Fix udpPayloadSize encoding #51

Closed MartinKolarik closed 5 years ago

MartinKolarik commented 5 years ago

Fixed a typo in the code which caused udpPayloadSize option to be ignored. Tests didn't catch this because the tested value 4096 is also used as a default, so I updated the tests as well to use a non-default value.

The fact that this wasn’t noticed before is a really bad sign for javascript development. Would Typescript have caught this? I don’t know enough to know the answer but clearly this is a bigger problem than a simple typo.

Would Typescript have caught this?

It might but it would depend on how good the definitions were. Better tests would catch this as well. There was only one test and that was using the default option value, making it useless.

But that suggests that anything less than 100% test coverage is insufficient.
