## Detail of tests

### afb-client-demo (command-line WebSockets)

This clients interactively calls plugins APIs from the command line, using the binder [WebSockets](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebSocket) facility.

If _afb-daemon_ has been launched with the following parameters:
```
$ afb-daemon --port=1234 --token=123456 [...]
```

Then run the client with :
```
afb-client-demo ws://localhost:1234/api?token=123456 <plugin> <verb>
```

For instance, to initialize the Audio plugin from the command line :
```
afb-client-demo ws://localhost:1234/api?token=123456 auth connect
(copy-paste the "token" field from the response)
afb-client-demo ws://localhost:1234/api?token=123456 audio init <TOKEN>
```

If _afb-daemon_ has been launched with the following parameters:
```
$ afb-daemon --port=1234 --token=123456 [...]
```
and Qt5 is installed, on **Ubuntu 16.04**:
```
$ apt-get install qmlscene qml-module-qtwebsockets qml-module-qtquick-controls
```
or on **Fedora 23** :
```
$ dnf install qt5-qtdeclarative-devel qt5-qtwebsockets-devel qt5-qtquickcontrols
