We could write the client test code in java or a tangle of perl libraries, or load custom software onto tiny, USB-powered computers and hand them out to literally tens of people that we meet in niche technical meetings around the world. Or use the preferred devops approach of wget | sh as root, although I'm not sure we should insist on that level of security.
