You might want to set this variable globally on your system like: - -| ``nano /etc/environment`` -| ``ETHEREUM_TEST_PATH="/home/user/ethereum/tests"`` -| - -Filler files are test templates which are used to fill initial parameters defined at test specification :ref:`ethereum_tests` and then create a complete test ``.json`` file. You might find filler files very useful when creating your own tests. - -The ``--checkstate`` option adds a BOOST error if the post state of filled test differs from its ``expected`` section. - -To specify a concrete test in a TEST_CASE file for filling/running procedure use ``--singletest`` option: - - ``./testeth -t <TEST_SUITE>/<TEST_CASE> --singletest <TEST_NAME>`` - -If you want to debug (note: testeth should be build with VMTRACE=1) a single test within a result test ``.json`` file, you might use the following command: - -| ``./testeth --log_level=test_suite --run_test=<TEST_SUITE>/<TEST_CASE> --singletest <TEST_FILE>.json`` -| ``<TEST_NAME> --vmtrace --verbosity 12`` -| or -| ``./testeth -t <TEST_SUITE>/<TEST_CASE> --singletest <TEST_NAME> --vmtrace --verbosity 12`` -| - -Some tests may use excessive resources when running, so by default they are disabled. Such tests require specific flag to be set in order to be executed. Like ``--performance``, ``--inputLimits``, ``--memory``, ``--quadratic``. You may also enable all of the tests by setting ``--all`` flag. Be careful. Enabled memory tests may stress your system to use 4GB of RAM and more. - -That's it for test execution.
