Umm, what about MockObjects, HttpUnit, or any of the similar packages that already exist that make this trivial? Why write your own, and worse, make it Tomcat-specific?

Thanks for the response. To be more clear, I'm developing unit tests for code that takes ServletRequests / HttpServletRequests as input, but don't run inside Tomcat at all (they're essentially helpers for servlets). I want to mimic what Tomcat does to create the Request object (but perhaps only for selected fields). Does the MemoryProtocolHandler suggestion apply here? Thanks!
