[jira] [Created] (AIRFLOW-4250) Add Test/Check button for Connections in Webserver

Ash Berlin-Taylor created AIRFLOW-4250:
------------------------------------------

             Summary: Add Test/Check button for Connections in Webserver
                 Key: AIRFLOW-4250
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-4250
             Project: Apache Airflow
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Ash Berlin-Taylor


When creating Connections in Airflow it would be nice to be able to check that the connection is working before having to run an operator.

To be able to do this the Hook would need to be extended to support {{check}} function. What that does would depend on the hook, but could be things like "SELECT 1", ssh in and run {{true}}, make a call to sts get-caller-identity API etc.

The webserver would run these checks, and should be able to provide diagnostic info back for display.
