Test

This module contains tests for all services provided by AElf. You can see how to properly use services provided by AElf here.

You need to firstly set necessary parameters to make sure tests can run successfully.

1. Set baseUrl to your target url.

   $url = "Http://127.0.0.1:8001";

2. Give a valid privateKey of a node.

   $this->privateKey = 'be3abe5c1439899ac2efd0001e15715fd989a3ae11f09e1cb95d320cd4993e2a';

Note

You need to run a local or remote AElf node to run the unit test successfully. If you're not familiar with how to run a node or multiple nodes, please see Running a node / Running multiple nodes for more information.
