[sr-dev] Info: Kamailio Unit Testing Framework using Docker

Hello, a while ago, I started to put together a unit testing framework for Kamailio. It was more or less inspired from the old shell-based testing framework added by Henning Westerholt many years ago (which still resides in source tree path test/unit/), but now leveraging docker to have an isolated environment for running the tests. The new testing framework is available on github at:   * https://github.com/kamailio/kamailio-tests Giacomo Vacca helped a bit so far, he is actually going to present more about it at Kamailio World 2018 (https://www.kamailioworld.com/k06/schedule/). But we want now to get more feedback from community, eventually to adjust the framework to become something easy to use and even more important, to be easy to contribute to. One of the main benefits from my point of view it would be to have the reports of the issues that can be reproduced submitted along with a unit test. It would make it easier to troubleshoot and then after fixing it, would be tested always before releases in order to avoid regressions. Right now, a good help from community would represent converting the old unit tests to the new framework, afterwards we can decommission test/unit. The conversion should be rather easy, as we still rely on shell and the sip tools like sipp/sipsak ... If you want to help here by you need clarifications or get stuck somewhere, just write to mailing list and I would be more than happy to assist. Such contributions should be submitted as pull requests in order to be easy to review:   * https://github.com/kamailio/kamailio-tests/pulls Looking forward to your feedback, comments or contributions!
