    4. WEBSERVER_BASIC_AUTH: A web server with basic HTTP authentication.
  2. Ensure the Package-x-generic-16.pnghttping package is installed.

How to test

  1. Run HTTPing against WEBSERVER : httping -g http://WEBSERVER/
  2. Run HTTPing against WEBSERVER_ALTPORT: httping -h WEBSERVER_ALTPORT -p 8000
  3. Run HTTPing against WEBSERVER_HTTPS: httping -l -g https://WEBSERVER_HTTPS/
  4. Run HTTPing against WEBSERVER_BASIC_AUTH: httping -g http://WEBSERVER_BASIC_AUTH/ -A -U USERNAME -P PASSWORD
