Also included are minor edits to util.py to create a clean blockchain and add a parameter to gather_inputs to specify number of confirmations.
|
|
Use setmocktime to create the initial block chain with
10-minute-apart-blocks starting 1 Jan 2014.
|
|
Replace "dir" with "dirname" in util.py in qa/rpc-tests/ because "dir"
is the name of a function in python.
|
|
"amount" and "fee" do not exist (anymore?).
|
|
the environment
This will allow for windows tests to run with bitcoind.exe and bitcoin-cli.exe

214091d Update license in pull-tester and rpc-tests (Michael Ford)

Remove more files from the cached, 200-block-chain data directories.

Add missing copyright/license header where necessary

Set -discover=0 in regtest framework
|
|
The regtest framework is local, so often there is no need to
discover our external IP. Setting -discover=0 in util.py works
around shutdown hang caused by GetExternalIP waiting in recv().
|

|
|
This avoids a race condition in which the connection was
made but the version handshake is not completed yet. In that
case transactions won't be broadcasted to a peer yet, and
the nodes will wait forever for their mempools to sync.

New RPC methods: return an estimate of the fee (or priority) a
transaction needs to be likely to confirm in a given number of
blocks.
Mike Hearn created the first version of this method for estimating fees.
It works as follows:
For transactions that took 1 to N (I picked N=25) blocks to confirm,
keep N buckets with at most 100 entries in each recording the
fees-per-kilobyte paid by those transactions.
(separate buckets are kept for transactions that confirmed because
they are high-priority)
The buckets are filled as blocks are found, and are saved/restored
in a new fee_estiamtes.dat file in the data directory.
A few variations on Mike's initial scheme:
To estimate the fee needed for a transaction to confirm in X buckets,
all of the samples in all of the buckets are used and a median of
all of the data is used to make the estimate. For example, imagine
25 buckets each containing the full 100 entries. Those 2,500 samples
are sorted, and the estimate of the fee needed to confirm in the very
next block is the 50'th-highest-fee-entry in that sorted list; the
estimate of the fee needed to confirm in the next two blocks is the
150'th-highest-fee-entry, etc.
That algorithm has the nice property that estimates of how much fee
you need to pay to get confirmed in block N will always be greater
than or equal to the estimate for block N+1. It would clearly be wrong
to say "pay 11 uBTC and you'll get confirmed in 3 blocks, but pay
12 uBTC and it will take LONGER".
A single block will not contribute more than 10 entries to any one
bucket, so a single miner and a large block cannot overwhelm
the estimates.

Choose ports at startup based on PID, so multiple regression tests
can run on the same system at the same time.
|
|
Add a new test, `rpcbind_test.py`, that extensively tests the new
`-rpcbind` functionality.
|
|
This should show how to run a python-based regression test
successfully in the pull-tester environment.
|
|
Taught bitcoind to close the HTTP connection after it gets a 'stop' command,
to make it easier for the regression tests to cleanly stop.
Move bitcoinrpc files to correct location.
Tidied up the python-based regression tests.

- Add license headers to source files (years based on commit dates)
in `src/test` as well as `qa`
- Add `README.md` to `src/test/data` specifying MIT license
Fixes #3848
