Title: A Test Environment for HTTP Requests
Description: Testing and documenting code that communicates with remote
        servers can be painful. Dealing with authentication, server
        state, and other complications can make testing seem too costly
        to bother with. But it doesn't need to be that hard. This
        package enables one to test all of the logic on the R sides of
        the API in your package without requiring access to the remote
        service. Importantly, it provides three contexts that mock the
        network connection in different ways, as well as testing
        functions to assert that HTTP requests were---or were
        not---made. It also allows one to safely record real API
        responses to use as test fixtures. The ability to save
        responses and load them offline also enables one to write
        vignettes and other dynamic documents that can be distributed
        without access to a live server.
