Basic password checking: the test

[bronto]

...and here is the test:

#!/usr/bin/perl

use Test::More qw(no_plan) ;

my ($username,@userinfo) =
  (qw(bronto Marco Marongiu),'San Gavino') ;

my $good = 'c0m&c@z%' ;
my @passwords = ('shrt',       # too short
                 'waytoolong', # too long
                 'pitbull',    # doesn't contain digits/symbols
                 '!@#$%^&',    # doesn't contain digits/alphas
                 '12345678',   # doesn't contain symbols/alphas
                 'pitbul1',    # doesn't contain symbols
                 'pitbull@',   # doesn't contain digits
                 '!@#$1234',   # doesn't contain alphas
                 'manyyyyy',   # too many y's
                 't1c&t1c&',   # password matches itself after rotatio
+ns
                 'nto1bro%',   # stripped rot. password matches userna
+me
                 'oc$ra1m;',   # stripped reversed password matches na
+me
                 "comar1\$",   # stripped rot. password matches name
                 'ma0$ron',    # stripped rot. password matches surnam
+e
                 'sang@v1n',   # stripped rot. password matches city
                 '!gavian0',   # stripped rot. password and city match
) ;

my $ok = "password ok" ;

require './passcheck.pl' ;

is($ok,passcheck($username,$good,@userinfo),"$good is good") ;

foreach (@passwords) {
  my $check = passcheck($username,$_,@userinfo) ;
  isnt($ok,$check,"$_: $check") ;
}

Ciao!

The very nature of Perl to be like natural language--inconsistant and full of dwim and special cases--makes it impossible to know it all without simply memorizing the documentation (which is not complete or totally correct anyway).
