The code that is now into the tracex package was written a long time ago, so let's start to make it more in line with the coding style of packages that were written more recently. I didn't apply all the changes I'd like to apply in a single diff and for now I am committing just this diff. Broadly, what we need to do is: 1. improve documentation 2. ~always use pointer receivers (object receives have the issue that they are not mutable by accident meaning that you can mutate them but their state do not change after the call returns, which is potentially a source of bugs in case you later refactor to use a pointer receiver, so always use pointer receivers) 3. ~always avoid embedding (let's say we want to avoid embedding for types we define and it's instead fine to embed types that are defined in the stdlib: if later we add a new method, we will not see a broken build and we'll probably forget to add the new method to all wrappers -- conversely, if we're wrapping rather than embedding, we'll see a broken build and act accordingly) 4. prefer unit tests and group tests by type being tested rather than using a flat structure for tests There's a coverage slippage that I'll compensate in a follow-up diff where I'll focus on unit testing.

Directory github.com/ooni/probe-engine/experiment
This directory contains the implementation of all the supported experiments, one for each directory. The OONI spec repository contains a description of all the specified experiments.
Note that in the OONI spec repository experiments are called nettests. Originally, they were also called nettests here but that created confusion with nettests in ooni/probe-cli. Therefore, we now use the term experiment to indicate the implementation and the term nettest to indicate the user facing view of such implementation.
Note that some experiments implemented here are not part of
the OONI specification. For example, the urlgetter
experiment is not in the OONI spec repository. The reason why
this happens is that urlgetter
is an experiment "library" that
other experiments use to implement their functionality.
Likewise, the example experiment is a minimal experiment that does nothing and you could use to bootstrap the implementation of a new experiment. Of course, this experiment is not part of the OONI specification.
