1Monkeysphere test infrastructure
2================================
3
4These are scripts to test various aspects of the Monkeysphere system.

6Some notes about getting started working on the monkeysphere test
7infrastructure:
8
9- the tests can and should be run as a non-privileged user.  since the
10  tests do potentially destructive things (like wiping out and
11  recreating gpg keyrings) they should definitely *not* be run as
12  root.  it may even be advisable to run them as a different,
13  dedicated user, so that any goofs you make while updating the test
14  infrastructure don't compromise your main account.
15
16- you do not need the monkeysphere package installed locally, though
17  you will need the monkeysphere dependencies installed locally.
18
19- the idea with this script is to do the following:
20
21  - set up test server infrastructure
22  - test the server setup
23  - set up test user
24  - test an ssh connection between test user and test server
25  - modify server/user setup and rerun ssh_test to make sure it
26    suceeds/fails as expected
27
28- there are various FIXMEs in the script that outline some of the
29  further testing that should be undertaken.

31- good documentation in the code in the form of comments are needed.
