Basic Authentication

Basic authentication is nothing but setting header

Authorization: <username:password with base64 encoded>

Syntax:

basicauth(<username>, <password>)

Example:

@name('basic auth')

GET http://httpbin.org/basic-auth/foo/bar

basicauth('foo','bar')

Digest Authentication

Digest authentication is one of most used authentication mechanisms.

Syntax:

digestauth(<username>, <password>)

@name(digest)

GET "https://httpbin.org/digest-auth/20202/username/password/md5"

digestauth("username", "password")

@name('simple s3, list buckets')
