Apache Thrift - integration test suite

This is the cross everything integration test suite for Apache Thrift. executed by

make cross

at the moment, this starts the test.sh script which does the real cross test with different transports, protocols and languages.

Unit tests for languages ar usually located under lib//test/ cross language tests acording to ThriftTest.thrift shall be provided for every language including executables with the following command line interface for servers:

$ ./cpp/TestServer -h
Allowed options:
  -h [ --help ]               produce help message
  --port arg (=9090)          Port number to listen
  --domain-socket arg         Unix Domain Socket (e.g. /tmp/ThriftTest.thrift)
  --named-pipe arg            Windows Named Pipe (e.g. MyThriftPipe)
  --server-type arg (=simple) type of server, "simple", "thread-pool", 
                              "threaded", or "nonblocking"
  --transport arg (=buffered) transport: buffered, framed, http, anonpipe
  --protocol arg (=binary)    protocol: binary, compact, json
  --ssl                       Encrypted Transport using SSL
  --processor-events          processor-events
  -n [ --workers ] arg (=4)   Number of thread pools workers. Only valid for 
                          thread-pool server type

and this for clients:

$ ./cpp/TestClient -h
Allowed options:
  -h [ --help ]               produce help message
  --host arg (=localhost)     Host to connect
  --port arg (=9090)          Port number to connect
  --domain-socket arg         Domain Socket (e.g. /tmp/ThriftTest.thrift), 
                              instead of host and port
  --named-pipe arg            Windows Named Pipe (e.g. MyThriftPipe)
  --anon-pipes hRead hWrite   Windows Anonymous Pipes pair (handles)
  --transport arg (=buffered) Transport: buffered, framed, http, evhttp
  --protocol arg (=binary)    Protocol: binary, compact, json
  --ssl                       Encrypted Transport using SSL
  -n [ --testloops ] arg (=1) Number of Tests
  -t [ --threads ] arg (=1)   Number of Test threads 

If you have executed the make check or make cross then you will be able to browse gen-html/ThriftTest.html with the test documentation.

The return code (exit code) shall be 0 on success, or an integer in the range 1 - 255 on errors. In order to signal failed tests, the return code shall be composed from these bits to indicate failing tests:

  #define TEST_BASETYPES     1  // 0000 0001
  #define TEST_STRUCTS       2  // 0000 0010
  #define TEST_CONTAINERS    4  // 0000 0100
  #define TEST_EXCEPTIONS    8  // 0000 1000
  #define TEST_NOTUSED     240  // 1111 0000 (reserved bits)

Tests that have not been executed at all count as errors.

Example:

During tests, the test client notices that some of the Struct tests fail. Furthermore, due to some other problem none of the Exception tests is executed. Therefore, the test client returns the code 10 = 2 | 8, indicating the failure of both test 2 (TEST_STRUCTS) and test 8 (TEST_EXCEPTIONS).
