EDIT: Title has been slightly changed, now. It was originally "Jepsen testing of rqlite, the distributed DB built on Raft and SQLite"
Hmm, perhaps a bit of confusion from the title. It sounds like they ran the Jepsen suite of tests against rqlite, which is great, but not done _by_ Jepsen / Kyle (https://jepsen.io). Others have done this themselves too and that's fine, but half the of the problem is correctly implementing the tests which has been done incorrectly by others in the past.
I don't see any need to rewrite the title here, so I've reverted it from "Jepsen-style testing of rqlite, the distributed DB built on Raft and SQLite".
OK, how do you suggest I change the title? I'm open to a better one. I'm used to the casual use of "Jepsen" for this type of testing. But yes, there is also the case where Kyle does the testing himself -- and this is not that.
Their implementation is up on GitHub, I'm sure they would be interested in any feedback on it.
I'd probably call it "Jepsen-testing". English is ambiguous, only so much you can do, so don't worry about it. People rag on titles too much on this site anyway.
My "ragging" is appropriate here because Jepsen is both the name of a reputable database testing group and the test suite. A lot of people do drive-by HN, without reading the specific submission too closely, and having an accurate title is important. The new title edited in is much better than the original was.
I meant to point it out in the sense of the organization, and called him out by name mostly just because he’s kind of the guy out front. I always forget his exact username.
