How to do testing of HTTP client

Question

I am working on an HTTP client. I want to test its behavior for different HTTP Status codes, cookies etc. Is there any website or any other method to do so.

Answer 1

Your question is vague, but here's an answer to what I think you are asking.

You have a few choices.

First, you can simply get an account cheaply or free. That's easily enough done, but you won't have a lot of control at the server end in case you need it.

Second, you can set up a local web server and code against that. You have quite a few choices; please Google IIS or Apache for starters (depending on your platform). You can even get a full bundle like EasyPHP or WAMP if you want to take advantage of some of the extras they offer.
