I think about an new major release for httest with signifcant syntax 
changes. But still not sure how to do this. Here is a sample it could 
look like:

CLIENT
     store = {}
     function foo(a)
     end

     function bla(c)
     end

     foo("hallo")
     bla("heho")

     auto_close(true)

     connect(
       "https://127.0.0.1:8080",
       ssl:set_cert("foo.cert.pem", "foo.key.pem", "foo.ca.pem")
     )

     __GET / HTTP/1.1
     __Host: localhost:8080
     __
     expect(body, "foo")
     match(header, "Set-Cookie: mycookie=([^;]+)" cookie)
     wait()

     bps(200, function()
         __GET / HTTP/1.1
         __Host: localhost:8080
         __Cookie: mycookie=$cookie
         __
         wait()
     end)

     for i=1,10 do
         __GET / HTTP/1.1
         __Host: localhost:8080
         __
         expect(body, "foo");
         wait()
     end
END

But this looks not that readable as the old syntax. It is a mixup of lua 
and httest syntax. The only command I would make with httest would be __ 
and _-. Then I need a compilation step to embedd this httest commands to 
lua.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks
