Replace httptest (real TCP sockets) with tailscale.com/net/memnet
so all connections stay in-process. Wire the client's tsdial.Dialer
to the server's memnet.Network via SetSystemDialerForTest,
preserving the full Noise protocol path.
Also update servertest to use the new Node.Ephemeral.InactivityTimeout
config path introduced in the types refactor, and add WithNodeExpiry
server option for testing default node key expiry behaviour.
Updates #1711
WithTags was defined but never passed through to CreatePreAuthKey.
Fix NewClient to use CreateTaggedPreAuthKey when tags are specified,
enabling tests that need tagged nodes (e.g. via grant steering).
Updates #2180
Add three test files exercising the servertest harness:
- lifecycle_test.go: connection, disconnection, reconnection, session
replacement, and mesh formation at various sizes.
- consistency_test.go: symmetric visibility, consistent peer state,
address presence, concurrent join/leave convergence.
- weather_test.go: rapid reconnects, flapping stability, reconnect
with various delays, concurrent reconnects, and scale tests.
All tests use table-driven patterns with subtests.
Add a new hscontrol/servertest package that provides a test harness
for exercising the full Headscale control protocol in-process, using
Tailscale's controlclient.Direct as the client.
The harness consists of:
- TestServer: wraps a Headscale instance with an httptest.Server
- TestClient: wraps controlclient.Direct with NetworkMap tracking
- TestHarness: orchestrates N clients against a single server
- Assertion helpers for mesh completeness, visibility, and consistency
Export minimal accessor methods on Headscale (HTTPHandler, NoisePublicKey,
GetState, SetServerURL, StartBatcher, StartEphemeralGC) so the servertest
package can construct a working server from outside the hscontrol package.
This enables fast, deterministic tests of connection lifecycle, update
propagation, and network weather scenarios without Docker.
