Here are some contrived examples that you can run.
- connects to http://status.github.com/api/status.json on port 80 and expects to be redirected to https://status.github.com/api/status.json with a 301.
- then tests https://status.github.com/api/status.json and FAILs if github is reporting issues on their status page.
- Expect the final test of site speed to fail as 200ms is typically about half the normal page load time for https://status.github.com.

- tests an RFC1918 (won't work out of the box) address by trying to PUT data to it and verifying the result.

- tests an https endpoint which has an issue with it's certificate
