With the release branch on Monday, I decided to look at the wiki page
and see what was supposed to be there...
a) Move towards test-driven development:
This sort of was a failure - even though the wiki indicates that
MITKC staff must provide testing scripts for every new feature. Looking
at the various projects - not many: Some projects included testing -
like the crypto modularity, and encryption performance. Notable "failures"
i) Improved API for verifying and interrogating authorization data
- examples on WIKI - but no tests written
ii) Versatile crypto configuration - no tests that I can see w/
DEFAULT enctypes or parsing code
iii) Lockout for repeated login failures - no test code either
iv) Services4User - test program exists - but not automated....
b) Features claimed but not met:
i) Disable DES by default - looking at the code in init_ctx.c - I
believe the default is still for DES tickets...
Someone could add the pid file for kadmind/kdc as an enhanced
Administrator experience.
