WebTestRecorder 0.1.1
Record activity from a WSGI application, and generate WebTest tests from that record
License: MIT
Keywords: wsgi testing unittest doctest webtest

This package lets you record all the requests and responses of an
application, and then create a doctest from that.  (There's no real
reason it couldn't be a unit test... just haven't written that yet.)

The recorder is a piece of middleware.  You use it like this::

    from webtestrecorder import record_file

    app = ... instantiate app ...
    app = record_file(app, '/tmp/record.txt')

All requests and responses will be written to this file.  You can read
them out like so::

    from webtestrecorder import get_records

    records = get_records(open('/tmp/record.txt', 'rb'))

``records`` is a list of requests, and each request has a
``.response`` attribute.  You can then create a test::

    from webtestrecorder import write_doctest

    write_doctest(records, open('/tmp/doctest.txt', 'wb'))

You can also use this like a shell script::

    $ python -m webtestrecorder < /tmp/record.txt > /tmp/doctest.txt

Apache Logs
-----------

You can read requests and responses from Apache logs via
`webtestrecorder.apachelog.parse_apache_log()`.  A constraint of
this is that request bodies won't be present, and responses just have
a status code and Content-Length, the Content-Type is unknown and the body
is padded with null bytes.

Rerunning requests
------------------

The module `webtestrecorder.http` can take a list of
requests/responses and send them to a server, effectively replaying
requests.  This is also a command-line program usable like::

    $ python -m webtestrecorder.http apache_access.log --host localhost:8000

You can filter or rewrite these requests with a custom filter
function.  See ``python -m webtestrecorder.http -h`` for more.
