# `simple.py` — Example Config Files

Each `.txt` file in this directory targets a distinct error path so you can
observe `simple.py`'s behaviour for every failure class. Run them from the
`python/` directory.

---

## `all-ok.txt` — all sites respond successfully

```sh
python simple.py configs/all-ok.txt
echo "exit: $?"
```

Expected output:
```
OK        xxx.xx ms  https://example.com
OK        xxx.xx ms  https://www.google.com
OK        xxx.xx ms  https://www.iana.org
exit: 0
```

---

## `dns-failure.txt` — DNS resolution fails

Hostnames use the `.invalid` TLD (RFC 2606), which is guaranteed never to
resolve. Fails in milliseconds.

```sh
python simple.py configs/dns-failure.txt
echo "exit: $?"
```

Expected output:
```
FAIL   ([Errno 8] nodename nor servname provided, or not known)  https://this-host-does-not-exist.invalid
FAIL   ([Errno 8] nodename nor servname provided, or not known)  http://no.such.host.invalid
exit: 1
```

---

## `connection-refused.txt` — TCP connection refused

Loopback addresses with no server listening. The OS rejects the SYN immediately
(sub-millisecond failure).

```sh
python simple.py configs/connection-refused.txt
echo "exit: $?"
```

Expected output:
```
FAIL   ([Errno 61] Connection refused)  http://127.0.0.1:9999
FAIL   ([Errno 61] Connection refused)  http://127.0.0.1:19999
exit: 1
```

---

## `timeout.txt` — connect hangs until timeout

Non-routable IPs (private/documentation ranges) silently drop TCP SYNs.
`simple.py` waits the full **10-second** timeout per host.

> ⚠️ This run takes approximately **20 seconds** to complete.

```sh
python simple.py configs/timeout.txt
echo "exit: $?"
```

Expected output (after ~20 s):
```
FAIL   (timed out)  http://10.255.255.1/
FAIL   (timed out)  http://192.0.2.1/
exit: 1
```

---

## `tls-errors.txt` — TLS certificate errors

Uses [badssl.com](https://badssl.com) endpoints with intentionally broken
certificates. Requires internet access; badssl.com must be reachable.

```sh
python simple.py configs/tls-errors.txt
echo "exit: $?"
```

Expected output:
```
FAIL   ([SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: certificate has expired …)     https://expired.badssl.com/
FAIL   ([SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: self-signed certificate …)     https://self-signed.badssl.com/
FAIL   ([SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer …)  https://incomplete-chain.badssl.com/
exit: 1
```

> **Note:** badssl.com occasionally resets connections mid-handshake. When that
> happens, the error reads `[Errno 54] Connection reset by peer` instead of
> `CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED`. The key behaviour is the same — every entry is
> reported as `FAIL` and the script exits 1. This demonstrates that `simple.py`
> handles both SSL-level and network-level TLS failures uniformly.

---

## `http-errors.txt` — HTTP 4xx / 5xx status codes

`urllib.request.urlopen()` raises `HTTPError` for 4xx/5xx, so `simple.py`
reports these as `FAIL` even though the server responded. The URLs are real
paths that reliably return 404 on stable public servers. Requires internet
access.

```sh
python simple.py configs/http-errors.txt
echo "exit: $?"
```

Expected output:
```
FAIL   (HTTP Error 404: Not Found)  https://www.google.com/this-page-does-not-exist-at-all-1234567890
FAIL   (HTTP Error 404: Not Found)  https://github.com/this-repo-does-not-exist-abcxyz123/no-way
FAIL   (HTTP Error 404: Not Found)  https://www.iana.org/this-page-does-not-exist-either
exit: 1
```

---

## `mixed.txt` — one of each (no timeout)

One successful site followed by one entry from each fast error class (DNS,
connection-refused, TLS, HTTP). Timeout is excluded so the run completes
quickly.

```sh
python simple.py configs/mixed.txt
echo "exit: $?"
```

Expected output:
```
OK        xxx.xx ms  https://example.com
FAIL   ([Errno 8] nodename nor servname …)        https://no.such.host.invalid
FAIL   ([Errno 61] Connection refused)             http://127.0.0.1:9999
FAIL   ([SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] …)       https://self-signed.badssl.com/
FAIL   (HTTP Error 404: Not Found)                 https://github.com/this-repo-does-not-exist-abcxyz123/no-way
exit: 1
```

> **Note:** the TLS entry may occasionally show `[Errno 54] Connection reset by peer`
> instead of `CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED` — badssl.com sometimes drops the connection
> before the handshake completes. Both are reported as `FAIL`; run `tls-errors.txt`
> in isolation for consistent cert-verification messages.

## Run all configs

Iterate over every config file (skip `timeout.txt` for a quick sweep, or omit
the exclusion to run all):

```sh
# Quick sweep — skips the slow timeout config
for f in configs/*.txt; do
    [[ "$f" == *timeout* ]] && continue
    echo
    echo "=== $f ==="
    python simple.py "$f"
    echo "exit: $?"
done
```

```sh
# Full sweep — includes timeout (~20 s extra)
for f in configs/*.txt; do
    echo
    echo "=== $f ==="
    python simple.py "$f"
    echo "exit: $?"
done
```
