I think I know the answer but here goes...

I want to create an App that check's a series of URL's to ensure the health
of external websites

It needs to check

1 status code (200, 500, 401, etc)
2 text matching in the response body to prove that the content is what's
expected (make sure I didn't receive another page in error)
3 check response headers would be great too but I'm pushing it I think.

Now I can do all this with the qx.io.remote.Request Object and even use an
qx.ui.embed.Iframe for visual confirmation. I also was considering running
this out of the Test Runner (using qx.test.ui.LayoutTestCase) as it would
give a nice structured approach.

Where I get stuck is that I actually wanted to run this off the file system
rather than a web server so that a tester can deploy the tool where ever
needed (test different end points for connectivity etc) and run it locally.
Remote Requests barf because due to the same Origin policy. The Iframe still
works but I don't think I can gather all the information I need from it.

Any ideas or is it back to the drawing board???

Thanks!
