WebMock::Util::Headers.normalize_headers downcases characters in header keys

[ulyssesrex]

This stub, chained with with(), will never match its intended request...

stub_request(:post, /urlmatcher/).
  with(headers: { 
    "SOAPAction" => "https://some.soap.endpoint/where/things/happen" 
  })

because the stub's HeadersPattern has been normalized and no longer matches the given header. Note Soapaction instead of SOAPAction.

#<WebMock::HeadersPattern:0x00007fe38db8b078                                                                                                             
     @pattern={"Soapaction"=>"https://www.assuresign.net/Services/DocumentNOW/Envelopes/IEnvelopeService/CreateEnvelope"}>

@ulyssesrex thank you for pointing that. SOAPAction is indeed a culprit. I guess this can be changed in WebMock but with major version change in WebMock as I it would break many existing WebMock setups, where people set header expectations using e.g lowercase.

The normalized form of headers which is enforced by HTTP/2 is lowercase.

Thank you for the input @ioquatix It's only for HTTP/2 right?

[ioquatix]

It's also for HTTP/1.

HTTP/2 just makes it an error and servers will drop the connection.

Just FYI, this will become standard rack behaviour too: rack/rack#1592
