The "HTTP response with specific status code" app


Go to Frontpage Next Article

I've recently found the need to test how my applications behave against HTTP responses with different status codes, and created a small app on Google App Engine which returns a HTTP response with a specific status code:

httpstatus.appspot.com

Update: The source code is available here

It's interesting to see how different browsers handle responses with various status codes. For example, Safari 3.1.2 returns a "kCFErrorDomainCFNetwork" error for status code 100 and Firefox 3.0.1 offers me to download a "Untyped Binary Data" file.
