 ## Set up
 1. Set up a web server of your choice.
 2. Depending on your web server, drop the corresponding project files in your web server's document root (or a sub-directory, if you wish). What `src/main/webapp/post.*` file to choose depends on your web server. The upload test needs to be able to send a POST request to the server. The receiving page doesn't have to do anything with the data. However, some servers will not allow you to send a POST request to a .htm file. Therefore, the project includes several blank server side script files (post.aspx, post.php, post.pl). `src/main/webapp/test.bin` is mandatory, but it's nothing more than random bytes.
