Retry Post on getsockopt: connection refused

[nickwales]

The sample POST test exits immediately when there is no server on the other end. (e.g. changing 9000 to 9001)

Any suggestions on how to handle retrying this?

Hi @nickwales ,
I added a new case the the sample code that shows that max retries is honored for posting when there is no server on the other end. Let me know if things are still unclear. I'll close out this issue in a few days if I don't hear back. Cheers!

	log.Println("> pester.Post with retries to non-existant url")
	{
		client := pester.New()
		client.MaxRetries = 3
		client.KeepLog = true

		_, err := client.Post("http://localhost:9001", "application/json", strings.NewReader(`{"json":true}`))
		if err == nil {
			log.Printf("expected to error after max retries of 3")
		}

		if len(client.ErrLog) != 3 {
			log.Fatalf("expected 3 error logs, got %d: %v", len(client.ErrLog), client.ErrLog)
		}
		log.Printf("POST: %v\n\n", err)
	}
