I wrote a HTTP server module for testing HTTP clients. My advice is to just avoid the HTTP transfer and use file:// URIs to fetch a canned copy of a known good page from disk instead.
If you really, really want to embark on doing a full end-to-end test with a HTTP server that serves a canned copy of the modem pages, have a look at Test::HTTP::LocalServer, which provides a set of canned responses and can easily be extended to serve canned files as well. But still, it is far easier to substitute the base URI for accessing the modem to be a file:// URI instead.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
