Heiko Hund d7606f4cfb apply --dns options the new way
Previous to this --dns and DNS related --dhcp-options shared the same
code to apply the settings to Windows and macOS systems. So, both
options were pretty much just aliases, with --dns offering more and
finer grained settings that were mostly ignored.

Now --dhcp-options are applied the way they have always been and --dns
does it its own - the new - way. Reason for this behavioral change is
foremost that we want it to be the same between openvpn version 2 and
version 3. But there are also a few new features (e.g. DNSSEC), previously
not present with the --dhcp-options.

The name server and split-domain configuration is exclusively set via
NRPT on Windows, since it overrules any other resolver setting. If there
is no split DNS configured and all domains are resolved using the pushed
name server, we make sure that local domain names are still resolvable by
adding so called exclude NRPT rules, that make sure local domains get
resolved by their local DNS resolvers.

Since Windows does not know about alternative secure transports, the
'transport' and 'sni' settings are ignored.

For macOS the 'dnssec' setting is ignored in addition to that. Besides
that not much does change on that platform. In case of --dns options the
explicit values are used now. The API in use may be changed at a later time.

Unit test framework for OpenVPN3

The unit test framework is written in the Google Test framework.

Building/running the unit tests

Before building the unit tests themselves, you should build the dependencies as described in the README.rst.

The unit test cmake files assume here that the deps directory is on the same level as the openvpn3 directory unless overridden by the DEP_DIR variable.

The directory for cmake to build a project can be everywhere, but it is recommended to keep it outside of the source tree.

Building unit tests (assuming you are in the openvpn3 directory):

➜ mkdir ../unit_test_build
➜ cd ../unit_test_build
➜ cmake ../openvpn3
➜ cmake --build . --target coreUnitTests

Note: On Linux and Mac OS you can use make coreUnitTests instead of cmake --build

Run the unit tests:

➜  ./test/unittests/coreUnitTests --gtest_shuffle

On a Mac with OpenSSL from homebrew:

➜ cmake ../openvpn3 -DOPENSSL_ROOT_DIR=/usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1

Using mbed TLS instead of OpenSSL

➜ cmake ../openvpn3 -DUSE_MBEDTLS

A full list of build options can shown together with short descriptions can be shown with

➜ cmake -LH .

Examplary commands for building and running on Windows:

➜ cmake -DDEP_DIR=C:\o3\deps -DUSE_MBEDTLS=true -DCMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM=x64 C:\o3\openvpn3
➜ cmake --build . --target coreUnitTests
➜ test\unittests\Debug\coreUnitTests.exe --gtest_output="xml:test_core.xml" --gtest_shuffle

Frequently used command line options

Show the help for gtest command line options:

➜ ./test/unittests/coreUnitTests --help

Run only tests starting with Base64 or a sepcific Base64 test:

➜ ./test/unittests/coreUnitTests --gtest_filter='Base64.*'
➜ ./test/unittests/coreUnitTests --gtest_filter=Base64.tooshortdest

Run all test but the Base64 tests

➜ ./test/unittests/coreUnitTests --gtest_filter='-Base64.*'

Multiple pattern can be specified with a list separated by :

➜ ./test/unittests/coreUnitTests --gtest_filter='OpenSSL_X509_get_serial.*:Base64.*'

Shuffle order the order in which the tests are run:

➜ ./test/unittests/coreUnitTests --gtest_shuffle

If a certain order yields failures, repeat that order:

➜ ./test/unittests/coreUnitTests --gtest_shuffle --gtest_random_seed=23

Run also the tests that are normally disabled

➜ ./test/unittests/coreUnitTests --gtest_also_run_disabled_tests

Writing unit tests

Each new test suite should be a new a file called test_suitename.cpp and added to the CMakeLists.txt file. Each test includes an #include test_common.h at the top to setup common openvpn3 library parameters.

Currently all tests can fit in the same compilation unit coreUnitTests. If a unit test requires special compile/includes or other options that are not compatible with the rest of the unit tests, another compilation unit should be added to the CMAKELists.txt

The test_helper.cc file adds helper functions that can be used for unit tests. See the file for more information.
