Thank you for the reminder to solve this. I've had a solution for the ftbfs on my local devel branch for some time, but I haven't merged and uploaded it, because it just skips the test...and of course it's better to find a proper solution for enabling functional tests when a network isn't available. Upstream and I are discussing Tornado and Autobahn. From what I've gathered Autobahn is the gold standard, and Tornado validates against Autobahn, so Tornado would provide 2nd-degree quality validation--which is probably good enough, no? After choosing a server to validate against I'm thinking that the fix will look like an alternate branch in the Emacs test. That branch is taken when a variable is set (elisp style boolean, but probably type string so it can also function as a URL for the server, and that variable will be set in dh_elpa_test config. Please feel free to periodically remind me to fix this. Worse-case scenario I'll skip the test and trust that all is well so long as elpa-atomic-chrome works correctly. That said, it's an excellent opportunity to be a proactive downstream! Regards, Nicholas
