I am writing the test of a C++ application. I have access the C++
source code but prefer not to alter it.

It requires a lot of work to mock the HTTP server. Besides, I need
some reliable mechanism to redirect the HTTP requests issued by the

<br>
TwistedSim enables the user to run his code in a reproducible
network environment.<br>
<br>
It may be Python specific though.<br>
