Protocol E2E Tests

FTPS, WebDAV, and SFTP protocol end-to-end tests for RustFS.

Prerequisites

No external SSH tooling is required. The test framework generates ed25519 host keys in-process via russh::keys under the per-test temp directory before each SFTP server spawn, and russh-sftp drives the protocol from the test process directly.

Running Tests

Use the canonical CI-equivalent protocol command in the parent e2e_test README.

For targeted debugging of the core suite only:

python3 scripts/e2e_binary.py build --features ftps,webdav,sftp
python3 scripts/e2e_binary.py run --features ftps,webdav,sftp -- cargo test --package e2e_test test_protocol_core_suite -- --test-threads=1 --nocapture

This targeted command does not cover the full e2e-protocols profile.

e2e_binary.py supplies RUSTFS_BUILD_FEATURES from the verified server's resolved Cargo features. The protocol runner schedules only entries present in that feature list; helpers check that their required features are available without rebuilding the server. --test-threads=1 is required because every entry spawns a rustfs server on fixed bind ports.

Test Coverage

FTPS Tests

• mkdir bucket
• cd to bucket
• put file
• ls list objects
• cd . (stay in current directory)
• cd / (return to root)
• cd nonexistent bucket (should fail)
• delete object
• cdup
• rmdir delete bucket

WebDAV Tests

• PROPFIND at root (list buckets)
• MKCOL (create bucket)
• PUT (upload file)
• GET (download file)
• PROPFIND on bucket (list objects)
• DELETE file
• MOVE file (rename object)
• DELETE bucket
• Authentication failure test

SFTP Tests

The SFTP suite lives in three entries plus a standalone idle-timeout case. Every assertion runs against a freshly spawned rustfs binary with RUSTFS_SFTP_ENABLE=true; the test framework also pins RUSTFS_SFTP_PART_SIZE=5242880 so the multipart boundary is deterministic.

sftp_core (test_sftp_core_operations)

Bind ports 9022 (SFTP) and 9200 (S3). 22 in-suite assertions covering the core protocol surface plus cross-protocol consistency:

• Subsystem canary: SFTPv3 version exchange completes after password auth
• Bucket lifecycle: mkdir, root listing, rmdir, post-delete listing
• Small-file round-trip with SHA256 compare
• Stat on a file (size + file type) and on a bucket (directory)
• SETSTAT on a path returns ok
• Rename within bucket, listing reflects the rename
• Multipart-sized round-trip (just over 2 × part_size) with SHA256 compare
• Negative cases: symlink rejected, open of nonexistent file rejected, read_dir of nonexistent bucket rejected, path traversal rejected
• Spec-letter assertions: APPEND open returns an error, CREATE+EXCLUDE on an existing path returns an error, bad-password authentication is rejected
• Cross-protocol via aws-sdk-s3: SFTP write then S3 read with SHA256 match, S3 write then SFTP read with SHA256 match
• Cross-API directory visibility: SFTP-created sub-directory visible via S3 ListObjectsV2, S3-created __XLDIR__ marker visible via SFTP readdir as a directory entry

sftp_compliance (test_sftp_compliance_suite)

Bind ports 9024 (SFTP) and 9300 (S3). 14 compliance regression cases against one shared server spawn. Each case carries a stable CMPTST-NN identifier:

• CMPTST-01: medium-binary upload then download with SHA256 compare (single-shot PutObject path below the multipart boundary)
• CMPTST-02: zero-byte upload, download, and stat-size match
• CMPTST-03: rm against a bucket path is rejected; the bucket is preserved
• CMPTST-04: rmdir against a non-empty bucket is rejected; the contained object survives
• CMPTST-05: rmdir against a non-empty sub-directory is rejected; the inner object survives
• CMPTST-06: open with a path-traversal pattern cannot leak a host file via SFTP read
• CMPTST-07: read_dir of /.. either errors or returns a listing that contains no host system entries
• CMPTST-08: rename across buckets preserves payload and removes the source object
• CMPTST-09: paths with embedded spaces round-trip through the russh-sftp client
• CMPTST-10: read_link is rejected (S3 storage has no symlinks)
• CMPTST-11: SETSTAT on a path and FSETSTAT on a separate open handle both return ok (rsync, WinSCP transfer-success contract)
• CMPTST-12: rename to the same path is a no-op; the file persists with the original payload
• CMPTST-13: implicit-directory round-trip; uploading to a nested key creates the parent directory implicitly and three listing forms surface the inner file
• CMPTST-14: OPEN, WRITE, FSETSTAT, CLOSE on the same write handle all return ok (WinSCP wire shape)

sftp_compliance_readonly (test_sftp_compliance_readonly)

Bind ports 9025 (SFTP) and 9301 (S3). Spawns a second rustfs binary with RUSTFS_SFTP_READ_ONLY=true; the S3 endpoint stays writable so the suite can seed a bucket and a fixture object via aws-sdk-s3 before opening the SFTP session. 7 compliance cases:

• CMPTST-15: put through SFTP is rejected
• CMPTST-16: rm through SFTP is rejected
• CMPTST-17: mkdir through SFTP is rejected
• CMPTST-18: rmdir through SFTP is rejected
• CMPTST-19: rename through SFTP is rejected
• CMPTST-20: ls through SFTP is allowed and lists the seeded bucket
• CMPTST-21: get through SFTP is allowed and returns the seeded payload byte-for-byte

The full case index lives at the top of sftp_compliance.rs; each helper's log lines name its CMPTST-NN code so a failure in CI points at one named property without consulting any external doc.

sftp_idle_timeout (test_sftp_idle_timeout_disconnects)

Bind ports 9023 (SFTP) and 9100 (S3). Spawns rustfs with RUSTFS_SFTP_IDLE_TIMEOUT=5, sleeps 10 s past the timeout, then issues an SFTP request and asserts the server has closed the session.
