Use these words and casing more consistently across text, comments and
one curl tool output:
AIX, ALPN, ANSI, BSD, Cygwin, Darwin, FreeBSD, GitHub, HP-UX, Linux,
macOS, MS-DOS, MSYS, MinGW, NTLM, POSIX, Solaris, UNIX, Unix, Unicode,
WINE, WebDAV, Win32, winbind, WinIDN, Windows, Windows CE, Winsock.
Mostly OS names and a few more.
Also a couple of other minor text fixups.
Closes#14360
Some feature names used in tests had minor differences compared to
the well-known ones from `curl -V`. This patch syncs them to make test
results easier to grok.
Closes#14183
To reduce the risk that the user running the tests has a .curlrc present
that messes things up.
Support 'option="no-q"' for the <command> tag to switch it off on demand.
Use this new feature in test 433 and 436.
Ref: #13284Closes#13387
- test450: remove --config from the keywords
- test2080: change return code
- test428: add --config as a keyword
- test428: disable on Windows due to CI problems
These are ones likely to fail on heavily-loaded machines that alter the
normal test timing. Most of these tests already had the flaky keyword
since this condition makes them more likely to fail on CI.
This allows test cases to require this feature to run and to be used in
%if conditions.
Large here means larger than 32 bits. Ie does not suffer from y2038.
Closes#11696
Add `test1279` to verify that `libcurl.def` lists all exported API
functions found in libcurl headers.
Also:
- extend test suite XML `stdout` tag with the `loadfile` attribute.
- fix `tests/extern-scan.pl` and `test1135` to include websocket API.
- use all headers (sorted) in `test1135` instead of a manual list.
- add options `--sort`, `--heading=` to `tests/extern-scan.pl`.
- add `libcurl.def` to the auto-labeler GHA task.

- they are mostly pointless in all major jurisdictions
- many big corporations and projects already don't use them
- saves us from pointless churn
- git keeps history for us
- the year range is kept in COPYING
checksrc is updated to allow non-year using copyright statements
Closes#10205
The `crlf="yes"` attribute and "hyper mode" are now only applied on a
subset of dedicated sections: data, datacheck, stdout and protocol.
Updated test 2500 accordingly.
Also made test1 use crlf="yes" for <protocol>, mostly because it is
often used as a template test case. Going forward, using this attribute
we should be able to write test cases using linefeeds only and avoid
mixed line ending encodings.

Added setting: RETRSIZE [size] in the <servercmd> section. When set this
will cause the test FTP server to return the size set (rather than the
actual size) in the acknowledgement from a RETR request.
Closes#9772
- Replace `Github` with `GitHub`.
- Replace `windows` with `Windows`
- Replace `advice` with `advise` where a verb is used.
- A few fixes on removing repeated words.
- Replace `a HTTP` with `an HTTP`

Usage:
curl -x "socks5h://localhost/run/tor/socks" "https://example.com"
Updated runtests.pl to run a socksd server listening on unix socket
Added tests test1467 test1468
Added documentation for proxy command line option and socks proxy
options
Closes#8668
This allows to use write delays for large responses without
resulting in the test taking an unreasonable amount of time.
In many cases delaying writes by a whole second or more isn't
necessary for the desired effect.
Closes#8827
Make tests require h2c feature present to run, and only set h2c if
nghttp2 is used in the build. Hyper does not support it.
Remove those tests from DISABLED
Fixes#8605Closes#8613
The 'oldlibssh' feature indicates that the error code returned by libssh
for a broken known_hosts file should be 67 rather than 60 (test1459).
This feature was added as part of #8444 with 'oldlibssh' mapping to
libssh versions prior to 0.9.6, and then refined as part of #8511 to map
to versions prior to 0.9.5.
In Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.5 there is a patched version of libssh
version 0.9.4 (https://git.centos.org/rpms/libssh/blob/c8/f/SOURCES) in
which test1459 fails because it returns the "new" value rather than the
"old" one. It's plausible that one of the patches is responsible for
this rather than the underlying code but I don't think so.
This change therefore drops the 'oldlibssh' version check to map to
libssh versions older than 0.9.4, which fixes builds on RHEL-8.
Closes#8548
Warning: this will make existing curl command lines that use metalink to
stop working.
Reasons for removal:
1. We've found several security problems and issues involving the
metalink support in curl. The issues are not detailed here. When
working on those, it become apparent to the team that several of the
problems are due to the system design, metalink library API and what
the metalink RFC says. They are very hard to fix on the curl side
only.
2. The metalink usage with curl was only very briefly documented and was
not following the "normal" curl usage pattern in several ways, making
it surprising and non-intuitive which could lead to further security
issues.
3. The metalink library was last updated 6 years ago and wasn't so
active the years before that either. An unmaintained library means
there's a security problem waiting to happen. This is probably reason
enough.
4. Metalink requires an XML parsing library, which is complex code (even
the smaller alternatives) and to this day often gets security
updates.
5. Metalink is not a widely used curl feature. In the 2020 curl user
survey, only 1.4% of the responders said that they'd are using it. In
2021 that number was 1.2%. Searching the web also show very few
traces of it being used, even with other tools.
6. The torrent format and associated technology clearly won for
downloading large files from multiple sources in parallel.
Cloes #7176
The 'hyper mode' makes line-ending checks work in the test suite for
when hyper is used. Now it also requires that HTTP or HTTPS are
mentioned as keywords to be enabled so that it doesn't wrongly adjusts
tests for other protocols.
This makes test 271 (TFTP) work again in hyper enabled builds.
Closes#7185
