User-Agent: ExampleBrowser/1.0
Accept: */*

"""

And here's the expected response:

expected_response = """
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: text/html
Content-Length: 20

Bears, Lions, Tigers

def parse(request) do
  # TODO: Parse the request string into a map:
  conv = %{ method: "GET", path: "/wildthings", resp_body: "" }
end

def route(conv) do
  # TODO: Create a new map that also has the response body:
  conv = %{ method: "GET", path: "/wildthings", resp_body: "Bears, Lions, Tigers" }
end

def format_response(conv) do
  # TODO: Use values in the map to create an HTTP response string:
  """
  HTTP/1.1 200 OK
  Content-Type: text/html
  Content-Length: 20

  Bears, Lions, Tigers
  """
