Autobahn testsuite fuzzingclient:can the tested server reframe echo replies?

[Vinnie Falco]

I added a feature to my websocket implementation which optionally fragments outgoing messages according to an optional user defined size and now autobahn tests which would cause my code to generate fragments don't pass.

Does autobahn testsuite fuzzing clientrequire that the server it tests preserve frames (i.e. upon receipt of every frame it should send back an identical frame)? Or will the fuzzingclient work with servers that re-frame messages arbitrarily?

Thanks

Which ones? Have you examined the wirelogs in the resulting reports?

Sure. The peer can reframe as it wishes. That's part of RFC6455.

In fact, Autobahn has an option to auto-fragment outgoing traffic too
(both client and server), and the testsuite has tests that use that:
