+"""Test logic for setting nMinimumChainWork on command line.
+
+Nodes don't consider themselves out of "initial block download" until
+their active chain has more work than nMinimumChainWork.
+
+Nodes don't download blocks from a peer unless the peer's best known block
+has more work than nMinimumChainWork.
+
+While in initial block download, nodes won't relay blocks to their peers, so
+test that this parameter functions as intended by verifying that block relay
+only succeeds past a given node once its nMinimumChainWork has been exceeded.
