        <p> The <b>libpathod.test</b> module is a light, flexible testing layer
        for HTTP clients. It works by firing up a Pathod instance in a separate
        thread, letting you use Pathod's full abilities to generate responses,
        and then query Pathod's internal logs to establish what happened. All
        the mechanics of startup, shutdown, finding free ports and so forth are
        taken care of for you. </p>
