Ethereum Waffle

The most advanced framework for testing smart contracts.

Sweeter, simpler and faster.

Links

Philosophy

  • Simpler: Minimalistic, few dependencies.
  • Sweeter: Nice syntax, easy to extend.
  • Faster: Strong focus on the speed of test execution.

Features:

  • Sweet set of chai matchers, e.g.:
    • expect(...).to.be.revertedWith('Error message')
    • expect(...).to.emit(contract, 'EventName').withArgs(...))
  • Importing contracts from npm modules working out of the box, e.g.:
    • import "openzeppelin-solidity/contracts/token/ERC20/ERC20.sol";
  • Fixtures that help write fast and maintainable test suites, e.g.:
    • const {token} = await loadFixture(standardTokenWithBalance);
  • Customizable compilation options with native solc, dockerized solc and any version of solc-js loaded remotely at compiled time
  • Mocking smart contracts, e.g.:
    • const mockToken = await deployMockContract(wallet, IERC20.abi);
  • Support for promise-based configuration, e.g.:
    • use native solc binary for fast compilation in CI environment
    • use solc-js based on contract versions detected (async)
  • Support for TypeScript
  • Type-safe contract deployment and interactions with TypeChain

Documentation

Installation:

To get started install ethereum-waffle with yarn:

yarn add --dev ethereum-waffle

Or if you prefer using npm:

npm install --save-dev ethereum-waffle

Step by step guide

Add external dependency:

To add an external library install it using npm:

npm install @openzeppelin/contracts -D

or with yarn:

yarn add @openzeppelin/contracts -D

Note

Find this example in examples/basic and use it.

Example contract

Below is an example contract written in Solidity. Place it in contracts/BasicToken.sol file of your project:

pragma solidity ^0.6.0;

import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/ERC20.sol";

// Example class - a mock class using delivering from ERC20
contract BasicToken is ERC20 {
    constructor(uint256 initialBalance) ERC20("Basic", "BSC") public {
        _mint(msg.sender, initialBalance);
    }
}

Example test

Below is an example test written for the contract above compiled with Waffle. Place it under test/BasicToken.test.ts file in your project directory:

import {expect, use} from 'chai';
import {Contract} from 'ethers';
import {deployContract, MockProvider, solidity} from 'ethereum-waffle';
import BasicToken from '../build/BasicToken.json';

use(solidity);

describe('BasicToken', () => {
  const [wallet, walletTo] = new MockProvider().getWallets();
  let token: Contract;

  beforeEach(async () => {
    token = await deployContract(wallet, BasicToken, [1000]);
  });

  it('Assigns initial balance', async () => {
    expect(await token.balanceOf(wallet.address)).to.equal(1000);
  });

  it('Transfer adds amount to destination account', async () => {
    await token.transfer(walletTo.address, 7);
    expect(await token.balanceOf(walletTo.address)).to.equal(7);
  });

  it('Transfer emits event', async () => {
    await expect(token.transfer(walletTo.address, 7))
      .to.emit(token, 'Transfer')
      .withArgs(wallet.address, walletTo.address, 7);
  });

  it('Can not transfer above the amount', async () => {
    await expect(token.transfer(walletTo.address, 1007)).to.be.reverted;
  });

  it('Can not transfer from empty account', async () => {
    const tokenFromOtherWallet = token.connect(walletTo);
    await expect(tokenFromOtherWallet.transfer(wallet.address, 1))
      .to.be.reverted;
  });

  it('Calls totalSupply on BasicToken contract', async () => {
    await token.totalSupply();
    expect('totalSupply').to.be.calledOnContract(token);
  });

  it('Calls balanceOf with sender address on BasicToken contract', async () => {
    await token.balanceOf(wallet.address);
    expect('balanceOf').to.be.calledOnContractWith(token, [wallet.address]);
  });
});

Note: You will also need to install the following dependencies to run the example above:

yarn add mocha -D
yarn add chai -D

Or with npm:

npm i chai -D
npm i mocha -D

Compiling

To compile your smart contracts run:

npx waffle

To compile using a custom configuration file run:

npx waffle config.json

Example configuration file looks like this (all fields optional):

{
  "sourceDirectory": "./custom_contracts",
  "outputDirectory": "./custom_build",
  "nodeModulesDirectory": "./custom_node_modules"
}

To enable generation of typechain artifacts:

{
  "typechainEnabled": true
}

Flattener

To flat your smart contracts run:

npx waffle flatten

In configuration file you can add optional field with path to flatten files:

{
  "flattenOutputDirectory": "./custom_flatten"
}

Running tests

To run the tests run the following command:

npx mocha

Adding an npm script

For convenience, you can add the following to your package.json:

{
  ...,
  "scripts": {
    "test": "waffle && mocha"
  }
}

Now you can build and test your contracts with one command:

npm test

Contributing

Contributions are always welcome, no matter how large or small. Before contributing, please read the code of conduct and contribution policy.

Before you issue pull request:

Make sure all tests and linters pass. Make sure you have test coverage for any new features.

Running tests

Note: To make end-to-end test pass, you need to:

  • have Docker installed, up and running
  • have Ethereum stable docker image pulled, if not run docker pull ethereum/solc:stable
  • have native solidity 0.5.* installed

To run tests type:

yarn test

To run linter type:

yarn lint

Building documentation

Install Sphinx to build documentation:

cd docs
make html

Before building documentation for the first time you may have to install required python packages:

pip3 install -r docs/requirements.txt
