Regression tests of RPC interface
=================================
### [python-bitcoinrpc](https://github.com/jgarzik/python-bitcoinrpc)
Git subtree of [https://github.com/jgarzik/python-bitcoinrpc](https://github.com/jgarzik/python-bitcoinrpc).
Changes to python-bitcoinrpc should be made upstream, and then
pulled here using git subtree.
### [test_framework/test_framework.py](test_framework/test_framework.py)
Base class for new regression tests.
### [test_framework/util.py](test_framework/util.py)
Generally useful functions.
Bash-based tests, to be ported to Python:
-----------------------------------------
- conflictedbalance.sh : More testing of malleable transaction handling
Notes
=====
You can run a single test by calling `qa/pull-tester/rpc-tests.sh <testname>`.
Run all possible tests with `qa/pull-tester/rpc-tests.sh -extended`.
Possible options:
````
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--nocleanup Leave bitcoinds and test.* datadir on exit or error
--noshutdown Don't stop bitcoinds after the test execution
--srcdir=SRCDIR Source directory containing bitcoind/bitcoin-cli (default:
../../src)
--tmpdir=TMPDIR Root directory for datadirs
--tracerpc Print out all RPC calls as they are made
```
If you set the environment variable `PYTHON_DEBUG=1` you will get some debug output (example: `PYTHON_DEBUG=1 qa/pull-tester/rpc-tests.sh wallet`).
A 200-block -regtest blockchain and wallets for four nodes
is created the first time a regression test is run and
is stored in the cache/ directory. Each node has 25 mature
blocks (25*50=1250 BTC) in its wallet.
After the first run, the cache/ blockchain and wallets are
copied into a temporary directory and used as the initial
test state.
If you get into a bad state, you should be able
to recover with:
```bash
rm -rf cache
killall bitcoind
```
