<p>Let's create a text-based imposter with multiple stubs.  Binary imposters won't
see any interesting behavior difference with only <code>startsWith</code> predicates:</p>

<testScenario name='tcp startsWith example'>
    <step type='http'>
<pre><code>POST /imposters HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:<%= port %>
Accept: application/json
Content-Type: application/json

{
  "port": 4548,
  "protocol": "tcp",
  "mode": "text",
  "stubs": [<strong class='highlight1'>
    {
      "responses": [{ "is": { "data": "first response" } }],
      "predicates": [{ "startsWith": { "data": "first" } }]
    }</strong>,<strong class='highlight2'>
    {
      "responses": [{ "is": { "data": "second response" } }],
      "predicates": [{ "startsWith": { "data": "second" } }]
    }</strong>,<strong class='highlight3'>
    {
      "responses": [{ "is": { "data": "third response" } }],
      "predicates": [{ "startsWith": { "data": "second" } }]
    }</strong>
  ]
}</code></pre>
    </step>

<p>The match is not case-sensitive:</p>

    <step type='exec'>
<pre><code>echo '<strong class='highlight1'>FIRST REQUEST</strong>' | nc localhost 4548</code></pre>

        <assertResponse>
<pre><code><strong class='highlight1'>first response</strong></code></pre>
        </assertResponse>
    </step>

<p>The same is true for the second stub.</p>

    <step type='exec'>
<pre><code>echo '<strong class='highlight2'>Second Request</strong>' | nc localhost 4548</code></pre>

        <assertResponse>
<pre><code><strong class='highlight2'>second response</strong></code></pre>
        </assertResponse>
    </step>

<p>The third stub will never run, since it matches the same requests as the
second stub.  mountebank always chooses the first stub that matches based on
the order you add them to the <code>stubs</code> array when creating the
imposter.</p>

    <step type='http'>
<code class='hidden'>DELETE /imposters/4548 HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:<%= port %>
Accept: application/json</code>
    </step>
</testScenario>
