Nameserver13 does not follow the test specification and queries for SOA instead of DNSKEY

[pawal]

Nameserver13 test specification specifies that the query is DNSKEY:

Create a DNSKEY query for the Child Zone that is signed with 'DO' bit set to '1' and setting the buffer size to 512 bytes

But the implementation is a query for SOA:

my $p = $ns->query( $zone->name, q{SOA}, { usevc => 0, fallback => 0, edns_details => { version => 0, do => 1, size => 512 } } );

Which one is correct?

Thank you for reporting the bug.

The implementation must always follow the specification. In this case it is obvious that the implementation is wrong. The test case wants to trigger a large response and you will seldom get that from querying for the SOA record.

That said, the test case specification also needs an update too.

Looks like, when it was first implemented (by 059bfb9), the specification was still being stabilized and clarified only a little while later (by zonemaster/zonemaster@1d1f71f) which caused the mixup.
