NAME¶
Net::LDAP::Server::Test - test Net::LDAP code
SYNOPSIS¶
use Test::More tests => 10;
use Net::LDAP::Server::Test;
ok( my $server = Net::LDAP::Server::Test->new(8080),
"test LDAP server spawned");
# connect to port 8080 with your Net::LDAP code.
ok(my $ldap = Net::LDAP->new( 'localhost', port => 8080 ),
"new LDAP connection" );
# ... test stuff with $ldap ...
# server will exit when you call final LDAP unbind().
ok($ldap->unbind(), "LDAP server unbound");
DESCRIPTION¶
Now you can test your Net::LDAP code without having a real LDAP server
available.
METHODS¶
Only one user-level method is implemented:
new().
new( port, key_value_args )¶
Create a new server. Basically this just
fork()s a child process listing
on
port and handling requests using Net::LDAP::Server.
port defaults to 10636.
port may be an IO::Socket object listening to a local port.
key_value_args may be:
- data
- data is optional data to return from the Net::LDAP search()
function. Typically it would be an array ref of Net::LDAP::Entry
objects.
- auto_schema
- A true value means the add(), modify() and delete()
methods will store internal in-memory data based on DN values, so that
search() will mimic working on a real LDAP schema.
- active_directory
- Work in Active Directory mode. This means that entries are automatically
assigned a objectSID, and some effort is made to mimic the member/memberOf
linking between AD Users and Groups.
new() will
croak() if there was a problem
fork()ing a new
server.
Returns a Net::LDAP::Server::Test object, which is just a blessed reference to
the PID of the forked server.
stop¶
Calls
waitpid() on the server's associated child process. You may find it
helpful to call this method explicitly, especially if you are creating
multiple servers in the same test. Otherwise, this method is typically not
needed and may even cause your tests to hang indefinitely if they die
prematurely. YMMV.
To prevent
waitpid() from blocking and hanging your test server, it is
wrapped in an
alarm() call, which will wait 2 seconds and then call
kill() on the reluctant pid. You have been warned.
port_is_open¶
Returns an IO::Socket (or subclass) for the current server port. If the port is
already in use, this is a false value.
