[Http-webtest-general] Overriding what StatusTest considers OK

[Joe <joe...@us...>]

Hello List,

While experimenting with very large http responses, I found out that I 
can easily limit the amount of data which the embedded LWP UserAgent 
will retrieve from the network.

I added a global parameter:

    on_start = { my $wt = shift; $wt->user_agent->max_size(1024); }

This works just fine, except that I get an error message from StatusTest:

    Expected '200' and got: 206 Partial Content

I see tried two possoble directions to solve this issue

1. Override the behaviour of StausTest to consider a result code of 206 
as "OK"
2. Ignore the status test alltogether.

I got stuck in either directions.
I have one additional limiting condition, in that we have WebTest 
installed on a production box, where changing anything in the Perl 
config (and thus installd modules) is rather out of the question.

Cheers,

Joe.
