2016-01-18Removed queue-examples.Steve Kemp
These are no longer required now we're sure we understand the process of adding jobs to the queue without duplication.
2016-01-18Updated the queue-handling.Steve Kemp
We now use a zset to store our pending tests. This means that jobs are only in the queue once - no duplicates are allowed. This closes #12428.
2016-01-11Allow expected-test to be double-quoted.Steve Kemp
This changes the parser from only allowing this: http://example.com/ must run http with content 'reserved'. To allowing both of these: http://example.com/ must run http with content "reservered". http://example.com/ must run http with content 'reserved'.
2015-12-21Added a threaded PoC for a "zpop" implementation.Patrick J Cherry
This follows the instructions from http://redis.io/topics/transactions#using-a-hrefcommandswatchwatcha-to-implement-zpop
2015-12-21updated the add routine to ensure we update the set in order.Patrick J Cherry
2015-12-20Fixing test suite as per lodge postJames Lawrie
2015-12-18Modified zset test program to exit if it encounters a test it has already seen.Patrick J Cherry
This helps with debugging. We expect it to exit eventually, but only after it has seen all tests.
2015-12-18Added queue-demonstration programs.Steve Kemp
2015-12-18Document queueSteve Kemp
2015-12-18Updated to use the right form of counting for the set.Steve Kemp
2015-12-18Fixed the name of the string.Steve Kemp
2015-12-18New release.Steve Kemp
2015-12-18Updated to revert to a set with no ordering.Steve Kemp
This is more reliable, albeit potentially racy and with the failure case that a job might be readded twice.
2015-12-18Return values using a reverse-score-range.Steve Kemp
This prevents starvation, by ensuring that we pull tests out in a FIFO fashion - by virtue of the timestamp.
2015-12-18We only have one queue-type now.Steve Kemp
Remove the configuration-variable that used to allow switching at run-time.
2015-12-18Removed references and support for beanstalkd.Steve Kemp
The beanstalkd queue used to be used in the past, and we later added support for Redis via a simple abstraction layer. But now we've no longer tested and used beanstalkd for over a year, and the client-libraries are no longer available as native Debian packages. With that in mind we've excised the code, although left the abstraction-class in-place.
2015-12-18Removed debugging print.Steve Kemp
2015-12-18Removed the diagnostic output of the test-scoresSteve Kemp
2015-12-18New releaseSteve Kemp
2015-12-18Drop reference beanstalkd.Steve Kemp
2015-12-18Use a sorted set for tests in our queue.Steve Kemp
This ensures that all tests always run, and we have an ordering.
2015-12-17new release.Steve Kemp
2015-12-17Treat our Redis queue as a set.Steve Kemp
This means that tests will only ever be enqueued once, regardless of how many times they are parsed. In the past we could have a configuration file that read: test1 .. test2 .. test3 .. Parsing/adding this file would result in a queue looking like so: test1 .. test2 .. test3 .. test1 .. test2 .. test3 .. test1 .. test2 .. test3 .. Now the queue will *ALWAYS* look like this: test1 .. test2 .. test3 .. In the normal course of events this won't matter, as teh processing loop will look like so: * Add new jobs every minute. * Worker runs the jobs. In the case of a failing job though the test might take 2.5 minutes and that will cause the queue to backup. (2.5 minutes because a test is repeated 5 times before a fail is announced, and the timeout is 30 seconds. These values can and should be tweaked.) With the new method even if the queue is slowly draining the queue will never grow to containu hundreds of events it will just be "topped up" not "overflowing". Thanks to James Hannah for the suggestion, and James Lawrie for the patience.
2015-12-17Remove references to beanstalkdSteve Kemp
2015-12-02New release.Steve Kemp
2015-12-02Added swordfish range - 5.28.56.0/21Steve Kemp
2015-11-30New releaseSteve Kemp
2015-11-30Don't do SHA1 signature testing by default.Steve Kemp
2015-11-16New releaseSteve Kemp
2015-11-16Keep 8k history-transitions.Steve Kemp
2015-11-16Updated the redis-alerter to store more useful-state.Steve Kemp
This will make visualization more simple.
2015-11-16Ensure we strip leading/trailing space from alerts.Steve Kemp
This allows our configuration file `/etc/custodian/custodian.cfg` to contain something like this, without errors; alerter = file , redis
2015-10-29Allow testng for weak certificate signing algorithms.Steve Kemp
This is a good thing to do, as Chrome will apaprently be refusing to show sites with SHA-1 in use over SHA-256. This closes #12358.
2015-08-26Catch "RecvErr" exceptions from curb.Steve Kemp
This prevents a slightly ugly backtrace instead of a genuinely useful report.
2015-08-25New release 0.24.12Steve Kemp
2015-08-25Force default encoding to be UTF-8.Steve Kemp
This shouldn't be required, but adding it is harmless and indicates our intent cleanly.
2015-08-25Explicitly open our configuration file in UTF-8 mode.Steve Kemp
This avoids any errors of the form: invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII
2015-08-07New release.Steve Kemp
2015-08-07Ensure that we correctly parse bogus macro-definitions.Steve Kemp
We've always had an implicit rule in macro-definitions, that they end with a period. This meant that the first line is valid: FOO is bar.vm.bytemark.co.uk. However we'd expect this to fail: FOO is bar.vm.bytemark.co.uk A similar issue would arise if a macro-definition involved more than one host, only the first would be valid. We've fixed this now, such that the trailing period is optional.
2015-08-04Added new releaseSteve Kemp
2015-08-04Override the alert-test-type for the SSL-expiry check.Steve Kemp
This allows better alerting.
2015-07-29Loosen teh grammar on tcp-tests.Steve Kemp
In the past we needed to write: must run tcp on 3306. Now we can add the "port" to match the rest of the tests: must run tcp on port 3306.
2015-07-29New release for the RDP-tester.Steve Kemp
2015-07-29Ensure that protocol-handlers are lower-case.Steve Kemp
This allows you to write the following (identical) tests: foo must run FTP. foo must run ftp. foo must run FtP. This is mostly a neatness update.
2015-07-29Test that we can parse an RDP-test.Steve Kemp
This will ensure that it uses the correct port.
2015-07-29Added handler for running RDP-tests.Steve Kemp
This just does a TCP-connection to port 3389.
2015-05-06Force an explicit OK on the restart.Steve Kemp
2015-05-06Ensure we restart the worker on upgrade.Steve Kemp
This caters to the new systems too.
2015-04-30We've now tested under more ruby versions.Steve Kemp
We've successfully deployed on ruby 1.8, 1.9, and 2.1
2015-04-30Fixed type: losely -> loosely.Steve Kemp
