HTTP authentication

What this tests. Basic auth with a 401 challenge, a bearer token, and a third area that answers 404 until you send credentials it never asks for.

The rule. Three areas, each listing five products. The username is reader and the password is paper-lantern-7; the bearer token is nw-test-bearer-3f9c2a71d04e. The Basic area answers 401 with a WWW-Authenticate challenge, which most HTTP clients answer for you. The bearer area wants Authorization: Bearer …. The hidden area takes the same Basic credentials but never asks for them: without them it says 404, so a client that waits for a challenge never gets in.
