Interface HttpClientFactory

All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultHttpClientFactory

public interface HttpClientFactory

Factory for creating HttpClient instances.

This interface allows external modules (such as karate-gatling) to provide custom HttpClient implementations, for example with a shared connection pool for performance testing scenarios.

The default implementation DefaultHttpClientFactory creates a new ApacheHttpClient instance for each call, which is the standard behavior for functional tests where isolation is preferred.
