Ethers Test Suite

There are a lot of test cases, and it can take a while for them to all run.

Please be patient.

Running Tests

Node.js:

# Test everything (in node)
/Users/ricmoo/ethers.js> npm test

# Test everything (in phantomjs)
/Users/ricmoo/ethers.js> npm run-script test-phantomjs


# Test just one specific package

# Test the Solidity ABI coder
# - See tests/contract-interface.json.gz
/Users/ricmoo/ethers.js> ./node_modules/.bin/mocha test-contract-interface.js

# Test HD Wallet derivations
# - See tests/hdnode.json.gz
/Users/ricmoo/ethers.js> ./node_modules/.bin/mocha test-hdnode.js

# Test general utilities
# - See tests/namehash.json.gz
# - See tests/rlp-coder.json.gz
# - See tests/units.json.gz
/Users/ricmoo/ethers.js> ./node_modules/.bin/mocha test-utils.js

# Test accounts and addresses
# - See tests/accounts.json.gz
/Users/ricmoo/ethers.js> ./node_modules/.bin/mocha test-account.js

# Test encrypting/decrypting JSON wallets and transaction parsing/signing
# - See tests/transactions.json.gz
# - See tests/wallets.json.gz
/Users/ricmoo/ethers.js> ./node_modules/.bin/mocha test-wallet.js

Test Cases

The testcases take up a large amount of space, so they are gzipped in the /tests/tests/ folder. See /tests/utils.js for saving and loading.

To dump a test case from the terminal, you can use:

/Users/ricmoo/ethers.js> cat ./tests/accounts.json.gz | gunzip

Building Testcases

Each suite of testcases is produced from a variety of sources. Many include a specific set of test vectors as well as procedurally generated tests using known correct implementations.

The contract-interface test cases are created by selecting a (deterministically) random set of types and values, a solidity contract is then created to represent a contract with the correct return types and values, which is then compiled and deployed to a local Ethereum node, then executed once mined.

As a result, genearting the test cases can take quite some time. So, they are generated using a separate set of files found in make-tests.

  • make-accounts
  • make-contract-interface
  • make-hdnode
  • makr-rlpcoder
  • make-transaction
  • make-wallets

Additional Test Vectors:

  • make-tests/test-mnemonics -- The trezor test vectors for BIP39
  • make-tests/test-wallets -- Sample JSON Wallets (crowdsale and Geth)

All generated JSON test files are then placed gzipped in tests with the extension '.json.gz'.

Adding Test Cases

For any patch, feature upgrade or pull request of any sort, there must be relevant test cases added and all test cases must pass.

If you report a bug and provide test cases, it will get attention sooner.
