Use net/http/httptest for HTTP Go Testing

No need to start up a full web server to test web client code in Go.

	// setup mock web service
	handler := http.HandlerFunc(
		func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
			fmt.Fprintf(w, `{"word":"hello","name":"Rob"}`)
		})
	svr := httptest.NewServer(handler)
	defer svr.Close()
  // then use svr.URL for everything

And to set the status

     w.WriteHeader(http.StatusBadRequest)
