- Use the new createRpcSigsFromNim for client json-rpc API - Avoid importing any nimbus/rpc specifics, use only web3 and fluffy local rpc code - Adjust tools making use of the client side API |

uTP testing infrastructure
Testing infrastructure which enables to test uTP implementation over different network conditions on a local machine.
Uses following tools developed to test the QUIC protocol:
Prerequisities
-
Machine with Docker installed
-
nimbus-eth1 set-up to run
make utp_test
How it works
Test setup uses Docker Compose to start 3 Docker containers:
- uTP client - which is an instance of the
utp_test_app - uTP server - which is an instance of the
utp_test_app - sim - which is an instance of the ns3 network simulator with several pre-compiled scenarios
The networking is set up in such way that network traffic is routed from client to server and server to client through the simulator. The simulator decides what to do with packets passing through based on the selected scneario.
Explanation from quic-network-simulator:
The framework uses two networks on the host machine: `leftnet` (IPv4
193.167.0.0/24, IPv6 fd00:cafe:cafe:0::/64) and `rightnet` (IPv4
193.167.100.0/24, IPv6 fd00:cafe:cafe:100::/64). `leftnet` is connected to the
client docker image, and `rightnet` is connected to the server. The ns-3
simulation sits in the middle and forwards packets between `leftnet` and
`rightnet`
Practicalities
For now the process is semi-manual (TODO automate this as much as possible)
To run integration testing scenarios with different network conditions:
1. cd nimbus-eth1/
2. docker build -t test-utp --build-arg BRANCH_NAME={branch-name} fluffy/tools/utp_testing/docker
3. SCENARIO="scenario_details" docker-compose -f fluffy/tools/utp_testing/docker/docker-compose.yml up
For example:
SCENARIO="drop-rate --delay=15ms --bandwidth=10Mbps --queue=25 --rate_to_client=0 --rate_to_server=0" docker-compose -f fluffy/tools/utp_testing/docker/docker-compose.yml up
would start `drop-rate` scenario with specified delay, bandwith, and different drop rates
4. make utp-test
All scenarios are specified in: scenarios
