This fixes https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1968 (Add ability in test framework to compare two values in result) in a general way: adding an optional extra_check key to the test dict, so a custom checking function with access to the whole result can be called. The particular test mentioned in that issue, checking that the uidnumber and gidnumber for new isers are the same, is added. Also, this adds a docstring to the Declarative class. And finally, the test dictionary is passed to check() via keyword arguments, preventing spelling mistakes in keys from going unnoticed.
IPA Server
What is it?
-----------
For efficiency, compliance and risk mitigation, organizations need to
centrally manage and correlate vital security information including:
* Identity (machine, user, virtual machines, groups, authentication
credentials)
* Policy (configuration settings, access control information)
* Audit (events, logs, analysis thereof)
Since these are not new problems. there exist many approaches and
products focused on addressing them. However, these tend to have the
following weaknesses:
* Focus on solving identity management across the enterprise has meant
less focus on policy and audit.
* Vendor focus on Web identity management problems has meant less well
developed solutions for central management of the Linux and Unix
world's vital security info. Organizations are forced to maintain
a hodgepodge of internal and proprietary solutions at high TCO.
* Proprietary security products don't easily provide access to the
vital security information they collect or manage. This makes it
difficult to synchronize and analyze effectively.
