[Dev] TestMaker 5 project ideas

[bongos amigos]

Frank,

One area that could be look into for Project 5 is MIMEType handler. Rightnow, the mime handler is not flexible and very limited. I am working of a project right now that implements a simple and non-standard web services using java servlet. This implementation sends an encrypted binary content to client request's. Even though this implementation is not a standard web service with attachement, there are a lot or real world implementation would use this simple solution. Testmaker archetechture does not provide a plugin mimetype handler that allow s testing of  this  scenario.

What statistics would be useful to you?

JavaScript and AJAX applications make HTTP requests to the server. Do  
you want TestMaker to emulate those calls? Will you please describe  
this in a little more detail?

Excellent idea. I hate the current logging and plan to introduce new  
logging features. Yours is a good list.
