Message Class

Message is the a basic operation of Hummingbird TestFramework. It can be a message sent to target server, or an message received by Hummingbird virtualized service. A Message object stores the Status of the operation, the Direction and several time tags.

If the operation is send, RequestObject contains the data sent to the server, and ResponseObject stores the response of the server

If the operation is receive, RequestObject contains the data received by virtualized service, and ResponseObject stores the simulated reply
