After talking to Tim, I wanted to start committing to HEAD some test harnesses that will exercise internal bits of Samba, such as StrCaseCmp to start with.
These will be small C files that link to -lbigballofmud and allow particular functions to be exercised from the command line, with a view to eventually calling them from a Python testing framework. They compile to relatively small executables, and they won't be built by default. What is a good location for the source? torture/ seems to be the closest existing directory. -- Martin
