Almost all test scripts currently need to override the __init__()
method. When they do that they need to call into super().__init__() as
the base class does some generic initialization.
This commit makes the base class __init__() call into set_test_params()
method. Individual test cases can override set_test_params() to setup
their test parameters.
Create a combinerawtransaction RPC which accepts a json array of hex raw
transactions to combine them into one transaction. Signrawtransaction is changed
to no longer combine transactions and only accept one transaction at a time.
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.
Tests error reporting of transaction signing via RPC call "signrawtransaction".
Expected results:
Test 1: create and sign a valid raw transaction with one input:
- 1) The transaction has a complete set of signatures
- 2) No script verification error occurred
Test 2: create and sign a raw transaction with one valid, one invalid and one missing input script:
- 3) The transaction has no complete set of signatures
- 4) Two script verification errors occurred
- 5) Script verification errors have certain properties ("txid", "vout", "scriptSig", "sequence", "error")
- 6) The verification errors refer to the invalid (vin 1) and missing input (vin 2)
