curl是一个广泛使用的用来上传和下载的命令行工具，当然严格来讲，它还可以有别的用途。对于测试来讲，它是Web相关测试非常实用的工具，包括debugging，使用起来非常方便。而且另一方面，因为它是纯命令行的工具，所以也可以非常方便的作为一个组件集成到automation或者其他的测试框架里面，将HTTP/HTTPS/FTP相关的上传和下载等任务交给它。
最近因为在做web service相关的测试，用到了curl，觉得还不错，顺便给大家介绍一下。
official site:
http://curl.haxx.se/ ， 目前最新的版本是7.20.0。
基本的用法示例
curl http://www.google.com
curl -o f1
ftp://user:pwd@myftp/Ricky/test.ini
curl dict://dict.org/d:test
下面主要介绍一下常用的参数，关于这方面，可以查看它自带的帮助文档。

-r [start-end], such as "-r 0-1024"
curl -i -r 0-1024 -o rfc1.txt http://xml.resource.org/public/rfc/bibxml3/rdf/item.I-D.6man-pmip6-ind.rdf
header:

HTTP/1.1

curl -i -r 0-1024 http://www.sina.com.cn -o sina_part1.htm
it will give you all the page.
-k insecure SSL , will not check the cert
curl -k https://ip:8445
-T upload a file with FTP
curl -T curl.html -u user:pwd
ftp://myftp/Ricky/
execute once again will overwrite
-F/--form <name=content>, use for http post
curl -F password=@/etc/passwd www.mypasswords.com
You can also tell curl what Content-Type to use by using 'type=', in a manner similar to:
curl -F "web=@index.html;type=text/html" url.com
最后顺便说一下，如果是用来做HTTP的测试和调试，希望有GUI的话，也有不少其它的工具可以选择，包括Fiddler，JMeter和Firefox的tamper data插件。
