RED - Resource Expert Droid

RED - Info About your Web Site Functions and Caching.

Resource Expert Droid : http://redbot.org/


RED is a robot that checks HTTP resources to see how they'll behave, pointing out common problems and suggesting improvements. Although it is not a HTTP conformance tester, it can find a number of HTTP-related issues.

What does RED do?

RED interacts with the resource at the provided URL to check for a large number of common HTTP problems, including:

* Invalid syntax in headers
* Ill-formed messages (e.g., bad chunking, incorrect content-length)
* Incorrect gzip encoding
* Missing headers

Additionally, it will tell how well your resource supports a number of HTTP features, like:

* Caching
* Negotiation for compression
* Last-Modified and ETag validation
* Partial content
