web: add basic tests This patch adds a new test module `test_web` to automate testing of web requests. For now the tests are rather simple and only check for expected status codes. To set up the flask app within the tests, it has to be configured properly. This is the reason why the app configuration part in `web.py` has been moved into an own function - now it may also be used by the test module.

:orphan: Welcome to Flask ================ .. image:: _static/logo-full.png :alt: Flask: web development, one drop at a time :class: floatingflask Welcome to Flask's documentation. This documentation is divided into different parts. I recommend that you get started with :ref:`installation` and then head over to the :ref:`quickstart`. Besides the quickstart there is also a more detailed :ref:`tutorial` that shows how to create a complete (albeit small) application with Flask. If you'd rather dive into the internals of Flask, check out the :ref:`api` documentation. Common patterns are described in the :ref:`patterns` section. Flask depends on two external libraries: the `Jinja2`_ template engine and the `Werkzeug`_ WSGI toolkit. These libraries are not documented here. If you want to dive into their documentation check out the following links: - `Jinja2 Documentation <http://jinja.pocoo.org/2/documentation/>`_ - `Werkzeug Documentation <http://werkzeug.pocoo.org/documentation/>`_ .. _Jinja2: http://jinja.pocoo.org/2/ .. _Werkzeug: http://werkzeug.pocoo.org/ .. include:: contents.rst.inc
