Test instructions (for developers):

Work in your jmvenv virtual environment as for all Joinmarket work. Make sure to have bitcoind 0.18 or newer installed. Also need miniircd installed to the root (i.e. in your joinmarket-clientserver directory):

(jmvenv)$ cd /path/to/joinmarket-clientserver
(jmvenv)$ git clone https://github.com/Joinmarket-Org/miniircd

Install the test requirements:

(jmvenv)$ pip install .[test]

Running the test suite.

Have a bitcoin.conf ready in some location, whose contents only need to be:

rpcuser=bitcoinrpc
rpcpassword=123456abcdef
fallbackfee=0.0002

(any random password is fine of course). It is also advisable to wipe ~/.bitcoin/regtest first, in case it gets large and slow to process.

Then copy the regtest_joinmarket.cfg file from the test/ directory to the joinmarket-clientserver/ directory and rename it to joinmarket.cfg; you probably won't need to change anything in the file except perhaps the above password, and the native setting if you're doing bech32 wallet tests.

Run the test suite via pytest:

(jmvenv)$ pytest --btcconf=/path/to/bitcoin.conf --btcroot=/path/to/bitcoin/bin/ --btcpwd=123456abcdef --nirc=2 -p no:warnings

Running tests of sendpayment and tumbler (including with malicious makers)

The file test/ygrunner.py provides the ability to spin up a set of yieldgenerator bots against the local IRC instance with the local regtest blockchain. It can be started with

(jmvenv)$ pytest --btcconf=/path/to/bitcoin.conf --btcroot=/path/to/bitcoin/bin/ --btcpwd=123456abcdef --nirc=2 test/ygrunner.py -s

Here the -s flag is necessary because it prints log output to the console. If you keep the logging level at the default INFO only a minimum amount will come out, if you want more then enter this into the joinmarket.cfg in the joinmarket-clientserver/ directory:

[LOGGING]
console_log_level = DEBUG

It will print out a hex seed for a wallet you can use for tumble/sendpayment (just set the walletname to that hex value). Next, go into the scripts/ directory and make sure you have copied the joinmarket.cfg (from test/regtest_joinmarket.cfg, as above) file into that directory also, make any changes needed (like the LOGGING one above), and run either sendpayment or tumbler with whatever parameters you choose, BUT: remember to add the --datadir=. argument so that your test joinmarket.cfg file gets picked up, not the one in ~/.joinmarket.

So for example:

(jmvenv)$ python sendpayment.py -N2 -m1 5c88acf2546bd7b083b9cfb2e0af7f2d --datadir=. 30000000 2Address

To change the parameters of the yieldgenerators you can edit the parametrization of the function test_start_ygs in this file.

There are two changes that may be of special interest:

  • to change the number of yg bots from e.g. 3 to 4, edit the first number in the parameter list entry to 3 and the third entry to 4 (4 means three ygs plus one taker bot).

  • More advanced case: To make the yg bots selectively (randomly) malicious, edit the last entry from 0 to some non-zero integer representing a percentage chance of rejection, both at the receive-auth stage and the receive-tx stage. So if you set this to 20, it means there will be a 20% chance of each yg bot rejecting the auth message and the tx message (both 20%). If you are running tumbler in adversarial conditions like that, consider changing things like the taker_utxo_retries or adding external commitments with the add-utxo tool so external commitments usage can be tested.

Testing Joinmarket-Qt with regtest

You can follow the process above using test/ygrunner.py to set up the environment, and then just run:

(jmvenv)$ python joinmarket-qt.py --datadir=.

When loading a wallet here, regtest will be detected and will request a hex seed as described above.

The 'generate' and 'recover' functions will not work like this on regtest, but you can generate a file-based wallet on regtest from the command line, and then load it with a one line hack to the joinmarket-qt.py file (I'll let you work that out, if you got this far :) ). You can also do full tumbler tests, on regtest, using the GUI, using this setup. Spin up ygrunner.py as described above, then start the tumbler wizard in the 'CoinJoin' tab, and the multi- subtab, and choose Generate Tumbler Schedule. There are 3 default destination addresses provided although you may want to change them, depending on the test.
