Daniel and I discussed trying a Python version of the test server, since the standard library there should give us more goodies to work with. A proof of concept is in 0009. I think the big question I have for it is, how would we communicate what we want the server to do for the test? (We could perhaps switch on magic values of the client ID?) In the end I'd like to be testing close to 100% of the failure modes, and that's likely to mean a lot of back-and-forth if the server implementation isn't in the Perl process.
Can you give some more details about what this python gadget would buy us? I note that there are a couple of CPAN modules that provide OAuth2 servers, not sure if they would be of any use.
