PubSubHubbub Hub Test Suite --------------------------- This suite is intended to be used for hub compliancy. The test examples came directly from the current 0.1 PubSubHubbub Core working draft. However, not everything can be tested currently. This may change as the spec changes. This requires Ruby, RSpec and Mechanize, the later two can be installed with Ruby Gems using "gem install rspec mechanize". RSpec is a great approach to testing and Ruby allows for nice DSL-like testing. The interface is HTTP, so it's language independent. When you use this test suite, make sure that the HOST and SUB_PORT are within reach of the HUB_URL. If you chose a "public" HUB_URL, your HOST and SUB_PORT must be "public" too. You can also specify a specific topic url to test a given hub as not all hubs accept all feed urls. Using the Test Suite: $ HUB_URL=<url to hub> [HOST=<subscriber host>] [SUB_PORT=<subscriber port>] [PUB_PORT=<publisher port>] [TOPIC_URL=<feed url>] spec -c hub_*_spec.rb --format specdoc Example: $ HUB_URL=http://localhost:8000 HOST=localhost SUB_PORT=8098 spec -c hub_*_spec.rb --format specdoc
