---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
 Currently the HTTPT Test Template will only follow the first redirect when
 the class attribute followRedirects is set to True.

 This limits it's usefulness and is counterintuitive. Libraries such as the
 python urrlib2 do not have this behavior.

 When we perform a request with followRedirects set to True we should
 follow all redirects until we get a status code different from 3xx.
