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.

markdown2 README
================
This is a fast and complete Python implementation of Markdown, a text-to-html
markup system as defined here:
http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax
Install
-------
To install it in your Python installation run:
python setup.py install
However, everything you need to run this is in "lib/markdown2.py". If it is
easier for you, you can just copy that file to somewhere on your PythonPath
(to use as a module) or executable path (to use as a script).
Quick Usage
-----------
As a module:
>>> import markdown2
>>> markdown2.markdown("*boo!*") # or use `html = markdown_path(PATH)`
u'<p><em>boo!</em></p>\n'
>>> markdowner = Markdown()
>>> markdowner.convert("*boo!*")
u'<p><em>boo!</em></p>\n'
>>> markdowner.convert("**boom!**")
u'<p><strong>boom!</strong></p>\n'
As a script:
$ python markdown2.py foo.txt > foo.html
See the project pages, "lib/markdown2.py" docstrings and/or
`python markdown2.py --help` for more details.
Project
-------
The python-markdown2 project lives here (subversion repo, issue tracker,
wiki):
http://code.google.com/p/python-markdown2/
To checkout the full sources:
svn checkout http://python-markdown2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ python-markdown2
To report a bug:

License
-------
This project is licensed under the MIT License.
Note that in the subversion repository there are a few files (for the test
suite and performance metrics) that are under different licenses. These files
are *not* included in source packages. See LICENSE.txt for details.
Test Suite
----------
This markdown implementation passes a fairly extensive test suite. To run it:
cd test && python test.py
If you have the [mk](http://svn.openkomodo.com/openkomodo/browse/mk/trunk)
tool installed you can run the test suite with all available Python versions
by running:
mk test
The crux of the test suite is a number of "cases" directories -- each with a
set of matching .text (input) and .html (expected output) files. These are:
tm-cases/ Tests authored for python-markdown2
markdowntest-cases/ Tests from the 3rd-party MarkdownTest package
php-markdown-cases/ Tests from the 3rd-party MDTest package
php-markdown-extra-cases/ Tests also from MDTest package
