon, useful for testing and torturing HTTP clients. At pathod's heart is a tiny, terse language for crafting HTTP responses. The simplest way to use pathod is to fire up the daemon, and specify the response behaviour you want using this language in the request URL. Here's a minimal example: http://localhost:9999/p/200Everything after the "/p/" path component is a response specifier - in this case just a vanilla 200 OK response. See the complete docs to get (much) fancier. You can also add anchors to the pathod server that serve a fixed response whenever a matching URL is requested: pathod --anchor "/foo=200"Here, "/foo" a regex specifying the anchor path, and the part after the "=" is a response specifier.pathod also has a nifty built-in web interface, which lets you play with the language by previewing responses, exposes activity logs, online help and various other goodies. Try it by visiting the server root: http://localhost:9999Product's homepage
