                          b. obtaining a response associated with said request from a                          

                                data source, said data source containing a plurality of

                                plurality of responses, each acceptable request being                          

                                associated with a response that describes the expected                         

                                behavior of said target computing system upon receiving

                          c. responding as described by said response associated with                          

                                said request.
