After the latest move by httpbin to HTTPS, apparently all sites that accepted test REST requests have disappeared. I've checked all mentioned in this post, and either they do not allow all kind of requests, or have also moved to HTTPS. For Raku modules such as this one, LWP::Simple, we need a HTTP-only site due to problems with certain operating systems. So is there any site left or will we have to roll out our own server?

2Feels to me that for testing, you would need to roll out a server anyway, as you want to be able to run the test in a firewalled environment. And running an HTTP server in Perl 6 is not that difficult nowadays?Elizabeth Mattijsen– Elizabeth Mattijsen2018-04-27 19:42:52 +00:00Commented Apr 27, 2018 at 19:42

You can use http://eu.httpbin.org. This URL doesn't redirect http to https.

http://eu.httpbin.org doesn't seem to work. http://httpbin.org/ does though however.http://www.neverssl.com/ and http://neverssl.com/ are another good options. They will never use HTTPS/SSL.
