This module is a test harness for ClearPress-based applications which
roughly fakes an incoming HTTP request without needing any network
connectivity or web server. It works by setting various required
environment variables then calling into the application's request
handler.
t:request also exports some useful functions for helping with
tests. See below for functions matching "is_*".SUBROUTINES/METHODS
