Testing your contracts

Framework

platon truffle comes standard with an automated testing framework to make testing your contracts a breeze. This framework lets you write simple and manageable tests in two different ways:

  • In Javascript and TypeScript, for exercising your contracts from the outside world, just like your application.
  • In Solidity, for exercising your contracts in advanced, bare-to-the-metal scenarios.

Both styles of tests have their advantages and drawbacks. See the next two sections for a discussion of each one.

Location

All solidity contract test files should be located in the ./test directory. platon truffle will only run test files with the following file extensions: .js, .ts, .es, .es6, and .jsx, and .sol. All other files are ignored.

All wasm contract test files should be located in the ./test/wasm directory

Command

To run all tests, simply run:

$ platon-truffle test

Alternatively, you can specify a path to a specific file you want to run, e.g.,

$ platon-truffle test ./path/to/test/file.js

You can also specify tests to run wasm contracts(contracts with null params to init)

$ platon-truffle test --wasm

You Can also specify specific wasm contracts to run test, If contract initialization parameters are not empty

$ platon-truffle test --wasm --contract-name ${ContractName} --params "[[], ]"
