- test groups are now separate classes in separate modules
- test data and code is loaded on an as-needed basis
- new TestSuiteRunner and CmdGroupMgr classes
- simplified invocation: if arguments are omitted, all default tests relevant
for given network and option are run. The following set of invocations
provides nearly complete coverage of MMGen's core functionality:
test/test.py
test/test.py --segwit-random
test/test.py --bech32
test/test.py --coin=ltc
test/test.py --coin=ltc --segwit-random
test/test.py --coin=ltc --bech32
test/test.py --coin=bch
test/test.py --coin=eth
test/test.py --coin=etc
- group tool commands into classes
- add docstrings to command classes and methods
- annotate command method args
- generate call signatures + help and usage screens on the fly
- API changes:
- listaddresses,twview: new 'age_fmt' option replaces 'show_days' and 'show_age'
- addrfile_chksum and friends: 'mmtype' option removed
- tooltest.py, tooltest2.py and test.py have been updated accordingly
- 2 modes of operation:
- test tool commands by spawning the executable 'mmgen-tool'
- test tool commands directly, by importing 'mmgen.tool'
- all test vectors are contained in the script
- no dependency chains or IPC via the filesystem
When the Python 3 port has received sufficient testing, it will be merged into
the master branch. From then on, MMGen will no longer support Python 2.
Users who wish to run current MMGen versions should upgrade their systems with
Python 3 versions of the prerequisite libraries listed on the
Install-MMGen-on-Debian-or-Ubuntu-Linux wiki page.
