Missing test client?

[cpu]

After fixing some low-hanging Docker issues (#3) I've stalled out on trying to address this build error:

configure.ac:263: error: required file 'test/clients/Makefile.in' not found
src/Makefile.am: installing './depcomp'
autoreconf: automake failed with exit status: 1

Indeed, this error makes some sense because it looks like tests/clients/Makefile.am is empty: https://github.com/icing/mod_tls/blob/4a21751efd2921a523933d18eaece89df5ae057f/test/clients/Makefile.am

Removing test/clients/Makefile from configure.ac's AC_CONFIG_FILE arguments does let the build complete, but all of the tests fail with output like:

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/abetterinternet/mod_tls/test/clients'

So obviously some kind of client is expected to be built 😆

It looks like the Python code and assoc. bits in the test/ directory in this repo aren't quite in sync with HTTPD trunk prior to the mod_tls removal. I made a quick attempt to update this repo's contents (ignoring bits I thought weren't relevant) hoping that would solve the problem, but at the end I was no closer to resolving this error.

I'm throwing in the towel for now and filing this issue hoping someone more familiar with the PyTest apparatus can spot the obvious issue I'm overlooking :-)
