1 Monkeysphere test infrastructure
2 ================================
4 These are scripts to test various aspects of the Monkeysphere system.
6 Some notes about getting started working on the monkeysphere test
9 - the tests can and should be run as a non-privileged user. since the
10 tests do potentially destructive things (like wiping out and
11 recreating gpg keyrings) they should definitely *not* be run as
12 root. it may even be advisable to run them as a different,
13 dedicated user, so that any goofs you make while updating the test
14 infrastructure don't compromise your main account.
16 - you do not need the monkeysphere package installed locally, though
17 you will need the monkeysphere dependencies installed locally.
19 - the idea with this script is to do the following:
21 - set up test server infrastructure
22 - test the server setup
24 - test an ssh connection between test user and test server
25 - modify server/user setup and rerun ssh_test to make sure it
26 suceeds/fails as expected
28 - there are various FIXMEs in the script that outline some of the
29 further testing that should be undertaken.
31 - good documentation in the code in the form of comments are needed.
