New description:

 Test that Psiphon 3 [0] is working properly.
 The test must:
 execute the Psiphon 3 client command
 check that the output text of the command match the expected output text
 check that is possible to make an HTTP request using the Psiphon3 SOCKS
 proxy
 Open questions are:
 should the test install the client too?
 which could be the possible failures bootstrapping Psiphon 3 client?
 what debug information can we get from the software that would allow us to
 understand why and how it is being blocked ?
 Psiphon 3 has a python client that can be run in linux. [1]
 It uses SSH dynamic port forwarding to create a local SOCKS proxy.
 It can use the system ssh command or the one provided in the Server code.
 By default the SOCKS proxy listen on 0.0.0.0:1080, but this can be changed
 in the psi_client.py
 Add documentation/script about the installation process here?
