Tests

SSSD is a complex piece of software with a long development history. Therefore, several layers of tests have been created with different goals and using various frameworks. We are currently in the process of reworking our integration and multihost tests into system tests. Unit and system tests are actively maintained and used.

Test Types

Historically, we have had four different test types on other frameworks. The integration and multi-host test cases are being rewritten as system tests using the SSSD Test Framework.
