HTTP Werkzeug is an HTTP send/receive tool, which lets make requests to Web servers and view the HTTP sent and received, and lets you capture the HTTP sent by a browser. It takes care of some of the technicalities for you: Host, Referer and User-Agent request header lines can all be generated for you, POST arguments can be entered into a dialog box, and it is supplied with a customisable selection of User-Agent lines to choose from. HTTP Werkzeug can be considered as a graphical cURL, although giving it the feature set of cURL is the program’s Holy Grail. A transcript window is available to view your generated requests, which can be set to record the request header, reply header, or both, for each request. As well as sending requests, you can also have a browser send HTTP Werkzeug a request, and it will show you the HTTP that the browser produced. This allows you to test a server by mimicing the types of requests that different browsers make, the User-Agent line in particular. UpdatesThe latest alpha build is version 1.3a4 (March 28th 2008): see the development builds directory. 1.3a4 no longer crashes if the settings are missing or very outdated; it also adds support for the full range of HTTP 1.1 redirect response codes. The 1.3 walkthrough shows what’s changed so far in the alpha builds, as a clear indication of where the program was going.
