This is a temporary partial fix for https://github.com/bitcoindevkit/coin-select/issues/6 that should be reverted once the upstream fix has been made. When calculating the score, the excess should be added to changeless solutions instead of those with change. Given a solution has been found, this fix adds or removes the excess to its incorrectly calculated score as required so that two changeless solutions can be differentiated if one has higher excess (and therefore pays a higher fee). Note that the `bound` function is also affected by this bug, which could mean some branches are not considered when running BnB, but at least this fix will mean the score for those solutions that are found is correct.
Lianad blackbox tests
Here we test lianad by starting it on a regression testing Bitcoin network,
and by then talking to it as an user would, from the outside.
Python scripts are used for the automation, and specifically the pytest framework.
Credits: this test framework was taken and adapted from revaultd, which was itself adapted from C-lightning's test framework.
Building the project for testing
To run the tests, we must build the debug version of lianad. Follow the instructions at doc/BUILD.md but instead of running
$ cargo build --release
Run
$ cargo build
to build the daemon for testing.
The lianad and liana-cli binaries will be in the target/debug directory at the root of the
repository.
Test dependencies
Functional tests dependencies can be installed using pip. Use a virtual environment.
# Create a new virtual environment, preferably.
python3 -m venv venv
. venv/bin/activate
# Get the deps
pip install -r tests/requirements.txt
Additionaly you need to have bitcoind installed on your computer, please
refer to bitcoincore for installation. You may use a
specific bitcoind binary by specifying the BITCOIND_PATH env var.
Running the tests
From the root of the repository:
pytest tests/
Tips and tricks
Logging
We use the Live Logging
functionality from pytest. It is configured in (pyproject.toml)[../pyproject.toml] to
output INFO-level to the console. If a test fails, the entire DEBUG log is output.
You can override the config at runtime with the --log-cli-level option:
pytest -vvv --log-cli-level=DEBUG -k test_startup
Note that we record all logs from daemons, and we start them with log_level = "debug".
Test lints
Just use black.
