Statuscoder, easily get any HTTP status code for testing▲54
I recently wanted to test how a part of a web app responded to a 502 HTTP status code from a remote site from which it was pulling data. When I came to test it, the remote site was working fine, but I still wanted the 502. So I created statuscoder, just append your desired status code to the URL and it'll respond with that code. http://statuscoder.com It's my first single-use project and I like its simplicity - it does one job and (hopefully) does it well. Is there anything else that you'd want to see it do?
