Activitypub Testsuite
[@activitypubtestsuite](https://venera.social/profile/activitypubtestsuite) Hi! I'm hoping we can get a suite that runs locally. I'm bad at installing software, so can help with the barrier-to-entry. I've thought about test suite design, but that's mostly just identifying problems I don't know how to solve (e.g. how to test S2S when servers are more than just relays). I can help with docs and testing. I'm playing with making a pedantic-to-the-point-of-uselessness literal implementation of the spec in Python, which might help if it goes anywhere.
This is an important [#FediVerse](https://indieweb.social/tags/FediVerse) project: [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1l46VNMY\_ULZmf0lGPKJ86a\_umHqGv--WA0fynVjQaRQ/edit](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1l46VNMY_ULZmf0lGPKJ86a_umHqGv--WA0fynVjQaRQ/edit) [@activitypubtestsuite](https://venera.social/profile/activitypubtestsuite) Test suites of this kind can be a very powerful tool for [#OSS](https://indieweb.social/tags/OSS) projects that interact with the private sector, and for preventing hegemony by any one group. As an example, this is used to with the the JVM and Java specs. I encourage people to get involved!
[@activitypubtestsuite](https://venera.social/profile/activitypubtestsuite) Hey all! Just a quick intro to the group: I've had an interest in the indieweb for a while now, and the fediverse more recently, and when I heard about this project I figured I might be able to chip in, especially as I'll have a lot of free cycles soon. In terms of skillset, I'm an experienced coder (lots of Ruby lately but I'm a polyglot), I've read and implemented a few specs (though not AP), and written a couple as well. So if I can be of any help, let me know!
[@tchambers](https://indieweb.social/@tchambers) [@activitypubtestsuite](https://venera.social/profile/activitypubtestsuite) We simply cannot ignore it...there it was inviting us to ignore it...but here I am not doing as I'm told (again). Hahahah
