Jepsen tests for the Tendermint distributed consensus system.
- Clone this repo
- Install JDK8 or higher
- Install Leiningen
- Optional: install gnuplot
- In the tendermint repository, run
lein run test
To build a fat JAR file that you can run independently of leiningen, run lein uberjar.
lein run serve runs a web server for browsing test results.
lein run test runs a test. Use lein run test --help to see options: you'll
likely want to set --node some.hostname ... or --nodes-file some_file, and
adjust --username as desired.
For instance, to test a shifting cluster membership, with two clients per node, for 3000 seconds, over a group of compare-and-set registers, you'd run
lein run test --nemesis changing-validators --concurrency 2n --time-limit 3000 --workload cas-register
Or to show that a duplicated validator with just shy of 2/3 of the vote can split the blockchain during a partition, leading to the loss of acknowledged writes:
lein run test --node n1 --node n2 --node n3 --node n4 --node n5 --node n6 --node n7 --dup-validators --super-byzantine-validators --nemesis split-dup-validators --workload set --concurrency 5n --test-count 15 --time-limit 30
