HTTPolice is a **validator or “linter” for HTTP requests and responses**.

It can spot bad header syntax, inappropriate status codes, and other potential

problems in your HTTP server or client.

See `example report`__.

__ https://httpolice.readthedocs.io/page/showcase.html

As a command-line tool, it can read `HAR files`__ or raw HTTP/1.x TCP streams.

It can `integrate with mitmproxy`__ for TLS-encrypted and HTTP/2 traffic.

Or you can use it as a Python (3.4+) library.

There is a `Django integration`__ package and a third-party `Chrome extension`__.

Start with the `quickstart`__.

__ https://httpolice.readthedocs.io/page/quickstart.html

A full `user manual`__ is available.

Also, a `list of all problems`__ HTTPolice can detect.

HTTPolice was partly inspired by `REDbot`__, another QA tool for the Web.

But the approach is different: instead of actively testing your server,

HTTPolice just analyzes anything you feed into it.

Thus, it can be used on requests and responses captured

from a real process or test suite.
