Cory Fields 005b5af6e2 rpc-tests: don't spew non-errors to stdout
There's a brief race here, the process might've already exited and cleaned up
after itself. If that's the case, reading from the pidfile will harmlessly
fail. Keep those quiet.

Regression tests of RPC interface

python-bitcoinrpc

Git subtree of https://github.com/jgarzik/python-bitcoinrpc. Changes to python-bitcoinrpc should be made upstream, and then pulled here using git subtree.

test_framework.py

Base class for new regression tests.

listtransactions.py

Tests for the listtransactions RPC call.

util.py

Generally useful functions.

Bash-based tests, to be ported to Python:

  • wallet.sh : Exercise wallet send/receive code.
  • walletbackup.sh : Exercise wallet backup / dump / import
  • txnmall.sh : Test proper accounting of malleable transactions
  • conflictedbalance.sh : More testing of malleable transaction handling

Notes

A 200-block -regtest blockchain and wallets for four nodes is created the first time a regression test is run and is stored in the cache/ directory. Each node has 25 mature blocks (25*50=1250 BTC) in their wallet.

After the first run, the cache/ blockchain and wallets are copied into a temporary directory and used as the initial test state.

If you get into a bad state, you should be able to recover with:

rm -rf cache
killall bitcoind
