HTTP 206 Partial Content

The response carries only the byte range you asked for with a Range header, described by Content-Range. This is how resumable downloads and media seeking work.

Why you would test it

Verify the range you receive is the range you requested, and that Content-Range agrees with the body length — off-by-one errors here corrupt files silently.
