[WIP] Backchannel as the set of commands sending as POST request #20

Closed Artemkaaas closed 4 years ago

Artemkaaas commented 5 years ago

I've created this PR to reflect an alternative way using Backchannel as the opposite of keeping static HTTP connection over DIDDoc. Here we can discuss the way we will choose. The related Aries RFC doesn't describe backchannels enough.

PR content: Using this backchannel with a defined set of commands we are able to run connection tests without user interaction, get the status of the agent under the testing. For VCX testing against Test Suite, we did a simple HTTP server above python wrapper which performs requested actions.

Vcx is not the Agent in the complete meaning of this term. It's library that uses an agent as an endpoint to collect messages(Mediator) and handles inbound messages by request. So, we needed an application above Vcx to run the test suite.
