#1127 Create test program for krb5_child and ldap_child
Closed: wontfix 4 years ago by pbrezina. Opened 12 years ago by sgallagh.

Currently, it's difficult to debug the krb5_child and ldap_child processes, as they are forked from the sssd_be process.

It would be a good idea for long-term maintenance if we wrote a simulator that could invoke these children directly and pass sample input to the child.

Note that I implemented a test program for the krb5_child when I was developing the dircache feature.

It needs extending and there is no ldap_child test program.

Moving all the features planned for 1.10 release into 1.10 beta.

The scope is to implement an ldap_child test program, krb5_child test already exists. Since we don't plan any changes to the ldap_child, I think we can push this one out.

milestone: SSSD 1.12 beta => SSSD 1.14 beta

We ended up implementing full integration tests which serve a very similar purpose, albeit less programmable maybe.

Since we have integration tests, I think it's fine to defer this one.

selected: Not need => May

Most of the functionality would be covered by integration tests. Some corner cases might still be nice to be tested with unit tests, but I think this ticket can safely be deferred.
