All Node classes in individual test cases subclass from NodeConnCB. Many
have duplicate definitions for methods that are defined in the base
class. This commit removes those duplicate definitions.
This commit removes ~290 lines of duplicate code.
This commit adds some helper functions to NodeConnCB which are useful
for many tests:
- NodeConnCB now keeps track of the number of each message type that
it's received and the most recent message of each type. Many tests
assert on the most recent block, tx or reject message.
- NodeConnCB now keeps track of its connection state by setting a
connected boolean in on_open() and on_close()
- NodeConnCB now has wait_for_block, wait_for_getdata,
wait_for_getheaders, wait_for_inv and wait_for_verack methods
I have updated the individual test cases to make sure that there are no
namespace problems that cause them to fail with these new definitions.
Future commits will remove the duplicate code.
This commit merges the NodeConnCB and SingleNodeConnCB into a single
class (called NodeConnCB). The original intent for the NodeConnCB was to
be able to have a python 'mininode' connect to multiple running
bitcoinds. This has never been used and can be achieved more easily by
having multiple NodeConns backed by a common datastore if it is ever
needed.
The changes in mininode.py are just code moves (and merging the two
classes into a single class). The code changes in the individual test
cases are changing the subclasses to subclass from NodeConnCB instead of
SingleNodeConnCB. There is a lot of duplicate code in the subclasses
that can be removed in future commits.
This commit fixes the module-level docstrings for the tests and helper
modules in qa. Many of these tests were uncommented previously - this
commit ensures that every test case has at least a minimum level of
commenting.
This is certainly not exhaustive, but it's better than nothing. Adds checks
for:
- Any message received before sending a version
- Any message received other than version/reject before sending a verack
It also tries to goad the remote into sending a pong, address, or block
announcement.
