Hi all, Now that there's coverage stats, I'm eager to add some unit tests for parts of the project that don't currently have any coverage.
From https://github.com/curl/curl/blob/master/tests/README, one of the requirements is that you have Python. Is it therefore allowed to write test servers in Python? My Perl is pretty non-existent at this point! Also, what's the policy on using third party executables to provide test functionality - is that something that should be encouraged or should it be a last resort? My gut feeling would be that requiring more dependencies is bad for testing, so trying to keep tests "in-house" is better. (The specific case I'm thinking of is for the DICT protocol, which currently has 0% coverage - there are a number of open source servers available, but a simple server could be created in Python to provide a very simplified DICT server) Thanks, Max ------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe: https://cool.haxx.se/list/listinfo/curl-library Etiquette: https://curl.haxx.se/mail/etiquette.html
