Setup for driving the pure-Kotlin QUIC client against real reference
servers, kicking off the live-interop validation that closes the loop on
the audit cycles.
PermissiveCertificateValidator (commonMain test-only):
Accepts any cert chain and any signature. For local dev servers (picoquic,
quic-go, nests-rs in Docker) where the system trust store would reject the
self-signed cert. Documented as test-only — must never be wired into
production code.
InteropRunner.main (jvmTest):
Standalone runnable that opens a UDP socket, builds a QuicConnection with
PermissiveCertificateValidator, drives the handshake under a configurable
timeout, and reports CONNECTED / HandshakeFailed / Timeout / UdpFailed
with peer transport parameters on success. Exit code 0 on connect, 1 on
any failure mode — wirable into CI.
`quic/scripts/run-picoquic.sh`:
One-line Docker harness that runs Christian Huitema's picoquic reference
server on UDP 4433. Picoquic is the IETF QUIC WG's reference impl and
the most permissive target for a fresh client (clear qlog traces, accepts
a wide range of transport params).
`./gradlew :quic:interop` Gradle task:
Wraps the runner so live-interop is one command:
./gradlew :quic:interop -PinteropHost=127.0.0.1 -PinteropPort=4433
Validated against a non-running server: returns Timeout cleanly with
exit 1 (the failure-path proves the harness wires correctly).
Workflow documented in `quic/scripts/README.md` covering picoquic,
quic-go, aioquic, quiche, and the eventual graduation path to the
quic-interop-runner Docker matrix at https://interop.seemann.io.
Next step: actually run picoquic in Docker and chase whatever real-world
incompatibilities surface. Each will be a focused fix commit.
