* An authentication scheme should be able to support the following
* functions:
*
* - Parse and process the challenge sent by the target server
* in response to request for a protected resource
*
- Provide its textual org.testifyproject.testifyprojectsignation
*
- Provide its parameters, if available
*
- Provide the realm this authentication scheme is applicable to,
* if available
*
- Generate authorization string for the given set of credentials
* and the HTTP request in response to the authorization challenge.
*
*
* Authentication schemes may be stateful involving a series of
* challenge-response exchanges.
*
* IMPORTANT: implementations of this interface MUST also implement {@link ContextAwareAuthScheme}
* interface in order to remain API org.testifyproject.testifyprojectpatible with newer versions of HttpClient.
