Description

Tests WSGI web applications by sending simulated HTTP requests and checking the responses from Python code. It helps developers verify forms, redirects, status codes, cookies, and page output without running a full browser test.

Use it in automated test suites. Test inputs can exercise authentication and user data paths, so keep fixtures realistic and avoid exposing real credentials in test logs.
