For starters the url is incorrect, it's got a

Semicolon mixed by a double quote 

method: POST
   use_proxy: no
   validate_certs: false
   status_code: [200]
   force_basic_auth: yes
   url_username: "test"
   url_password: "test"

"urlopen error tunnel connection failed: 403 forribidden" indicates an
issue with a proxy.
But - there is some sort of typo again there (forribidden).
No problem with being impatient but please pay more attention to your
question/copy/pasting, to avoid wasting everyone's time here.

In any case, you've explicitly configured "use_proxy: no".
This leads me to suspect that your network might have implemented a
transparent proxy.
Can you confirm that the same request, from the same host, but done
manually with curl, does work?
Please post the evidence of that, so we can rule out any proxy issues.
