lwthiker d417eb5c5c Rotate URLs in tests script and increase timeout
The tests fail sometimes with timeout for fetching the wikipedia URL.
Try to reduce the chance it happens by increasing the timeout and
rotating URLs.

The tests verify that curl-impersonate has the same network signature as that of the supported browsers. They do not test curl's functionality itself.

Running the tests

The tests assume that you've built both curl-impersonate-chrome and curl-impersonate-ff docker images before (see Building from source).

To run the tests, build with:

docker build -t curl-impersonate-tests tests/

then run with:

docker run --rm curl-impersonate-tests

This simply runs pytest in the container. You can pass additional flags to pytest such as --log-cli-level DEBUG.

How the tests work

For each supported browser, the following tests are performed:

  • A packet capture is started while curl-impersonate is run with the relevant wrapper script. The Client Hello message is extracted from the capture and compared against the known signature of the browser.
  • curl-impersonate is run, connecting to a local nghttpd server (a simple HTTP/2 server). The HTTP/2 pseudo-headers and headers are extracted from the output log of nghttpd and compared to the known headers of the browser.

What's missing

The following tests are still missing:

  • Test that curl-impersonate sends the same HTTP/2 SETTINGS as the browser.
