For example, +the "channel_closing" test involves channel_closing_driver.rb +and channel_closing_client.rb. + +Typically, the "driver" will start up a simple "echo" server, and then +spawn a client. It gives the client the address of the "echo" server as +well as an address to listen on for control rpcs. Depending on the test, the +client usually starts up a "ClientControl" grpc server for the driver to +interact with (the driver can tell the client process to do strange things at +different times, depending on the test). + +So far these tests are mostly useful for testing process-shutdown related +situations, since the client's run in separate processes. + +These tests are invoked through the "tools/run_tests/run_tests.py" script (the +Rakefile doesn't start these). |
