The testing framework in this tutorial uses the Casper engine test support crate for testing the contract implementation against the Casper execution environment.
The following section reviews the GitHub testing folder, which creates a testing framework for the Casper Fungible Token project. You can find more details about testing Casper contracts here.
The following is an example of a complete test expecting a failed transfer:
#[should_panic(expected = "ApiError::User(65534) [131070]")]
#[test]
fn should_not_transfer_with_insufficient_balance() {
let mut fixture = TestFixture::install_contract();
let initial_ali_balance = fixture.balance_of(Key::from(fixture.ali)).unwrap();
assert_eq!(fixture.balance_of(Key::from(fixture.bob)), None);
fixture.transfer(
Key::from(fixture.bob),
initial_ali_balance + U256::one(),
fixture.ali,
);
}
To build and run the tests, issue the following command in the project folder, cep18:
make test
The project contains a Makefile, which is a custom build script that compiles the contract before running tests in release mode. Then, the script copies the contract.wasm
file to the tests/wasm directory. In practice, you only need to run the make test
command during development.
In this project, we define a tests
package using the tests/Cargo.toml file.
[package]
name = "tests"
version = "1.0.0"
...
[dependencies]
casper-types = "2.0.0"
casper-engine-test-support = "4.0.0"
casper-execution-engine = "4.0.0"
once_cell = "1.16.0"
[lib]
name = "tests"
...
In Github, you will find an example containing a Casper Fungible Token contract implementation with the corresponding tests. The tests follow this sequence:
- Step 1 - Specify the starting state of the blockchain.
- Step 2 - Deploy the compiled contract to the blockchain and query it.
- Step 3 - Create additional deploys for calling each of the entrypoints in the contract.
The TestFixture accomplishes these steps by simulating a real-world deploy that stores the contract on the blockchain and then invoking the contract's entrypoints.
The code in the utility directory initializes the blockchain's global state with all the data and entrypoints the smart contract needs.
Expand the example below to see a subset of the required constants for this project. The testing framework defines constants via the constants.rs
file within the utility
directory. For the most up-to-date version of the code, visit GitHub.
Example of required constants
// File https://github.com/casper-ecosystem/cep18/blob/dev/tests/src/utility/installer_request_builders.rs
use casper_engine_test_support::{
ExecuteRequestBuilder, InMemoryWasmTestBuilder, DEFAULT_ACCOUNT_ADDR,
MINIMUM_ACCOUNT_CREATION_BALANCE, PRODUCTION_RUN_GENESIS_REQUEST,
};
use casper_execution_engine::core::engine_state::ExecuteRequest;
use casper_types::{
account::AccountHash, bytesrepr::FromBytes, runtime_args, system::mint, CLTyped, ContractHash, ContractPackageHash, Key, RuntimeArgs, U256,
};
use crate::utility::constants::{
ALLOWANCE_AMOUNT_1, ALLOWANCE_AMOUNT_2, TOTAL_SUPPLY_KEY, TRANSFER_AMOUNT_1, TRANSFER_AMOUNT_2,
};
use super::constants::{
ACCOUNT_1_ADDR, ACCOUNT_2_ADDR, ARG_ADDRESS, ARG_AMOUNT, ARG_DECIMALS, ARG_NAME, ARG_OWNER, ARG_RECIPIENT, ARG_SPENDER, ARG_SYMBOL, ARG_TOKEN_CONTRACT, ARG_TOTAL_SUPPLY, CEP18_CONTRACT_WASM, CEP18_TEST_CONTRACT_KEY, CEP18_TEST_CONTRACT_WASM, CEP18_TOKEN_CONTRACT_KEY, CHECK_ALLOWANCE_OF_ENTRYPOINT, CHECK_BALANCE_OF_ENTRYPOINT,CHECK_TOTAL_SUPPLY_ENTRYPOINT, METHOD_APPROVE, METHOD_APPROVE_AS_STORED_CONTRACT,METHOD_TRANSFER, METHOD_TRANSFER_AS_STORED_CONTRACT, RESULT_KEY, TOKEN_DECIMALS, TOKEN_NAME, TOKEN_SYMBOL, TOKEN_TOTAL_SUPPLY,
};
The next step is to define a struct that has its own virtual machine (VM) instance and implements the Fungible Token entrypoints. This struct holds a TestContext
of its own. The contract_hash and the session_code won’t change after the contract is deployed, so it is good to keep them handy.
This code snippet builds the context and includes the compiled contract .wasm binary being tested. The TestContext
struct creates a new instance of the cep18_token
with several test accounts.
Note: These accounts have a positive initial balance.
The full and most recent code implementation is available on GitHub.
Example of a CEP-18 token in a test
// File https://github.com/casper-ecosystem/cep18/blob/dev/tests/src/utility/installer_request_builders.rs
// Creating the `TestContext` struct.
pub(crate) struct TestContext {
pub(crate) cep18_token: ContractHash,
pub(crate) cep18_test_contract_package: ContractPackageHash,
}
// Setting up the test instance of CEP-18.
pub(crate) fn setup() -> (InMemoryWasmTestBuilder, TestContext) {
setup_with_args(runtime_args! {
ARG_NAME => TOKEN_NAME,
ARG_SYMBOL => TOKEN_SYMBOL,
ARG_DECIMALS => TOKEN_DECIMALS,
ARG_TOTAL_SUPPLY => U256::from(TOKEN_TOTAL_SUPPLY),
})
}
// Establishing test accounts.
pub(crate) fn setup_with_args(install_args: RuntimeArgs) -> (InMemoryWasmTestBuilder, TestContext) {
let mut builder = InMemoryWasmTestBuilder::default();
builder.run_genesis(&PRODUCTION_RUN_GENESIS_REQUEST);
let id: Option<u64> = None;
let transfer_1_args = runtime_args! {
mint::ARG_TARGET => *ACCOUNT_1_ADDR,
mint::ARG_AMOUNT => MINIMUM_ACCOUNT_CREATION_BALANCE,
mint::ARG_ID => id,
};
let transfer_2_args = runtime_args! {
mint::ARG_TARGET => *ACCOUNT_2_ADDR,
mint::ARG_AMOUNT => MINIMUM_ACCOUNT_CREATION_BALANCE,
mint::ARG_ID => id,
};
let transfer_request_1 =
ExecuteRequestBuilder::transfer(*DEFAULT_ACCOUNT_ADDR, transfer_1_args).build();
let transfer_request_2 =
ExecuteRequestBuilder::transfer(*DEFAULT_ACCOUNT_ADDR, transfer_2_args).build();
// Installing the test version of CEP-18 with the default account.
let install_request_1 =
ExecuteRequestBuilder::standard(*DEFAULT_ACCOUNT_ADDR, CEP18_CONTRACT_WASM, install_args)
.build();
let install_request_2 = ExecuteRequestBuilder::standard(
*DEFAULT_ACCOUNT_ADDR,
CEP18_TEST_CONTRACT_WASM,
RuntimeArgs::default(),
)
.build();
builder.exec(transfer_request_1).expect_success().commit();
builder.exec(transfer_request_2).expect_success().commit();
builder.exec(install_request_1).expect_success().commit();
builder.exec(install_request_2).expect_success().commit();
let account = builder
.get_account(*DEFAULT_ACCOUNT_ADDR)
.expect("should have account");
let cep18_token = account
.named_keys()
.get(CEP18_TOKEN_CONTRACT_KEY)
.and_then(|key| key.into_hash())
.map(ContractHash::new)
.expect("should have contract hash");
let cep18_test_contract_package = account
.named_keys()
.get(CEP18_TEST_CONTRACT_KEY)
.and_then(|key| key.into_hash())
.map(ContractPackageHash::new)
.expect("should have contract package hash");
let test_context = TestContext {
cep18_token,
cep18_test_contract_package,
};
(builder, test_context)
}
The previous step has simulated sending a real deploy on the network. The next code snippet in installer_request_builders.rs
defines helper functions that will be used throughout the testing framework:
cep18_check_total_supply
- A function for testing the total supply of the CEP-18 contract instance.cep18_check_balance_of
- A function for checking an account's balance of CEP-18 tokens.cep18_check_allowance_of
- A function for checking an account's spending allowance from another account's balance.
These are followed by functions that check specific aspects of the CEP-18 contract. These include test_cep18_transfer
, make_cep18_approve_request
and test_approve_for
.
The following code snippet is an example function that tests the ability to transfer CEP-18 tokens from the default address to the two other addresses established in contract installation:
Example helper function
// File https://github.com/casper-ecosystem/cep18/blob/dev/tests/src/utility/installer_request_builders.rs
pub(crate) fn test_cep18_transfer(
builder: &mut InMemoryWasmTestBuilder,
test_context: &TestContext,
sender1: Key,
recipient1: Key,
sender2: Key,
recipient2: Key) {
let TestContext { cep18_token, .. } = test_context;
// Defining the amount to be transferred to each account.
let transfer_amount_1 = U256::from(TRANSFER_AMOUNT_1);
let transfer_amount_2 = U256::from(TRANSFER_AMOUNT_2);
// Checking the pre-existing balances of the default address and the two receiving addresses.
let sender_balance_before = cep18_check_balance_of(builder, cep18_token, sender1);
assert_ne!(sender_balance_before, U256::zero());
let account_1_balance_before = cep18_check_balance_of(builder, cep18_token, recipient1);
assert_eq!(account_1_balance_before, U256::zero());
let account_2_balance_before = cep18_check_balance_of(builder, cep18_token, recipient1);
assert_eq!(account_2_balance_before, U256::zero());
// Creating the first transfer request.
let token_transfer_request_1 =
make_cep18_transfer_request(sender1, cep18_token, recipient1, transfer_amount_1);
builder
.exec(token_transfer_request_1)
.expect_success()
.commit();
// Checking the prior balance against the new balance to ensure the transfer occurred correctly.
let account_1_balance_after = cep18_check_balance_of(builder, cep18_token, recipient1);
assert_eq!(account_1_balance_after, transfer_amount_1);
let account_1_balance_before = account_1_balance_after;
let sender_balance_after = cep18_check_balance_of(builder, cep18_token, sender1);
assert_eq!(
sender_balance_after,
sender_balance_before - transfer_amount_1
);
let sender_balance_before = sender_balance_after;
// Creating the second transfer request.
let token_transfer_request_2 =
make_cep18_transfer_request(sender2, cep18_token, recipient2, transfer_amount_2);
builder
.exec(token_transfer_request_2)
.expect_success()
.commit();
// Checking prior balances against new balances.
let sender_balance_after = cep18_check_balance_of(builder, cep18_token, sender1);
assert_eq!(sender_balance_after, sender_balance_before);
let account_1_balance_after = cep18_check_balance_of(builder, cep18_token, recipient1);
assert!(account_1_balance_after < account_1_balance_before);
assert_eq!(
account_1_balance_after,
transfer_amount_1 - transfer_amount_2
);
let account_2_balance_after = cep18_check_balance_of(builder, cep18_token, recipient2);
assert_eq!(account_2_balance_after, transfer_amount_2);
}
Within this testing context, the tests
directory includes a variety of unit tests, which verify the contract code by invoking the functions defined in the installer_request_builders.rs file.
The example below shows one of the tests. Visit GitHub to find all the available tests.

let inverted_owner_key = invert_cep18_address(owner_key);
let inverted_owner_balance =

}
The lib.rs file is configured to run the example integration tests via the make test
command:
#[cfg(test)]
mod allowance;
#[cfg(test)]
mod install;
#[cfg(test)]
mod mint_and_burn;
#[cfg(test)]
mod transfer;
#[cfg(test)]
mod utility;
To run the tests, navigate to the parent cep18 directory and run the command:
make test
This example uses bash
. If you are using a Rust IDE, you need to configure it to run the tests.
