+"""Test mempool persistence.
+
+By default, bitcoind will dump mempool on shutdown and
+then reload it on startup. This can be overridden with
+the -persistmempool=0 command line option.
+
+Test is as follows:
+
+ - start node0, node1 and node2. node1 has -persistmempool=0
+ - create 5 transactions on node2 to its own address. Note that these
+ are not sent to node0 or node1 addresses because we don't want
+ them to be saved in the wallet.
+ - check that node0 and node1 have 5 transactions in their mempools
+ - shutdown all nodes.
+ - startup node0. Verify that it still has 5 transactions
+ in its mempool. Shutdown node0. This tests that by default the
+ mempool is persistent.
+ - startup node1. Verify that its mempool is empty. Shutdown node1.
+ This tests that with -persistmempool=0, the mempool is not
+ dumped to disk when the node is shut down.
+ - Restart node0 with -persistmempool=0. Verify that its mempool is
+ empty. Shutdown node0. This tests that with -persistmempool=0,
+ the mempool is not loaded from disk on start up.
+ - Restart node0 with -persistmempool. Verify that it has 5
+ transactions in its mempool. This tests that -persistmempool=0
+ does not overwrite a previously valid mempool stored on disk.
