This makes NodeConnCB a subclass of NodeConn, and
removes the need for the client code to know
anything about the implementation details of NodeConnCB.
NodeConn can now be swapped out for any other implementation
of a low-level connection without changing client code.
p2p connections can now be added to TestNode instances.
This commit also updates the example test to use the new
p2p interface in TestNode to demonstrate usage.
A future commit will update the existing tests to use p2p through the
TestNode.
Separates the act of creating a TestNode object from starting the node.
The test_framework now keeps track of its list of TestNodes, and test
writers can call start_node() and stop_node() without having to update
the self.nodes list.
Fixes a couple of bugs from the introduction of TestNode:
- test scripts were no longer able to specify a custom timeout for
starting a node. Therefore tests with nodes that take a long time to
start up (eg pruning.py) would fail.
- the test for whether a node has failed on start up was broken
by changing 'assert x is None' to 'assert not x'. Since
subprocess.poll() can return None (indicating the node is still running)
or 0 (indicating the node exited with return code 0), this was a
regression.
When running the tests locally with a parallelism of 4 on an otherwise
busy system, RPC can take quite a wait to come up.
Change the timeout to 60 seconds just to be safe.
TestNode is a class responsible for all state related to a bitcoind node
under test. It stores local state, is responsible for tracking the
bitcoind process and delegates unrecognised messages to the RPC
connection.
This commit changes start_nodes and stop_nodes to start and stop the
bitcoind nodes in parallel, making test setup and teardown much faster.
