Title
create a set of regression tests for mod_cache

ASF Project
HTTP Server

Keywords
Perl, Cache, Apache module

Description
httpd has a Perl-based regression test suite. However, it does not have
any useful tests for caching. This project idea would be to come up with
a set of scenarios that verifies the proper RFC-compliance behavior of
the caching modules. If any failures are detected, identification and
analysis of the problems are expected (but not necessarily patches). Time
permitting, caching over reverse proxying would also be verified.

Possible Mentors
Justin Erenkrantz (jerenkrantz at apache dot org)

****************************

To bad the scope did not involve the reverse proxy. But anyway, hope
someone takes this one...
