Nice proposal, thanks!
I've got a few questions/remarks:
- IMHO, this should be part of the dtest distribution
- Would'nt YAML[1] be more flexible than XML? e.g. :
server_ip: [1.1.1.1]
client_ip: [2.2.2.2, 3.3.3.3, 4.4.4.4]
tests: # Anything not being 'tests' is
# passed to the tested object as-is ...
- /home/test/test1:
server_ip: [5.5.5.5] # ... unless it is overloaded
- /home/test/test2:
- /home/test/test3:
this would lessen the tests's burden of parameter parsing. We could in
particular avoid:
<parameter name="client_ip1" value="2.2.2.2"/>
<parameter name="client_ip2" value="2.2.2.2"/>
- How does the campaign know about a particular test failing? Do we rely
on forwarding the test's TAP output? In that case, the output needs to be
serialized it if several clients are running at the same time.
