Interoperability Test Case Descriptions
=======================================

Client and server use
[test.proto](../src/proto/grpc/testing/test.proto)
and the [gRPC over HTTP/2 v2 protocol](./PROTOCOL-HTTP2.md).

Client
------

Clients implement test cases that test certain functionally. Each client is
provided the test case it is expected to run as a command-line parameter. Names
should be lowercase and without spaces.

Clients should accept these arguments:
* --server_host=HOSTNAME
    * The server host to connect to. For example, "localhost" or "127.0.0.1"
* --server_host_override=HOSTNAME
    * The server host to claim to be connecting to, for use in TLS and HTTP/2
      :authority header. If unspecified, the value of --server_host will be
      used
* --server_port=PORT
    * The server port to connect to. For example, "8080"
* --test_case=TESTCASE
    * The name of the test case to execute. For example, "empty_unary"
* --use_tls=BOOLEAN
    * Whether to use a plaintext or encrypted connection
* --use_test_ca=BOOLEAN
    * Whether to replace platform root CAs with
      [ca.pem](https://github.com/grpc/grpc/blob/master/src/core/tsi/test_creds/ca.pem)
      as the CA root
* --default_service_account=ACCOUNT_EMAIL
    * Email of the GCE default service account.
* --oauth_scope=SCOPE
    * OAuth scope. For example, "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/xapi.zoo"
* --service_account_key_file=PATH
    * The path to the service account JSON key file generated from GCE developer
    console.

Clients must support TLS with ALPN. Clients must not disable certificate
checking.

### empty_unary

This test verifies that implementations support zero-size messages. Ideally,
client implementations would verify that the request and response were zero
bytes serialized, but this is generally prohibitive to perform, so is not
required.

Server features:
* [EmptyCall][]

Procedure:
 1. Client calls EmptyCall with the default Empty message

Client asserts:
* call was successful
* response is non-null

*It may be possible to use UnaryCall instead of EmptyCall, but it is harder to
ensure that the proto serialized to zero bytes.*

### cacheable_unary

This test verifies that gRPC requests marked as cacheable use GET verb instead
of POST, and that server sets appropriate cache control headers for the response
to be cached by a proxy. This test requires that the server is behind
a caching proxy. Use of current timestamp in the request prevents accidental
cache matches left over from previous tests.

Server features:
* [CacheableUnaryCall][]

Procedure:
 1. Client calls CacheableUnaryCall with `SimpleRequest` request with payload
    set to current timestamp. Timestamp format is irrelevant, and resolution is
    in nanoseconds.
    Client adds a `x-user-ip` header with value `1.2.3.4` to the request.
    This is done since some proxys such as GFE will not cache requests from
    localhost.
    Client marks the request as cacheable by setting the cacheable flag in the
    request context. Longer term this should be driven by the method option
    specified in the proto file itself.
 2. Client calls CacheableUnaryCall again immediately with the same request and
    configuration as the previous call.

Client asserts:
* Both calls were successful
* The payload body of both responses is the same.

### large_unary

This test verifies unary calls succeed in sending messages, and touches on flow
control (even if compression is enabled on the channel).

Server features:
* [UnaryCall][]

Procedure:
 1. Client calls UnaryCall with:

    ```
    {
      response_size: 314159
      payload:{
        body: 271828 bytes of zeros
      }
    }
    ```

Client asserts:
* call was successful
* response payload body is 314159 bytes in size
* clients are free to assert that the response payload body contents are zero
  and comparing the entire response message against a golden response

### client_compressed_unary

This test verifies the client can compress unary messages by sending two unary
calls, for compressed and uncompressed payloads. It also sends an initial
probing request to verify whether the server supports the [CompressedRequest][]
feature by checking if the probing call fails with an `INVALID_ARGUMENT` status.

Server features:
* [UnaryCall][]
* [CompressedRequest][]

Procedure:
 1. Client calls UnaryCall with the feature probe, an *uncompressed* message:
    ```
    {
      expect_compressed:{
        value: true
      }
      response_size: 314159
      payload:{
        body: 271828 bytes of zeros
      }
    }
    ```

 1. Client calls UnaryCall with the *compressed* message:

    ```
    {
      expect_compressed:{
        value: true
      }
      response_size: 314159
      payload:{
        body: 271828 bytes of zeros
      }
    }
    ```

 1. Client calls UnaryCall with the *uncompressed* message:

    ```
    {
      expect_compressed:{
        value: false
      }
      response_size: 314159
      payload:{
        body: 271828 bytes of zeros
      }
    }
    ```

    Client asserts:
    * First call failed with `INVALID_ARGUMENT` status.
    * Subsequent calls were successful.
    * Response payload body is 314159 bytes in size.
    * Clients are free to assert that the response payload body contents are
      zeros and comparing the entire response message against a golden response.


### server_compressed_unary

This test verifies the server can compress unary messages. It sends two unary
requests, expecting the server's response to be compressed or not according to
the `response_compressed` boolean.

Whether compression was actually performed is determined by the compression bit
in the response's message flags. *Note that some languages may not have access
to the message flags, in which case the client will be unable to verify that
the `response_compressed` boolean is obeyed by the server*.


Server features:
* [UnaryCall][]
* [CompressedResponse][]

Procedure:
 1. Client calls UnaryCall with `SimpleRequest`:

    ```
    {
      response_compressed:{
        value: true
      }
      response_size: 314159
      payload:{
        body: 271828 bytes of zeros
      }
    }
    ```

    ```
    {
      response_compressed:{
        value: false
      }
      response_size: 314159
      payload:{
        body: 271828 bytes of zeros
      }
    }
    ```
    Client asserts:
    * call was successful
    * if supported by the implementation, when `response_compressed` is true,
      the response MUST have the compressed message flag set.
    * if supported by the implementation, when `response_compressed` is false,
      the response MUST NOT have the compressed message flag set.
    * response payload body is 314159 bytes in size in both cases.
    * clients are free to assert that the response payload body contents are
      zero and comparing the entire response message against a golden response


### client_streaming

This test verifies that client-only streaming succeeds.

Server features:
* [StreamingInputCall][]

Procedure:
 1. Client calls StreamingInputCall
 2. Client sends:

    ```
    {
      payload:{
        body: 27182 bytes of zeros
      }
    }
    ```

 3. Client then sends:

    ```
    {
      payload:{
        body: 8 bytes of zeros
      }
    }
    ```

 4. Client then sends:

    ```
    {
      payload:{
        body: 1828 bytes of zeros
      }
    }
    ```

 5. Client then sends:

    ```
    {
      payload:{
        body: 45904 bytes of zeros
      }
    }
    ```

 6. Client half-closes

Client asserts:
* call was successful
* response aggregated_payload_size is 74922


### client_compressed_streaming

This test verifies the client can compress requests on per-message basis by
performing a two-request streaming call. It also sends an initial probing
request to verify whether the server supports the [CompressedRequest][] feature
by checking if the probing call fails with an `INVALID_ARGUMENT` status.

Procedure:
 1. Client calls `StreamingInputCall` and sends the following feature-probing
    *uncompressed* `StreamingInputCallRequest` message

    ```
    {
      expect_compressed:{
        value: true
      }
      payload:{
        body: 27182 bytes of zeros
      }
    }
    ```
    If the call does not fail with `INVALID_ARGUMENT`, the test fails.
    Otherwise, we continue.

 1. Client calls `StreamingInputCall` again, sending the *compressed* message

    ```
    {
      expect_compressed:{
        value: true
      }
      payload:{
        body: 27182 bytes of zeros
      }
    }
    ```

 1. And finally, the *uncompressed* message
    ```
    {
      expect_compressed:{
        value: false
      }
      payload:{
        body: 45904 bytes of zeros
      }
    }
    ```

 1. Client half-closes

Client asserts:
* First call fails with `INVALID_ARGUMENT`.
* Next calls succeeds.
* Response aggregated payload size is 73086.


### server_streaming

This test verifies that server-only streaming succeeds.

Server features:
* [StreamingOutputCall][]

Procedure:
 1. Client calls StreamingOutputCall with `StreamingOutputCallRequest`:

    ```
    {
      response_parameters:{
        size: 31415
      }
      response_parameters:{
        size: 9
      }
      response_parameters:{
        size: 2653
      }
      response_parameters:{
        size: 58979
      }
    }
    ```

Client asserts:
* call was successful
* exactly four responses
* response payload bodies are sized (in order): 31415, 9, 2653, 58979
* clients are free to assert that the response payload body contents are zero
  and comparing the entire response messages against golden responses

### server_compressed_streaming

This test verifies that the server can compress streaming messages and disable
compression on individual messages, expecting the server's response to be
compressed or not according to the `response_compressed` boolean.

Whether compression was actually performed is determined by the compression bit
in the response's message flags. *Note that some languages may not have access
to the message flags, in which case the client will be unable to verify that the
`response_compressed` boolean is obeyed by the server*.

Server features:
* [StreamingOutputCall][]
* [CompressedResponse][]


Procedure:
 1. Client calls StreamingOutputCall with `StreamingOutputCallRequest`:

      }
      response_parameters:{
        compressed: {
          value: false
        }
        size: 92653
      }
    }
    ```

    Client asserts:
    * call was successful
    * exactly two responses
    * if supported by the implementation, when `response_compressed` is false,
      the response's messages MUST NOT have the compressed message flag set.
    * if supported by the implementation, when `response_compressed` is true,
      the response's messages MUST have the compressed message flag set.
    * response payload bodies are sized (in order): 31415, 92653
    * clients are free to assert that the response payload body contents are
      zero and comparing the entire response messages against golden responses

      }
    }
    ```

 4. After getting a reply, it sends:

    ```
    {
      response_parameters:{

* exactly zero responses

### compute_engine_creds

This test is only for cloud-to-prod path.

This test verifies unary calls succeed in sending messages while using Service
Credentials from GCE metadata server. The client instance needs to be created
with desired oauth scope.

The test uses `--default_service_account` with GCE service account email and
`--oauth_scope` with the OAuth scope to use. For testing against
grpc-test.sandbox.googleapis.com, "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/xapi.zoo"
should
be passed in as `--oauth_scope`.

Server features:
* [UnaryCall][]
* [Echo Authenticated Username][]
* [Echo OAuth Scope][]

Procedure:
 1. Client configures channel to use GCECredentials
 2. Client calls UnaryCall on the channel with:

    ```
    {
      response_size: 314159
      payload:{
        body: 271828 bytes of zeros
      }
      fill_username: true
      fill_oauth_scope: true
    }
    ```

Client asserts:
* call was successful
* received SimpleResponse.username equals the value of
  `--default_service_account` flag
* received SimpleResponse.oauth_scope is in `--oauth_scope`
* response payload body is 314159 bytes in size
* clients are free to assert that the response payload body contents are zero
  and comparing the entire response message against a golden response

### jwt_token_creds

This test is only for cloud-to-prod path.

This test verifies unary calls succeed in sending messages while using JWT
token (created by the project's key file)

Test caller should set flag `--service_account_key_file` with the
path to json key file downloaded from
https://console.developers.google.com. Alternately, if using a
usable auth implementation, she may specify the file location in the environment
variable GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS.

Server features:
* [UnaryCall][]
* [Echo Authenticated Username][]
* [Echo OAuth Scope][]

Procedure:
 1. Client configures the channel to use JWTTokenCredentials
 2. Client calls UnaryCall with:

    ```
    {
      response_size: 314159
      payload:{
        body: 271828 bytes of zeros
      }
      fill_username: true
    }
    ```

Client asserts:
* call was successful
* received SimpleResponse.username is not empty and is in the json key file used
by the auth library. The client can optionally check the username matches the
email address in the key file or equals the value of `--default_service_account`
flag.
* response payload body is 314159 bytes in size
* clients are free to assert that the response payload body contents are zero
  and comparing the entire response message against a golden response

### oauth2_auth_token

This test is only for cloud-to-prod path and some implementations may run
in GCE only.

This test verifies unary calls succeed in sending messages using an OAuth2 token
that is obtained out of band. For the purpose of the test, the OAuth2 token is
actually obtained from a service account credentials or GCE credentials via the
language-specific authorization library.

The difference between this test and the other auth tests is that it
first uses the authorization library to obtain an authorization token.

The test
- uses the flag `--service_account_key_file` with the path to a json key file
downloaded from https://console.developers.google.com. Alternately, if using a
usable auth implementation, it may specify the file location in the environment
variable GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS, *OR* if GCE credentials is used to
fetch the token, `--default_service_account` can be used to pass in GCE service
account email.
- uses the flag `--oauth_scope` for the oauth scope.  For testing against
grpc-test.sandbox.googleapis.com, "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/xapi.zoo"
should be passed as the `--oauth_scope`.

Server features:
* [UnaryCall][]
* [Echo Authenticated Username][]
* [Echo OAuth Scope][]

Procedure:
 1. Client uses the auth library to obtain an authorization token
 2. Client configures the channel to use AccessTokenCredentials with the access
    token obtained in step 1
 3. Client calls UnaryCall with the following message

    ```
    {
      fill_username: true
      fill_oauth_scope: true
    }
    ```

Client asserts:
* call was successful
* received SimpleResponse.username is valid. Depending on whether a service
account key file or GCE credentials was used, client should check against the
json key file or GCE default service account email.
* received SimpleResponse.oauth_scope is in `--oauth_scope`

### per_rpc_creds

Similar to the other auth tests, this test is only for cloud-to-prod path.

This test verifies unary calls succeed in sending messages using a JWT or a
service account credentials set on the RPC.

The test
- uses the flag `--service_account_key_file` with the path to a json key file
downloaded from https://console.developers.google.com. Alternately, if using a
usable auth implementation, it may specify the file location in the environment
variable GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS
- optionally uses the flag `--oauth_scope` for the oauth scope if implementator
wishes to use service account credential instead of JWT credential. For testing
against grpc-test.sandbox.googleapis.com, oauth scope
"https://www.googleapis.com/auth/xapi.zoo" should be used.

Server features:
* [UnaryCall][]
* [Echo Authenticated Username][]
* [Echo OAuth Scope][]

Procedure:
 1. Client configures the channel with just SSL credentials
 2. Client calls UnaryCall, setting per-call credentials to
    JWTTokenCredentials. The request is the following message

    ```
    {
      fill_username: true
    }
    ```

Client asserts:
* call was successful
* received SimpleResponse.username is not empty and is in the json key file used
by the auth library. The client can optionally check the username matches the
email address in the key file.


### custom_metadata

This test verifies that custom metadata in either binary or ascii format can be
sent as initial-metadata by the client and as both initial- and trailing-metadata
by the server.

Server features:
* [UnaryCall][]
* [FullDuplexCall][]
* [Echo Metadata][]

Procedure:
 1. The client attaches custom metadata with the following keys and values:

    ```
    key: "x-grpc-test-echo-initial", value: "test_initial_metadata_value"
    key: "x-grpc-test-echo-trailing-bin", value: 0xababab
    ```

    to a UnaryCall with request:

    ```
    {
      response_size: 314159
      payload:{
        body: 271828 bytes of zeros
      }
    }
    ```

 2. The client attaches custom metadata with the following keys and values:

    ```
    key: "x-grpc-test-echo-initial", value: "test_initial_metadata_value"
    key: "x-grpc-test-echo-trailing-bin", value: 0xababab
    ```

    to a FullDuplexCall with request:

    ```
    {
      response_parameters:{
        size: 314159
      }
      payload:{
        body: 271828 bytes of zeros
      }
    }
    ```

    and then half-closes

Client asserts:
* call was successful
* metadata with key `"x-grpc-test-echo-initial"` and value
  `"test_initial_metadata_value"`is received in the initial metadata for calls
  in Procedure steps 1 and 2.
* metadata with key `"x-grpc-test-echo-trailing-bin"` and value `0xababab` is
  received in the trailing metadata for calls in Procedure steps 1 and 2.



### status_code_and_message

      }
    }
    ```

 2. Client calls FullDuplexCall with:

    ```
    {
      response_status:{
        code: 2
        message: "test status message"
      }
    }
    ```

but before payloads are sent.

Server features:
* [StreamingInputCall][]

Procedure:
 1. Client starts StreamingInputCall
 2. Client immediately cancels request

Client asserts:

### cancel_after_first_response

This test verifies that a request can be cancelled after receiving a message
from the server.

Server features:
* [FullDuplexCall][]

Procedure:
 1. Client starts FullDuplexCall with

    ```
    {
      response_parameters:{
        size: 31415
      }
      payload:{
        body: 27182 bytes of zeros
      }
    }
    ```

      }
    }
    ```

 2. Client waits

Client asserts:
* Call completed with status DEADLINE_EXCEEDED.

### concurrent_large_unary

Status: TODO

Client performs 1000 large_unary tests in parallel on the same channel.

### Flow control. Pushback at client for large messages (TODO: fix name)

Status: TODO

This test verifies that a client sending faster than a server can drain sees
pushback (i.e., attempts to send succeed only after appropriate delays).

### Experimental Tests

These tests are not yet standardized, and are not yet implemented in all
languages. Therefore they are not part of our interop matrix.

#### rpc_soak

The client performs many large_unary RPCs in sequence over the same channel. 
The number of RPCs is configured by the experimental flag, `soak_iterations`.

#### channel_soak

The client performs many large_unary RPCs in sequence. Before each RPC, it 
tears down and rebuilds the channel. The number of RPCs is configured by 
the experimental flag, `soak_iterations`.

This tests puts stress on several gRPC components; the resolver, the load 
balancer, and the RPC hotpath.

### TODO Tests

#### High priority:

Propagation of status code and message (yangg)

Multiple thousand simultaneous calls on same Channel (ctiller)

Metadata: client headers, server headers + trailers, binary+ascii

#### Normal priority:

Cancel before start (ctiller)

Cancel after sent first message (ctiller)

Cancel after received headers (ctiller)

Timeout but completed before expire (zhaoq)

Multiple thousand simultaneous calls timeout on same Channel (ctiller)

#### Lower priority:

Flow control. Pushback at client for large messages (abhishek)

Flow control. Pushback at server for large messages (abhishek)

Going over max concurrent streams doesn't fail (client controls itself)
(abhishek)

RPC method not implemented (yangg)

Multiple thousand simultaneous calls on different Channels (ctiller)

Failed TLS hostname verification (ejona?)

Large amount of headers to cause CONTINUATIONs; 63K of 'X's, all in one header.

#### To priorize:

Start streaming RPC but don't send any requests, server responds

### Postponed Tests

Resilience to buggy servers: These tests would verify that a client application
isn't affected negatively by the responses put on the wire by a buggy server
(e.g. the client library won't make the application crash).

Reconnect after transport failure

Reconnect backoff

Fuzz testing


Server
------

Servers implement various named features for clients to test with. Server
features are orthogonal. If a server implements a feature, it is always
available for clients. Names are simple descriptions for developer
communication and tracking.

Servers should accept these arguments:

* --port=PORT

    * The port to listen on. For example, "8080"

* --use_tls=BOOLEAN

    * Whether to use a plaintext or encrypted connection

Servers must support TLS with ALPN. They should use
[server1.pem](https://github.com/grpc/grpc/blob/master/src/core/tsi/test_creds/server1.pem)
for their certificate.

### EmptyCall
[EmptyCall]: #emptycall

Server implements EmptyCall which immediately returns the empty message.

### UnaryCall
[UnaryCall]: #unarycall

Server implements UnaryCall which immediately returns a SimpleResponse with a
payload body of size `SimpleRequest.response_size` bytes and type as appropriate
for the `SimpleRequest.response_type`. If the server does not support the
`response_type`, then it should fail the RPC with `INVALID_ARGUMENT`.

### CacheableUnaryCall
[CacheableUnaryCall]: #cacheableunarycall

Server gets the default SimpleRequest proto as the request. The content of the
request is ignored. It returns the SimpleResponse proto with the payload set
to current timestamp.  The timestamp is an integer representing current time
with nanosecond resolution. This integer is formated as ASCII decimal in the
response. The format is not really important as long as the response payload
is different for each request. In addition it adds
  1. cache control headers such that the response can be cached by proxies in
     the response path. Server should be behind a caching proxy for this test
     to pass. Currently we set the max-age to 60 seconds.

### CompressedResponse
[CompressedResponse]: #compressedresponse

When the client sets `response_compressed` to true, the server's response is
sent back compressed. Note that `response_compressed` is present on both
`SimpleRequest` (unary) and `StreamingOutputCallRequest` (streaming).

### CompressedRequest
[CompressedRequest]: #compressedrequest

When the client sets `expect_compressed` to true, the server expects the client
request to be compressed. If it's not, it fails the RPC with `INVALID_ARGUMENT`.
Note that `response_compressed` is present on both `SimpleRequest` (unary) and
`StreamingOutputCallRequest` (streaming).

### StreamingInputCall
[StreamingInputCall]: #streaminginputcall

Server implements StreamingInputCall which upon half close immediately returns
a StreamingInputCallResponse where aggregated_payload_size is the sum of all
request payload bodies received.

### StreamingOutputCall
[StreamingOutputCall]: #streamingoutputcall

Server implements StreamingOutputCall by replying, in order, with one
StreamingOutputCallResponse for each ResponseParameters in
StreamingOutputCallRequest. Each StreamingOutputCallResponse should have a
payload body of size ResponseParameters.size bytes, as specified by its
respective ResponseParameters. After sending all responses, it closes with OK.

### FullDuplexCall
[FullDuplexCall]: #fullduplexcall

Server implements FullDuplexCall by replying, in order, with one
StreamingOutputCallResponse for each ResponseParameters in each
StreamingOutputCallRequest. Each StreamingOutputCallResponse should have a
payload body of size ResponseParameters.size bytes, as specified by its
respective ResponseParameters. After receiving half close and sending all
responses, it closes with OK.

### Echo Status
[Echo Status]: #echo-status
When the client sends a response_status in the request payload, the server closes
the stream with the status code and messsage contained within said response_status.
The server will not process any further messages on the stream sent by the client.
This can be used by clients to verify correct handling of different status codes and
associated status messages end-to-end.

### Echo Metadata
[Echo Metadata]: #echo-metadata
When the client sends metadata with the key `"x-grpc-test-echo-initial"` with its
request, the server sends back exactly this key and the corresponding value back to
the client as part of initial metadata. When the client sends metadata with the key
`"x-grpc-test-echo-trailing-bin"` with its request, the server sends back exactly this
key and the corresponding value back to the client as trailing metadata.

### Observe ResponseParameters.interval_us
[Observe ResponseParameters.interval_us]: #observe-responseparametersinterval_us

In StreamingOutputCall and FullDuplexCall, server delays sending a
StreamingOutputCallResponse by the ResponseParameters's `interval_us` for that
particular response, relative to the last response sent. That is, `interval_us`
acts like a sleep *before* sending the response and accumulates from one
response to the next.

Interaction with flow control is unspecified.

### Echo Auth Information

Status: Pending

#### Echo Authenticated Username
[Echo Authenticated Username]: #echo-authenticated-username

If a SimpleRequest has fill_username=true and that request was successfully
authenticated, then the SimpleResponse should have username filled with the
canonical form of the authenticated source. The canonical form is dependent on
the authentication method, but is likely to be a base 10 integer identifier or
an email address.

#### Echo OAuth scope
[Echo OAuth Scope]: #echo-oauth-scope

If a SimpleRequest has `fill_oauth_scope=true` and that request was successfully
authenticated via OAuth, then the SimpleResponse should have oauth_scope filled
with the scope of the method being invoked.

Although a general server-side feature, most test servers won't implement this
feature. The TLS server `grpc-test.sandbox.googleapis.com:443` supports this
feature. It requires at least the OAuth scope
`https://www.googleapis.com/auth/xapi.zoo` for authentication to succeed.

Discussion:

Ideally, this would be communicated via metadata and not in the
request/response, but we want to use this test in code paths that don't yet
fully communicate metadata.
