Description

Zonemaster is a software package that validates the quality of a DNS delegation. The ambition of the Zonemaster project is to develop and maintain an open source DNS validation tool.

This module provides the backend infrastructure for Zonemaster, implementing a JSON-RPC API server and test agent daemon. It manages test scheduling, result storage, and system configuration through multiple database backends (MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite). The Backend enables integration with web interfaces and automation tools while maintaining a persistent history of test results.
