In order to prevent them from synchronizing with each other they are set with `-dial=false` and `-maxpeer 1` options. They log into `/tmp/eth.test/nodes/XX` where XX is the last two digits of their port. - -Chains to import can be bootstrapped by letting nodes mine for some time. This is done with - - . bootstrap.sh - -Only the relative timing and forks matter so they should work if the bootstrap script is rerun. -The reference blockchain of tests are soft links to these import chains and check at the end of a test run. - -Connecting to peers and exporting blockchain is scripted with JS files executed by the JSRE, see `tests/XX.sh`. - -Each test is set with a timeout. This may vary on different computers so adjust sensibly. -If you kill a test before it completes, do not forget to kill all the background processes, since they will impact the result.
