Thejas M Nair commented on HCATALOG-182:
----------------------------------------
bq. Is there a reason this shells out to call curl instead of just using
LWP/native perl methods to do HTTP?
(Question is regarding how e2e test harness invokes the HTTP requests). The
examples in documentation use curl commands, so I wanted to make sure that it
works well with curl. Using curl command also makes it easy to debug - you can
just copy-paste the curl command and run it separately.
