# -*- coding: utf-8 -*- """ Testing using the Test Client The test client is a class that can act like a simple browser for testing purposes. It allows the user to compose GET and POST requests, and obtain the response that the server gave to those requests. The server Response objects are annotated with the details of the contexts and templates that were rendered during the process of serving the request. ``Client`` objects are stateful - they will retain cookie (and thus session) details for the lifetime of the ``Client`` instance. This is not intended as a replacement for Twill, Selenium, or other browser automation frameworks - it is here to allow testing against the contexts and templates produced by a view, rather than the HTML rendered to the end-user.
