Testing the server

The easiest method of testing server functionality, online or offline, is to use a tool enabling requests to be easily be mocked and sent to the server. As mentioned elsewhere in the wiki, Postman is a free graphical tool to construct and send requests to online or offline resources.

The request protocol (GET, POST) can be specified alongisde the destination URL, and contents of the request (in key-value format) can be specified under the Params tab. After sending the request, the console will display the server's response or any errors that occur.
