How to test my proxy application on localhost?

[ragnonerodocet]

Hi,

I have created a java method that take as arguments 2 object: httpServletRequest and httpServletRespose.

This class must simply analyze remote http requests and return http responses.

How can I test my application on localhost?

public void processImage(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) {

//process request

//write response

}

Thank you

Adriano.

you mean outside of a servlet ? there is the concept of "Mock" objects, such as in springframework or "easymock" project, that provide stub implementations for interfaces, such as a stand alone faked HttpServletRequest, that you would populate such as inside a unit test case in a stand alone executable outside of a servlet container.

That is only good for offline testing. for testing inside a servlet container (deployed on the localhost), you would need to invoke the servlet with a http client. to do this programatically, it is usually possible to create a HTTP GET or POST message using something such as the commons-httpclient, where a unit test case would invoke the http client, that you have built to generate the appropriate request

You can urge it much safer if you will use <a href='http://proxy.my-addr.com'>proxy surf</a>. All transportation is sniffing via your provider, it's your chance...
