Not as far as I know. Not sure what you mean by standardization when it
comes to HTTP testing. Maybe you're thinking about WSGI? In this case,
Titus has a WSGI-intercept module that makes it very easy to test a
WSGI-enabled Web application without actually starting an HTTP server,
but instead running it in-process.
