byteblowerll.byteblower.HTTPClient

class byteblowerll.byteblower.HTTPClient(*args, **kwargs)

HTTP client application that may schedule HTTP requests to real webservers or the HTTP server application.

Using this class, you can simulate TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) traffic The TCP is simulated by a HTML request to the HTTPServer. This is the HttpClient that will perform the GET or the PUT. This request can be sent to the HTTPServer or even a real HTTPServer.

httpClient = port.ProtocolHttpClientAdd()
httpClient.RemoteAddressSet('1.1.1.1')

httpClient.CaptureEnable()
httpClient.RequestDurationSet(10 * 1000)
httpClient.ReceiveWindowScalingValueSet(7)
httpClient.SlowStartThresholdSet(2000000000)
httpClient.RequestStart()

__init__(*args, **kwargs)

Initialize self. See help(type(self)) for accurate signature.
