Hi all,
We have recently worked in colloboration with Poul-Henning Kamp to
use varnishtest regression testing (script driven) tool for Varnish
HTTP Cache so that to modify it and make it capable of also test
haproxy.
Note that here we are speaking about *regression* testing which has
nothing to see with others classes of tests (unit, integration,
performance etc). The aim of such tests is: to prevent old bugs from
coming back!
A nice reference manual for varnishtest may be bound here:
https://varnish-cache.org/docs/6.0/reference/varnishtest.html
In a few words, varnishtest program is able to start HTTP clients
and servers and put a varnish-cache processus (or several) in the
middle to test it, making these clients and servers interact with
each others. So, here we wanted to do the same thing for haproxy.
Of course, it will not always be possible to write a regression test
script for each bug to come.
Please find attached to this mail a first patch to document how to
use varnishtest regression testing tool with haproxy and help you to
write regression test files.
We will have to discuss about how to organize the test files for
these regressions tests.
A big thank you to Poul-Henning Kamp for having helped us during
this interesting project.
Regards,
Fred.
Well... this is patch matching with the previous text file.
WOW ;-)
I hope you are planning to add this doc into the git-repo:/doc.
Fred
