Description

This would be implemented by introducing a new “TestConnection” process class. When a process of this class is present in a cluster, it will be sent out to all clients and they will report if they can connect to the process. This information would then be included in status JSON.

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the existing process classes, client connection reporting, and status JSON generation, then trace how a process is sent to all clients. Done means a TestConnection process can be introduced, clients report whether they connect, and that information appears in status JSON.
