- Get rid of hardcoded wallet "" names and -wallet="" args
- Get rid of setup_nodes (-wallet, -nowallet, -disablewallet) argument rewriting
Motivation:
- Simplify test framework behavior so it's easier to write new tests without
having arguments mangled by the framework
- Make tests more readable, replacing unexplained "" string literals with
default_wallet_name references
- Make it trivial to update default wallet name and wallet data filename for
sqlite #19077 testing
- Stop relying on -wallet arguments to create wallets, so it is easy to change
-wallet option in the future to only load existing wallets not create new
ones (to avoid accidental wallet creation, and encourage use of wallet
encryption and descriptor features)
No longer create a default wallet. The default wallet will still be
loaded if it exists and not other wallets were specified (anywhere,
including settings.json, bitcoin.conf, and command line).
Tests are updated to be started with -wallet= if they need the default
wallet.
Added test to wallet_startup.py testing that no default wallet is
created and that it is loaded if it exists and no other wallets were
specified.
1abcecc40c Tests: Use self.chain instead of 'regtest' in almost all current tests (Jorge Timón)
Pull request description:
Simply avoiding the hardcoded string in more places for consistency.
It can also allow for more easily reusing tests for other chains other than regtest.
Separated from #8994 .
Continues #16509 .
It is still not complete (ie to be complete, we need the -chain parameter in #16680 and make whether acceptnonstdtxs is allowed for that chain or not customizable for regtest [or for custom chains like in #8994 ] ). But while being incomplete like #16509 , it's quite simple to review and another step forward IMO.
ACKs for top commit:
Sjors:
re-ACK 1abcecc. I think it's an improvement even if incomplete and if some PR's might accidentally bring "regtest" back. Subsequent improvements hopefully don't have to touch 16 files.
