Those are tests in testing/scripts/readwrite*

Those tests are in testing/pluto/*

Antony and I have been working on bring these tests up (from its orignal
UML base to the current KVM base). It works but is still very rough
at the edges, due to some recent changes, like systemd and its own
core dump handling, 9p filesystem mounts, etc.

But anyone with fedora18beta or better can build the test harnass using:

testing/libvirt/install.sh

and run a test, say basic-pluto-01, by running:

cd testing/pluto/basic-pluto-01
../../utils/do.test.sh

You can manually login to the main two test VMs east and west using ssh
to 192.1.2.23/192.1.2.45. To setup a test within the guest, you can run:

/testing/guestbin/swaninit basic-pluto-01

you can then either run /testing/guestbin/swanrun to start the test (on
the initiator, usually west, not east) or you can look at the control
file in /testing/pluto/basic-pluto-01/westrun.sh and issue those
commands manually to see where it is failing.

If anyone wants help running tests, please come to IRC at #swan on
freenode.
