netunit 0.2.5

Network testing framework

# Purpose This project aims to provide some tools to write test suites for network firewalls.

Imagine an office network separated into several subnets all connected through a router firewalling according to the purpose of these networks. It can be really easy to mess up with firewall rules and unintentionally allow clients in the guest subnet access to protected resources.

Writing a testsuite can help to have a good amount of confidence on firewall changes.
