Joachim Wiberg ee6d4a1dae service: keep a pending reload across a second conf reload
A service whose condition goes into flux during a reload is paused
with its reload still pending.  If another reload was requested in
the meantime, re-parsing its unchanged .conf file cleared the pending
mark, so the service was resumed without ever being reloaded.  Seen
with sshd <pid/syslogd> on Infix, where a configuration change that
touched both landed as two reloads in a row and sshd kept its old
listen addresses.

The mark is only ever cleared once the change has been applied, so a
mark that is still set when the file is parsed again means exactly
that: not applied yet.  Leave it alone.

Finit Test Suite

Finit comes with a set of tests and a small framework for running them. Contributors are encouraged to write new tests when implementing features, or fixing bugs.

Each test is run in isolation, in it's own namespace. Finit will therefore be able to be launched as PID 1. Since it's also running with it's own root directory it will be able to function properly without having any super user privileges in the host environment.

Running tests

To run the test suite, first build Finit, e.g:

./configure --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix= --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --enable-testserv-plugin
make -j9 clean all

Then run (parallel does not work atm):

make check

make check will set up the required assets for the test environment, and then run the full set of tests. The environment is not removed afterwards so at this point individual tests can be executed without having to run the entire test suite, which is handy when developing new tests or debugging existing test. To execute an individual test, simply invoke the script containing it:

./test/name-of-the-test.sh

Another way to run a single (or more) test(s) is to define the TESTS environment variable:

TESTS="start-kill-service" make check
