Verify the latest version of https://github.com/svanoort/pyresttest, see if any need feature was removed and make the required changes if it would be better to migrate to the newest version. It would be also nice to establish a roadmap and a version control (stable/beta/alpha)

@svanoort fyi maybe a place to talk about the challenges / recommendations for reconciling with upstream work you have done lately

svanoort commented 9 years ago

I think there are three parts to this one

  1. Pulling in the wait / SSL options -- should be clean/easy to layer on top of the upstream, and a good fit for that. Only challenge would be how to test the SSL is configured right, but not too bad.
  2. Load test -- as I alluded to in email, this one's more of a challenge. There's future plans to build something that does this and more in the upstream, but it would be some time next year. However nothing in the upstream so far blocks load test work either.
  3. Tests -- I've volunteered to do this part, but it depends on the load test & SSL updates. I'm getting the impression you guys may not have cycles to pull in the upstream and render changes compatible, so I'll be looking to that happening first before working on updating tests.

Also, to be aware, in near future I am looking to get the upstream to a tidy/documented state and start pulling in contributors to build on it (there are signs of interest) while I take a less active role for a while to focus more on front end techs -- I had hoped to assist with tests before that, but that's somewhat up to your priorities.
