# Ktor

### Setup

{% hint style="info" %}
In order to use the Ktor-extension it's required to have the [**skrapeit-core**](/docs/overview/setup.md#getting-super-powers) artifact in the classpath as well as having a proper Ktor setup up and running.
{% endhint %}

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Maven" %}
{% code title="pom.xml" %}

```markup
<dependency>
   <groupId>it.skrape</groupId>
   <artifactId>skrapeit-core</artifactId>
   <version>LATEST</version>
   <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
   <groupId>it.skrape</groupId>
   <artifactId>skrapeit-ktor</artifactId>
   <version>LATEST</version>
   <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
```

{% endcode %}
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Gradle" %}
{% code title="build.gradle.kts" %}

```kotlin
testCompile("it.skrape:skrapeit-core:+")
testCompile("it.skrape:skrapeit-ktor:+")
```

{% endcode %}
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

### How to Use

The [**skrape{it}**](/docs/master.md) **Ktor-extension** will extend Ktor's `TestApplicationResponse` with an`expectHtml{}` lambda function. The scope of the lambda will give you a parsed response body (deserialized to a `Doc`) and enables you to make comfortable assumptions about the content, properties and structure of the document.&#x20;
