Hi,
I'm happy to see you're using Varnish, but it seems the VCL configuration is a bit outdated.

I've made a few commits I hope will be helpful.

Summary:

Lastly, I've added some simple varnishtest testcases, these can be ran with the varnishtest utility which comes in the same package as varnish, but it's most powerful when ran using the official docker image in CI.
The tests I've added are just one for checking that the configuration is correct, compiles and passes one requet, and one for demonstrating cookie handling, but more advanced tests can be made, for example to test purging and caching of specific requests and responses.

Please let me know what you think, and if you have inputs to this I'm happy to make changes to make it better for you.

TODO:

  • Ask for Code Review.

This code is different with Varnish 6, since if ttl+grace is expired, vcl_hit will not be called.
Adding cases for more than hit/miss, and adding whether varnish deems
the content cacheable/uncacheable to aid in debugging cache headers.
Not using full path for includes also allows for VCL outside of /etc/varnish, for testing or more flexible configuration.

can we get an expect here, for the status, or maybe for the x-cache header?
