Test Suite

Running tests

The libreswan tests, in testing/pluto, can be run using several different mechanisms:

Test Frameworks

Framework	Speed	Host	Guest	Modifies /	Notes
Namespaces	fast	linux	linux	yes	results are host dependent (for instance the host's kernel version) requires all dependencies, including libreswan, to be installed on /
KVM	slower	generic?	Fedora, OpenBSD	no	in theory it can be run on any system supporting libvirt/KVM (but only Linux has ever been used)
Docker		linux			Linux centric using host kernel. Ideal for build tests. Can build using various Linux Distributions : CentOS 6, 7, 8, Fedora 28 - rawhide, Debian, Ubuntu. Also for run tests using systemd.
