etherlime test

Syntax

etherlime test [path] [timeout] [skip-compilation] [gas-report] [runs] [solcVersion]
[output] [port]

Parameters:

path - [Optional] By specifying path you can set a path to a
selected directory or you can set the path directly to the
javascript file which contains your tests. By default the path
points to ./test.
timeout - [Optional] This parameter defines the test timeout in
milliseconds. Defaults to 2000 ms.
skip-compilation - [Optional] This parameter controls wether a
compilation will be ran before the tests are started. Default:
false.
gas-report - [Optional] Enables Gas reporting future that will
show Gas Usage after each test. Default: false.
runs - [Optional] By specifying runs between 1 and 999 you
enabled the optimizer and set how many times the optimizer will be
run. By default the optimizer is not enabled.
solcVersion - [Optional] By specifying solcVersion you can
set the version of the solc which will be used for compiling the
smart contracts. By default it use the solc version from the
node_modules folder.
output - [Optional] Defines the way that the logs are shown.
Choices: none - silences the output of logs, normal - see
verbose logs in the console and structured - structured output in
a file meant for inter program communication.
port - [Optional] The port that the etherlime ganache is runing.
Used for wiring up the default accounts correctly. Defaults to 8545

Global Objects

We've augmented the test runner with the following things you can use:

In your unit tests you can use the global accounts object. It
contains the secretKey (private key) and instance of ethers.Wallet
of the account.
The assert object has function:
- assert.revert(promiseOfFailingTransaction) for testing reverting transactions
- assert.revertWith(promiseOfFailingTransaction, expectedRevertMessage) for testing reverting transaction with specific revert message
- assert.notRevert(promiseOfNotFailingTransaction) for testing transaction is executed successfully
- assert.isAddress(value) for testing a value is a proper address
- assert.isPrivateKey(value) for testing a value is a proper private key
- assert.isHash(value) for testing a value is a proper hex
- assert.emit(function, eventName) for testing an event is emitted after function execution
- assert.emitWithArgs(function, eventName, [args]) for testing an event is emitted with certain arguments after function execution
- assert.balanceChanged(function, account, value) for testing the balance of an account has been changed after function execution
- assert.balancesChanged(function, [accounts], [values]) for testing the balances of multiple accounts has been changed after function execution

Available Utils

On your disposal there is a global available utils object. Here are the methods it exposes:

utils.timeTravel(provider, seconds) method allowing etherlime
ganache to move seconds ahead. You need to pass your provider
from the EtherlimeGanacheDeployer
utils.setTimeTo(provider, timestamp) method allowing etherlime
ganache to move to the desired timestamp ahead. You need to pass
your provider from the EtherlimeGanacheDeployer
utils.mineBlock(provider) method telling the etherlime ganache
to mine the next block. You need to pass your provider from the
EtherlimeGanacheDeployer
utils.snapshot(provider) snapshot the state of the blockchain at the current block. Returns the integer id of the snapshot created
utils.revertState(provider, snapshotID) revert the state of the blockchain to a previous snapshot.
If no snapshot id is passed it will revert to the latest snapshot. Returns true.
utils.hasEvent(receipt, contract, eventName) allowing the user
to check if the desired event was broadcasted in the transaction
receipt. You need to pass the Transaction receipt, the contract
that emits it and the name of the Event.
utils.parseLogs(receipt, contract, eventName) allowing the user
get parsed events from a transaction receipt. You need to pass the
Transaction receipt, the contract that emits it and the name of
the Event. Always returns an event.

Examples

General Example

    const etherlime = require('etherlime-lib');
    const Billboard = require('../build/Billboard.json');

    describe('Example', () => {
        let owner = accounts[3];
        let deployer;

        beforeEach(async () => {
            deployer = new etherlime.EtherlimeGanacheDeployer(owner.secretKey);
        });

        it('should set correct owner', async () => {
            const BillboardContract = await deployer.deploy(Billboard, {});
            let _owner = await BillboardContract.owner();

            assert.strictEqual(_owner, owner.signer.address,
              'Initial contract owner does not match');
