fuzzstream: Induce corner-case behavior in a Readable stream consumer

fuzzstream is a pass-through stream that re-chunks incoming data and induces arbitrary delays before propagating data in order to exercise corner cases in Readable stream consumers.

Example

$ cat examples/fuzzstream.js
/*
 * examples/fuzzstream.js: basic FuzzStreams example
 */

var FuzzStream = require('../lib/fuzzstream');

var start, stream;

start = Date.now();
console.log('%dms: start', Date.now() - start);

/* Defaults: randomly chunk up data and induce propagation delays up to 3s. */
stream = new FuzzStream();
stream.on('data', function (chunk) {
        console.log('%dms: "%s"', Date.now() - start, chunk.toString('utf8'));
});
stream.on('end', function () {
        console.log('%dms: end', Date.now() - start);
});

stream.write('What a piece of work is man. ');
stream.write('How noble in reason, how infinite in faculty, ');
stream.write('in action how like an angel, ');
stream.write('in apprehension how like a god!');
stream.write('');
stream.end('End transmission.');


$ node examples/fuzzstream.js 
1ms: start
31ms: "What a piece of work is man"
32ms: ". "
32ms: "How noble in reason, how infinite in faculty, in action how like an
angel, "
43ms: "in apprehension how li"
55ms: "ke"
147ms: " a god!"
168ms: "End transmission."
168ms: end
