Compatibility
This library is only tested on CPython. It might work on Jython, not sure.
Development
If you want to hack on this library itself, this should get you started:
# bootstrap development environment git clone https://github.com/peritus/robotframework-httplibrary.git cd robotframework-httplibrary/ python bootstrap.py ./bin/buildout # run tests ./bin/robotframework tests/
I’m very happy about patches, pull-requests and API-discussions (as this is mostly a wrapper supposed to have a nice API)!

Beerware: If we meet some day, and you think this stuff is worth it (or need a more serious license), you can buy me a beer in return.
