Gwen Shapira resolved KAFKA-1822.
---------------------------------
Resolution: Not a Problem
> Add "echo" request
> ------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-1822
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1822
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: core
> Reporter: Gwen Shapira
> Assignee: Gwen Shapira
> Fix For: 0.8.3
>
>
> Currently there is no simple way to generate a request and validate we
> receive a response without adding a lot of dependencies for the test.
> Kafka request classes have quite a few dependencies, so they are not really
> usable when testing infrastructure components or clients.
> Generating a byte-array with meaningless request key id as it is done in
> SocketServerTest results in unknown request exception that must be handled.
> I suggest adding an EchoRequest, EchoResponse and EchoHandler. The Request
> will be the usual header and a bytearray. The Response will be a response
> header and the same bytearray echoed back.
> Should be useful for client developers and when testing infrastructure
> changes.
