Trdelník

developed by Ackee Blockchain

Trdelník is Rust based testing framework providing several convenient developer tools for testing Solana programs written in Anchor.

• Trdelnik client - build and deploy an Anchor program to a local cluster and run a test suite against it;
• Trdelnik console - built-in console to give developers a command prompt for quick program interaction;
• Trdelnik fuzz - property-based and stateful testing;
• Trdelnik explorer - exploring a ledger changes.

Dependencies

• Install Rust (nightly release)
• Install Solana tool suite (stable release)
• Install Anchor

Installation

cargo install trdelnik-cli

# or the specific version

cargo install --version <version> trdelnik-cli

Usage

# navigate to your project root directory
trdelnik init
# it will generate `.program_client` and `trdelnik-tests` directories with all the necessary files
trdelnik test
# want more?
trdelnik --help

How to write tests?

// <my_project>/trdelnik-tests/tests/test.rs
// TODO: do not forget to add all necessary dependencies to the generated `trdelnik-tests/Cargo.toml`
use program_client::my_instruction;
use trdelnik_client::*;
use my_program;

#[throws]
#[fixture]
async fn init_fixture() -> Fixture {
  // create a test fixture
  let mut fixture = Fixture {
    client: Client::new(system_keypair(0)),
    // make sure your program is using a correct program ID
    program: program_keypair(1),
    state: keypair(42),
  };
  // deploy a tested program
  fixture.deploy().await?;
  // call instruction init
  my_instruction::initialize(
    &fixture.client,
    fixture.state.pubkey(),
    fixture.client.payer().pubkey(),
    System::id(),
    Some(fixture.state.clone()),
  ).await?;
  fixture
}

#[trdelnik_test]
async fn test_happy_path(#[future] init_fixture: Result<Fixture>) {
  let fixture = init_fixture.await?;
  // call the instruction
  my_instruction::do_something(
    &fixture.client,
    "dummy_string".to_owned(),
    fixture.state.pubkey(),
    None,
  ).await?;
  // check the test result
  let state = fixture.get_state().await?;
  assert_eq!(state.something_changed, "yes");
}

Make sure your program is using a correct program ID in the derive_id!(...) macro and inside Anchor.toml. If not, obtain the public key of a key pair you're using and replace it in these two places. To get the program ID of a key pair (key pair's public key) the trdelnik key-pair command can be used. For example

$ trdelnik key-pair program 7

will print information about the key pair received from program_keypair(7).

Instructions with custom structures

• If you want to test an instruction which has custom structure as an argument

pub struct MyStruct {
  amount: u64,
}

// ...

pub fn my_instruction(ctx: Context<Ctx>, data: MyStruct) { /* ... */ }

• You should add an import to the .program_client crate

// .program_client/src/lib.rs

// DO NOT EDIT - automatically generated file
pub mod my_program_instruction {
  use trdelnik_client::*;
  use my_program::MyStruct; // add this import

// ...
}

• This file is automatically generated but the use statements won't be regenerated

Skipping tests

• You can add the #[ignore] macro to skip the test.

#[trdelnik_test]
#[ignore]
async fn test() {}

Testing programs with associated token accounts

• Trdelnik does not export anchor-spl and spl-associated-token-account, so you have to add it manually.

# <my-project>/trdelnik-tests/Cargo.toml
# import the correct versions manually
anchor-spl = "0.24.2"
spl-associated-token-account = "1.0.3"

// <my-project>/trdelnik-tests/tests/test.rs
use anchor_spl::token::Token;
use spl_associated_token_account;

async fn init_fixture() -> Fixture {
  // ...
  let account = keypair(1);
  let mint = keypair(2);
  // constructs a token mint
  client
    .create_token_mint(&mint, mint.pubkey(), None, 0)
    .await?;
  // constructs associated token account
  let token_account = client
    .create_associated_token_account(&account, mint.pubkey())
    .await?;
  let associated_token_program = spl_associated_token_account::id();
  // derives the associated token account address for the given wallet and mint
  let associated_token_address = spl_associated_token_account::get_associated_token_address(&account.pubkey(), mint);
  Fixture {
    // ...
    token_program: Token::id(),
  }
}

• The trdelnik init command generated a dummy test suite for you.
• For more details, see the complete test implementation.

Supported versions

• We support Anchor and Solana versions specified in the table below.

• We are exploring a new versions of Anchor, please make sure you only use the supported versions. We are working on it :muscle:

Configuration

The configuration variables can be edited in the Trdelnik.toml file that'll be generated in the root of the project.
