testsuite

An unofficial partially-automated test suite meant to approximate the official test suite at test.activitypub.rocks.

The official test suite is known to be down.

While it would be nice to get that one back up, it also only partially automated only the C2S tests. This test suite aims to partially automate C2S, S2S, and common tests.

Contributions needed & welcome.

See this go-fed issue for the old test suite's lists of tests.

How To Use

Go to test.activitypub.dev and follow the instructions.

If you'd like to run it yourself, you will need a free domain name under which to run this server because sending anything over the localhost interface is explicitly a failing test case. You will also need a set of TLS keys and certificates, I recommend Let's Encrypt.

go get github.com/go-fed/testsuite
go install github.com/go-fed/testsuite
./$GOPATH/bin/testsuite \
  -cert $CERT_FULLCHAIN_FILE \
  -key $TLS_PRIVATE_KEY \
  -host $MY_DNS_HOSTNAME \
  -notify_name $MY_ALIAS \
  -notify_link $LINK_TO_MY_CONTACT_INFO

There are other flags but their defaults will suffice.

Status

In "alpha" development.

Ready:

Common Tests have been ported. Some became split into S2S/C2S test variants.
Added option for Webfinger to be supported in a test run.
Some S2S tests.

Left to do:

Continue implementing S2S tests
Implement all C2S tests
Add option for verifying inbound HTTP Signatures
Add option for using outbound HTTP Signatures

Design

When a new test is started, a temporary TestRunner is set up. It is isolated from all other TestRunners, with its own in-memory database, and is short-lived for about fifteen minutes. It also stands up temporary fake Actors, so a test run is itself a fully-fledged federating S2S ActivityPub application.

The tests are repeatedly iterated through to self-apply automatically, or to await further input from the end-user to run more automated tests, or to await triggers from the end-user's federated software.

Future Improvements

This testsuite could also host tests for ActivityPub clients in the future, the "C" side of C2S since go-fed supports the "S" side of both C2S and S2S. These tests were not included in the original test suite.
