Change Details

We have created a test suite for pfctl and integrated it under FreeBSD's src/tests using kyua/ATF. The tests reside under src/tests/sbin/pfctl. We have copied the most important test cases from OpenBSD's corresponding src/regress/sbin/pfctl, those that run pfctl on a test input file and check correctness of its output. We have also added some new tests using the same format. The tests consist of a collection of input files (pf*.in) and corresponding output files (pf*.ok). We run pfctl -nv on the input files and check that the output matches the output files. If any discrepancy is discovered during future development in the source tree, we know that a regression bug has been introduced into the tree. This form of testing makes it easy to add new tests. The way to do it is to create a pf*.in and matching pf*.ok file, add them to src/tests/sbin/pfctl, and update the run file to include the new files. The tests are put together using FreeBSD's recommended test suite which uses kyua. The tests are hierarchically organized under src/tests using a structure of files named Kyuafile. That means that running 'kyua test' under src/tests will find our tests and run them as part of the complete test suite.
