- The test suite's file format is very simple and extensible, closely
-resembling XML. All data for a single test case resides in a single
-ASCII file. Labels mark the beginning and the end of all sections, and each
-label must be written in its own line. Comments are either XML-style
-(enclosed with <!-- and -->) or C-style (beginning with #) and must appear
-on their own lines and not alongside actual test data. Most test data files
-are syntactically valid XML, although a few files are not (lack of
-support for character entities and the preservation of CR/LF characters at
-the end of lines are the biggest differences).
-
- The file begins with a 'testcase' tag, which encompasses the remainder of
-the file.
-
-<testcase>
-
- Each file is split up in three main sections: reply, client and verify. The
-reply section is used for the server to know what to send as a reply for the
-requests curl sends, the client section defines how the client should behave
-while the verify section defines how to verify that the data stored after a
-command has been run ended up correctly.
-
- Each main section has a number of available subsections that can be
-specified, that will be checked/used if specified. This document includes all
-the subsections currently supported.
-
-Main sections are 'info', 'reply', 'client' and 'verify'.
-
-<info>
-<keywords>
-A newline-separated list of keywords describing what this test case uses and
-tests. Try to use an already used keyword. These keywords will be used for
-statistical/informational purposes and for choosing or skipping classes
-of tests. "Keywords" must begin with an alphabetic character, "-", "["
-or "{" and may actually consist of multiple words separated by spaces
-which are treated together as a single identifier.
-</keywords>
-</info>
-
-<reply>
-<data [nocheck="yes"] [sendzero="yes"] [base64="yes"] [hex="yes"]>
-data to be sent to the client on its request and later verified that it arrived
-safely. Set nocheck="yes" to prevent the test script from verifying the arrival
-of this data.
-
-If the data contains 'swsclose' anywhere within the start and end tag, and
-this is a HTTP test, then the connection will be closed by the server after
-this response is sent. If not, the connection will be kept persistent.
-
-If the data contains 'swsbounce' anywhere within the start and end tag, the
-HTTP server will detect if this is a second request using the same test and
-part number and will then increase the part number with one. This is useful
-for auth tests and similar.
-
-'sendzero' set to yes means that the (FTP) server will "send" the data even if
-the size is zero bytes. Used to verify curl's behaviour on zero bytes
-transfers.
-
-'base64' set to yes means that the data provided in the test-file is a chunk
-of data encoded with base64. It is the only way a test case can contain binary
-data. (This attribute can in fact be used on any section, but it doesn't make
-much sense for other sections than "data").
-
-'hex' set to yes means that the data is a sequence of hex pairs. It will get
-decoded and used as "raw" data.
-
-For FTP file listings, the <data> section will be used *only* if you make sure
-that there has been a CWD done first to a directory named 'test-[num]' where
-[num] is the test case number. Otherwise the ftp server can't know from which
-test file to load the list content.
-
-</data>
-<dataNUM>
-Send back this contents instead of the <data> one. The num is set by:
-A) The test number in the request line is >10000 and this is the remainder
-of [test case number]%10000.
-B) The request was HTTP and included digest details, which adds 1000 to NUM
-C) If a HTTP request is NTLM type-1, it adds 1001 to num
-D) If a HTTP request is NTLM type-3, it adds 1002 to num
-E) If a HTTP request is Basic and num is already >=1000, it adds 1 to num
-F) If a HTTP request is Negotiate, num gets incremented by one for each
-request with Negotiate authorization header on the same test case.
-
-Dynamically changing num in this way allows the test harness to be used to
-test authentication negotiation where several different requests must be sent
-to complete a transfer. The response to each request is found in its own data
-section. Validating the entire negotiation sequence can be done by
-specifying a datacheck section.
-</dataNUM>
-<connect>
-The connect section is used instead of the 'data' for all CONNECT
-requests. The remainder of the rules for the data section then apply but with
-a connect prefix.
-</connect>
-<datacheck [mode="text"] [nonewline="yes"]>
-if the data is sent but this is what should be checked afterwards. If
-'nonewline' is set, we will cut off the trailing newline of this given data
-before comparing with the one actually received by the client.
-
-Use the mode="text" attribute if the output is in text mode on platforms that
-have a text/binary difference.
-</datacheck>
-<datacheckNUM [nonewline="yes"] [mode="text"]>
-The contents of numbered datacheck sections are appended to the non-numbered
-one.
-</datacheckNUM>
-<size>
-number to return on a ftp SIZE command (set to -1 to make this command fail)
-</size>
-<mdtm>
-what to send back if the client sends a (FTP) MDTM command, set to -1 to
-have it return that the file doesn't exist
-</mdtm>
-<postcmd>
-special purpose server-command to control its behavior *after* the
-reply is sent
-For HTTP/HTTPS, these are supported:
-
-wait [secs]
- - Pause for the given time
-</postcmd>
-<servercmd>
-Special-commands for the server.
-For FTP/SMTP/POP/IMAP, these are supported:
-
-REPLY [command] [return value] [response string]
- - Changes how the server responds to the [command]. [response string] is
- evaluated as a perl string, so it can contain embedded \r\n, for example.
- There's a special [command] named "welcome" (without quotes) which is the
- string sent immediately on connect as a welcome.
-REPLYLF (like above but sends the response terminated with LF-only and not
- CRLF)
-COUNT [command] [num]
- - Do the REPLY change for [command] only [num] times and then go back to the
- built-in approach
-DELAY [command] [secs]
- - Delay responding to this command for the given time
-RETRWEIRDO
- - Enable the "weirdo" RETR case when multiple response lines appear at once
- when a file is transferred
-RETRNOSIZE
- - Make sure the RETR response doesn't contain the size of the file
-NOSAVE
- - Don't actually save what is received
-SLOWDOWN
- - Send FTP responses with 0.01 sec delay between each byte
-PASVBADIP
- - makes PASV send back an illegal IP in its 227 response
-CAPA [capabilities]
- - Enables support for and specifies a list of space separated capabilities to
- return to the client for the IMAP CAPABILITY, POP3 CAPA and SMTP EHLO
- commands
-AUTH [mechanisms]
- - Enables support for SASL authentication and specifies a list of space
- separated mechanisms for IMAP, POP3 and SMTP
-
-For HTTP/HTTPS:
-auth_required if this is set and a POST/PUT is made without auth, the
- server will NOT wait for the full request body to get sent
-idle do nothing after receiving the request, just "sit idle"
-stream continuously send data to the client, never-ending
-writedelay: [secs] delay this amount between reply packets
-skip: [num] instructs the server to ignore reading this many bytes from a
- PUT or POST request
-rtp: part [num] channel [num] size [num]
- stream a fake RTP packet for the given part on a chosen channel
- with the given payload size
-connection-monitor When used, this will log [DISCONNECT] to the server.input
- log when the connection is disconnected.
-upgrade when an HTTP upgrade header is found, the server will upgrade
- to http2
-swsclose instruct server to close connection after response
-no-expect don't read the request body if Expect: is present
-
-For TFTP:
-writedelay: [secs] delay this amount between reply packets (each packet being
- 512 bytes payload)

-
-<features>
-A list of features that MUST be present in the client/library for this test to
-be able to run. If a required feature is not present then the test will be
-SKIPPED.
-
-Alternatively a feature can be prefixed with an exclamation mark to indicate a
-feature is NOT required. If the feature is present then the test will be
-SKIPPED.
-
-Features testable here are:
-
-alt-svc
-crypto
-debug
-getrlimit
-GnuTLS
-GSS-API
-http/2
-idn
-ipv6
-Kerberos

-SSLpinning
-SSPI
-threaded-resolver
-TLS-SRP
-TrackMemory
-unittest
-unix-sockets
-win32
-WinSSL
-
-as well as each protocol that curl supports. A protocol only needs to be
-specified if it is different from the server (useful when the server
-is 'none').
-</features>
-
-<killserver>
-Using the same syntax as in <server> but when mentioned here these servers
-are explicitly KILLED when this test case is completed. Only use this if there
-is no other alternatives. Using this of course requires subsequent tests to
-restart servers.
-</killserver>
-
-<precheck>
-A command line that if set gets run by the test script before the test. If an
-output is displayed by the command or if the return code is non-zero, the test
-will be skipped and the (single-line) output will be displayed as reason for
-not running the test. Variables are substituted as in the <command> section.
-</precheck>
-
-<postcheck>
-A command line that if set gets run by the test script after the test. If
-the command exists with a non-zero status code, the test will be considered
-to have failed. Variables are substituted as in the <command> section.
-</postcheck>
-
-<tool>
-Name of tool to use instead of "curl". This tool must be built and exist
-either in the libtest/ directory (if the tool starts with 'lib') or in the
-unit/ directory (if the tool starts with 'unit').
-</tool>
-
-<name>
-test case description
-</name>
-
-<setenv>
-variable1=contents1
-variable2=contents2
-
-Set the given environment variables to the specified value before the actual
-command is run. They are cleared again after the command has been run.
-Variables are first substituted as in the <command> section.
-</setenv>
-
-<command [option="no-output/no-include/force-output/binary-trace"]
- [timeout="secs"][delay="secs"][type="perl"]>
-command line to run, there's a bunch of %variables that get replaced
-accordingly.
-
-Note that the URL that gets passed to the server actually controls what data
-that is returned. The last slash in the URL must be followed by a number. That
-number (N) will be used by the test-server to load test case N and return the
-data that is defined within the <reply><data></data></reply> section.
-
-If there's no test number found above, the HTTP test server will use the
-number following the last dot in the given hostname (made so that a CONNECT
-can still pass on test number) so that "foo.bar.123" gets treated as test case
-123. Alternatively, if an IPv6 address is provided to CONNECT, the last
-hexadecimal group in the address will be used as the test number! For example
-the address "[1234::ff]" would be treated as test case 255.
-
-Set type="perl" to write the test case as a perl script. It implies that
-there's no memory debugging and valgrind gets shut off for this test.
-
-Set option="no-output" to prevent the test script to slap on the --output
-argument that directs the output to a file. The --output is also not added if
-the verify/stdout section is used.
-
-Set option="force-output" to make use of --output even when the test is
-otherwise written to verify stdout.
-
-Set option="no-include" to prevent the test script to slap on the --include
-argument.
-
-Set option="binary-trace" to use --trace instead of --trace-ascii for tracing.
-Suitable for binary-oriented protocols such as MQTT.
-
-Set timeout="secs" to override default server logs advisor read lock timeout.
-This timeout is used by the test harness, once that the command has completed
-execution, to wait for the test server to write out server side log files and
-remove the lock that advised not to read them. The "secs" parameter is the not
-negative integer number of seconds for the timeout. This 'timeout' attribute
-is documented for completeness sake, but is deep test harness stuff and only
-needed for very singular and specific test cases. Avoid using it.
-
-Set delay="secs" to introduce a time delay once that the command has completed
-execution and before the <postcheck> section runs. The "secs" parameter is the
-not negative integer number of seconds for the delay. This 'delay' attribute
-is intended for very specific test cases, and normally not needed.
