[Interop] What can I do?

[Gaston Dombiak]

I know that you are Python devs but I don't know if there is already an
XMPP library in Python that also provides a testing framework.

Anyway, for Java devs you can take Smack as a good starting point. Smack
is an XMPP library (written in Java) that has over 100 automated test
cases (close to 150 I think) in the form of JUnit. The test cases are
functional test cases. It would be nice to leverage from that work and
keep adding more tests.

One thing we need is to build a list of test cases (no matter the dev
language we use to implement them). We can "reuse" Smack test cases to
build that list and keep adding more test cases to the list.

Step 1: Visit http://www.xmpp.org/interop/ and complete the 
confidentiality agreement. In order to get on the network for testing 
purposes, you MUST complete this mini-NDA. It makes everyone more 
comfortable.

Step 2: Maybe your want to help write a test suites. I know that Brendan

Taylor is interested in that, also in Python:
