Configuring the HTTP template
A feature that uses the HTTP template performs the HTTP operation to measure the time it takes the
NQA client to obtain data from an HTTP server.
The expected data is checked only when the data is configured and the HTTP response contains the
Content-Length field in the HTTP header.
The status code of the HTTP packet is a three-digit field in decimal notation, and it includes the
status information for the HTTP server. The first digit defines the class of response.
Configure the HTTP server before you perform the HTTP operation.
