             Bug #: 45499
           Summary: Unit tests fail if tcp port 4242 is already used
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: Telepathy
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: gabble
        AssignedTo: telepathy-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: alban.crequy at collabora.co.uk
         QAContact: telepathy-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org


The twisted tests framework in Gabble listens on tcp port 4242 to simulate a
Jabber server. If an application unrelated to unit tests already listens on
that port, the tests fail.

The tests could be made more resistant by trying another port if 4242 is busy.

The attached patch on tests/twisted/gabbletest.py fixes the bug for most tests.
More work is needed for some tests such as connect/test-fail.py.
