mininode.py provides a framework for connecting to a bitcoin node over the p2p
network. NodeConn is the main object that manages connectivity to a node and
provides callbacks; the interface for those callbacks is defined by NodeConnCB.
Defined also are all data structures from bitcoin core that pass on the network
(CBlock, CTransaction, etc), along with de-/serialization functions.
maxblocksinflight.py is an example test using this framework that tests whether
a node is limiting the maximum number of in-flight block requests.
This also adds support to util.py for specifying the binary to use when
starting nodes (for tests that compare the behavior of different bitcoind
versions), and adds maxblocksinflight.py to the pull tester.
Immature coinbase spends are allowed in the memory pool if they can be mined in the next block.
They are not allowed in the memory pool if they cannot be mined in the next block.
This regression test tests those edge cases.
Ported txnmall.sh to Python, and updated to match
recent transaction malleability changes.
I also modified it so it tests both double-spending
confirmed and unconfirmed (only-in-mempool) transactions.
Renamed to txn_doublespend, since that is really what is
being tested. And told the pull-tester to run both
variations on this test.
