Great! Unit testing is good, even though it's boring and not very glamorous. I wonder if you have seen or considered libtap, possibly as an optional dependency for those who care about running the tests? http://jc.ngo.org.uk/trac-bin/trac.cgi/wiki/LibTap It looks like it could almost drop in, in place of some of your existing test helpers. It is also compatible with a variety of end user test tools. However, I could see hesitation in adding external dependencies where they aren't really necessary. If you had TAP compatibility through libtap or other means, I could easily drop dovecot into our existing suite of nightly smoke tests on FreeBSD. > I'm probably going to be pretty lazy at adding more of those tests, so > if you've ever wanted to get your own code to Dovecot, now would be a > great time to do it! :) With a 5 month old and a 4 year old on hand, "copious free time" isn't my strong point, but I'll at least attempt to provide tests with any future bug reports.
