Extract from HttpUnit doc: "Written in Java, HttpUnit emulates the relevant portions of browser behavior, including form submission, basic http authentication, cookies and automatic page redirection, and allows Java test code to examine returned pages as text, an XML DOM, or containers of forms, tables, and links.
The JUnit task can be used to invoke HttpUnit.

Subject: HTTP request task available

I wrote an enhanced version of the "get" task, that allows the user to:
 
* Retrieve the contents of any URL, or alternatively access that URL but then discard the results (useful for causing some side effect on the server)
* Simulate the submission of an HTML form, using either GET or POST methods.
* Set arbitrary HTTP headers.
 
I'd like to contribute this class to the ant team, so that it will be included with the normal builds. Can someone tell me what I need to do to accomplish this?
 
Thanks,
 
Matt Humphrey
