zcash_local_net

Overview

Utilities that launch and manage Zcash processes. This is used for integration testing in the development of:

• lightclients
• indexers
• validators

List of Managed Processes

• Zebrad
• Zcashd
• Zainod
• Lightwalletd

Prerequisites

An internet connection will be needed (during the fist build at least) in order to fetch the required testing binaries. The binaries will be automagically checked and downloaded on cargo build/check/test. If you specify None in a process launch config, these binaries will be used. The path to the binaries can be specified when launching a process. In that case, you are responsible for compiling the needed binaries. Each processes launch fn and [crate::LocalNet::launch] take config structs for defining parameters such as path locations. See the config structs for each process in validator.rs and indexer.rs for more details.

Launching multiple processes

See [crate::LocalNet].

Testing

See [crate::test_fixtures] doc comments for running client rpc tests from external crates for indexer/validator development.

Test should be run with the test_fixtures feature enabled.
