Hi, webkit-dev,

I'd like to propose to use mod_pywebsocket
http://code.google.com/p/pywebsocket/
to test WebKit's implementation of Web Socket.

To do that, we need to install mod_python and mod_pywebsocket to
the Apache HTTP server used for testing WebKit. (I assume mod_ssl is
already there.)

I think I can modify .conf files under LayoutTests/http/conf but need
instruction
as to how to ensure that each test server has mod_python and mod_pywebsocket
installed. Can anyone help? Any pointers or examples?

The WebKit regression tests use the system version of Apache on each platform that they run on. mod_python and mod_pywebsocket are not Apache modules that are included out of the box on most platforms, which makes them difficult to use in our regression tests. I recall work was done on a server implementation for WebSocket regression testing that was written purely in Python. What happened to that? Why was that simple approach dropped in favor of an approach that requires multiple third-party Apache modules to be built and installed?
