b902bd66b0f35c5016dc5d7aaf501940935edd62 test: check custom descendant limit in mempool_packages.py (Sebastian Falbesoner) Pull request description: This is a follow-up PR to #17435, testing the custom descendant limit, passed by the argument `-limitdescendantcount`. ~~It was more tricky than expected, mainly because we don't know for sure at which point node1 has got all the transactions broadcasted from node0 (for the ancestor test this wasn't a problem since the txs were immediately available through `invalidateblock`) -- a simple `sync_mempools()` doesn't work here since the mempool contents are not equal due to different ancestor/descendant limits. Hence I came up with a "hacky manual sync":~~ 1. ~~wait until the mempool has the _expected_ tx count (see conditions below)~~ 2. ~~after that, wait some time and get sure that the mempool contents haven't changed in-between~~ ~~Like for~~ Similar to the ancestor test, we overall check for ~~three~~ four conditions: - the # of txs in the node1 mempool is equal to the descendant limit (plus 1 for the parent tx, plus the # txs from the previous ancestor test which are still in) ~~(done by the hacky sync above)~~ - all txs in node1 mempool are a subset of txs in node0 mempool - part of the constructed descendant-chain (the first ones up to the limit) are contained in node1 mempool - the remaining part of the constructed descendant-chain (all after the first ones up to the limit) is *not* contained in node1 mempool ACKs for top commit: JeremyRubin: Excellent. utACK b902bd6 Tree-SHA512: 7de96dd248f16ab740e178ac5b64b57ead18cdcf74adfe989709d215e4a67b6b6d20de22c48e885d5f2edc55caaddd44a4261e996c5c87687ceb6a47f1d1fdaf
Bitcoin Core integration/staging tree
What is Bitcoin?
Bitcoin is an experimental digital currency that enables instant payments to anyone, anywhere in the world. Bitcoin uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money are carried out collectively by the network. Bitcoin Core is the name of open source software which enables the use of this currency.
For more information, as well as an immediately usable, binary version of the Bitcoin Core software, see https://bitcoincore.org/en/download/, or read the original whitepaper.
License
Bitcoin Core is released under the terms of the MIT license. See COPYING for more information or see https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT.
Development Process
The master branch is regularly built and tested, but is not guaranteed to be
completely stable. Tags are created
regularly to indicate new official, stable release versions of Bitcoin Core.
The contribution workflow is described in CONTRIBUTING.md and useful hints for developers can be found in doc/developer-notes.md.
Testing
Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull requests than we can review and test on short notice. Please be patient and help out by testing other people's pull requests, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people lots of money.
Automated Testing
Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code, and to
submit new unit tests for old code. Unit tests can be compiled and run
(assuming they weren't disabled in configure) with: make check. Further details on running
and extending unit tests can be found in /src/test/README.md.
There are also regression and integration tests, written
in Python, that are run automatically on the build server.
These tests can be run (if the test dependencies are installed) with: test/functional/test_runner.py
The Travis CI system makes sure that every pull request is built for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and that unit/sanity tests are run automatically.
Manual Quality Assurance (QA) Testing
Changes should be tested by somebody other than the developer who wrote the code. This is especially important for large or high-risk changes. It is useful to add a test plan to the pull request description if testing the changes is not straightforward.
Translations
Changes to translations as well as new translations can be submitted to Bitcoin Core's Transifex page.
Translations are periodically pulled from Transifex and merged into the git repository. See the translation process for details on how this works.
Important: We do not accept translation changes as GitHub pull requests because the next pull from Transifex would automatically overwrite them again.
Translators should also subscribe to the mailing list.
