Maintenance: remove httpbin.org request from integration tests

[dreamorosi]

Summary

To test Tracer's capture http requests feature the integration tests have a few requests to a 3rd party service called httpbin.org.

At the moment the service appears to be unreachable (504). While I expect the service to come back online, it's a good moment to remove it and use another one that we have more control over.

Why is this needed?

To remove the dependency from the 3rd party service and continue to be able to run integration tests successfully.

Which area does this relate to?

Tests

Solution

Change the host to which the request is made and add a timeout so that if the host is unreachable the tests will fail fast.

Acknowledgment

• This request meets Lambda Powertools Tenets
• Should this be considered in other Lambda Powertools languages? i.e. Python, Java
