kvstore-test

This crate allows the developers to do integration testing against a Tendermint Go endpoint. Our CI also uses it.

To run the tests locally, provided that a kvstore RPC endpoint is running on http://127.0.0.1:26657:

cargo test

Alternatively, you can run:

cargo test-all-features

which is exactly what we run in CI.

If you don't have an endpoint running, but you have Docker installed, you can ask the testing framework to fire up a Docker container with the current stable Tendermint node. This happens automatically if you run:

cargo make

and all tests will run while the docker container is available. As additional help, you can run

cargo make docker-up

and

cargo make docker-down

to manage the Docker container.
