Test mailets

[Dave Morris <da...@codon.demon.co.uk>]

Hi,

I've been working on some code to create some internal test tools for
James.
The idea is to add a set of test mailets inside James.
You send a trigger email from outside to james-test@my.james.server
This triggers each of the test mailets to send a set of test emails to
themselves and check results.
The trigger mailet then sends a set of replies back to the initiator
with the test results.

Has anyone else looked at this ?

Thanks,
Dave

I don't know anybody who's working on something like this, but I think 
it could be very useful.  There's a general need for some unit testing 
of various components of James (off the top of my head, mail 
repositories, mail address parsing, and maybe end-to-end SMTP delivery 
and POP3 retrieval).  Mailet testing is particularly hard to do, so if 
you can figure out an automated way to help do that, that's be great.
