Bump - is anyone interested in reviewing this or at least discussing direction? It's difficult to contribute to stalled projects.

more amount of generalisation as we would not only want to use it for DHCp but all kind of services

Thanks, that makes sense. Do you think the current outstanding change could be merged in? It's not resulting in any incompatibilities (that I'm aware of), and while it doesn't fix the problem entirely on its own (doesn't include infrastructure work), it improves the code under test.

As far as I can tell (from README), smoke tests are meant more to be integration than unit tests:

I managed to make the DHCP configuration testable, although the code has some hardcoded paths which I didn't want to mess with too much, so my addition may be suboptimal.
