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.

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.

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.

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.

milestone: SSSD Future releases (no date set yet) => SSSD Patches welcome

Thank you for taking time to submit this request for SSSD. Unfortunately this issue was not given priority and the team lacks the capacity to work on it at this time.

Given that we are unable to fulfill this request I am closing the issue as wontfix.

If the issue still persist on recent SSSD you can request re-consideration of this decision by reopening this issue. Please provide additional technical details about its importance to you.

Thank you for understanding.
