Add wait_until_connected to the shared convergence helpers: it polls a suite's own pairwise pings (the signal it actually asserts on), returns as soon as every pair is reachable, extends its deadline while the reachable-pair count is still climbing, and gives up only when progress stalls. Use it in the rekey, static-mesh, and sidecar suites in place of the fixed wall-clock baseline timeout and the blind sleep, which timed out under concurrent CI load while the mesh was still converging.
FIPS Testing
Integration and simulation test harnesses for FIPS, using Docker containers running the full protocol stack.
Test Harnesses
static/ -- Static Docker Network
Fixed topologies with manual scripts for building, config generation, connectivity tests (ping, iperf), and network impairment (netem). Useful for deterministic debugging and validating specific topology configurations.
| Topology | Nodes | Transport | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| mesh | 5 | UDP | Sparse mesh, 6 links, multi-hop |
| chain | 5 | UDP | Linear chain, max 4-hop paths |
| mesh-public | 5+1 | UDP | Mesh with external public node |
| tcp-chain | 3 | TCP | Linear chain over TCP (port 8443) |
| rekey | 5 | UDP | Rekey integration test topology |
tor/ -- Tor Transport Integration
End-to-end Tor transport testing with Docker containers running real Tor daemons. Requires internet access for Tor bootstrapping.
| Scenario | Description |
|---|---|
| socks5-outbound | Outbound SOCKS5 connections through Tor to clearnet peer |
| directory-mode | Inbound via HiddenServiceDir onion service (co-located) |
nat/ -- NAT Traversal Lab
Real Docker NAT traversal tests for the Nostr/STUN bootstrap path,
using router containers with iptables-based NAT, a local Nostr relay,
and a local STUN responder.
| Scenario | Description |
|---|---|
| cone | Two NATed peers establish a UDP traversal path |
| symmetric | UDP traversal fails under symmetric NAT, TCP fallback wins |
| lan | Peers on the same LAN prefer local addresses over reflexive |
chaos/ -- Stochastic Simulation
Automated network testing with configurable node counts, topology algorithms (random geometric, Erdos-Renyi, chain, explicit), and fault injection (netem mutation, link flaps, traffic generation, node churn). 20 scenarios covering general stress testing, cost-based parent selection, mixed link technologies (fiber/Bluetooth/WiFi), transport-specific validation (UDP, TCP, Ethernet), and ECN/congestion testing. Scenarios are defined in YAML and executed via a Python harness that manages the full lifecycle: topology generation, Docker orchestration, fault scheduling, log collection, and analysis.
