OpenZeppelin Test Helpers

NPM Package Build Status

JavaScript testing helpers for Ethereum smart contract development. These use web3 1.2 under the hood, but include support for truffle-contract objects. Chai bn.js assertions using chai-bn are also included.

Installation

npm install --save-dev openzeppelin-test-helpers chai

Usage

// Import all required modules from openzeppelin-test-helpers
const { BN, constants, expectEvent, expectRevert } = require('openzeppelin-test-helpers');
 
// Import preferred chai flavor: both expect and should are supported
const { expect } = require('chai');
 
const ERC20 = artifacts.require('ERC20');
 
contract('ERC20', ([sender, receiver]) => {
  beforeEach(async function () {
    this.erc20 = await ERC20.new();
    this.value = new BN(1); // The bundled BN library is the same one truffle and web3 use under the hood
  });
 
  it('reverts when transferring tokens to the zero address', async function () {
    // Edge cases that trigger a require statement can be tested for
    await expectRevert(
      this.erc20.transfer(constants.ZERO_ADDRESS, this.value, { from: sender }), 'ERC20: transfer to the zero address'
    );
  });
 
  it('emits a Transfer event on successful transfers', async function () {
    const receipt = this.erc20.transfer(receiver, this.value, { from: sender });
    // Log-checking will not only look at the event name, but also the values, which can be addresses, strings, numbers, etc.
    expectEvent(receipt, 'Transfer', { from: sender, to: receiver, value: this.value });
  });
 
  it('updates balances on successful transfers', async function () {
    this.erc20.transfer(receiver, this.value, { from: sender });
    // chai-bn is installed, which means BN values can be tested and compared using the bignumber property in chai
    expect(await this.token.balanceOf(receiver)).to.be.bignumber.equal(this.value);
  });
});

Configuration

This library features support for both web3 and truffle contract instances. The default environment is 'web3', unless a 'truffle' environment is automatically detected. In a 'truffle' environment, the web3 provider will be pulled from truffle's global web3 instance, otherwise, it defaults to http://localhost:8545.

While automatic detection should cover most use cases, both the environment and provider can be manually supplied:

require('openzeppelin-test-helpers/configure')({ environment: 'web3', provider: 'http://localhost:8080' });
 
const { expectEvent } = require('openzeppelin-test-helpers');

truffle migrations

Automatic environment detection does not work inside truffle migrations, so the helpers must be manually configured.

require('openzeppelin-test-helpers/configure')({ environment: 'truffle', provider: web3.currentProvider });

Reference

This documentation is a work in progress: if in doubt, head over to the tests directory to see examples of how each helper can be used.

All returned numbers are of type BN.


balance

Helpers to inspect Ether balances of a specific account.

All of these functions return BN instances, with balances in 'wei' by default.

balance current

async balance.current(account, unit = 'wei')

Returns the current balance of an account.

const balance = await balance.current(account)
// same as new BN(web3.eth.getBalance(account))
 
const balanceEth = await balance.current(account, 'ether')
// same as new BN(web3.utils.fromWei(await web3.eth.getBalance(account), 'ether'))

balance tracker

Allows you to keep track of the changes in an account's Ether balance.

async balance.tracker(account, unit = 'wei')

Creates an instance of a balance tracker.

const tracker = await balance.tracker(account)
async tracker.get(unit = tracker.unit)

Returns the current balance of an account.

const tracker = await balance.tracker(account) // instantiation
const currentBalance = await tracker.get() // returns the current balance of account
async tracker.delta(unit = tracker.unit)

Returns the change in the balance since the last time it was checked (with either get() or delta()).

const tracker = await balance.tracker(receiver, 'ether')
send.ether(sender, receiver, ether('10'))
(await tracker.delta()).should.be.bignumber.equal('10');
(await tracker.delta()).should.be.bignumber.equal('0');

Or using get():

const tracker = await balance.tracker(account) // instantiation
const currentBalance = await tracker.get() // returns the current balance of account
(await tracker.delta()).should.be.bignumber.equal('0');

A tracker can also return all balances and deltas in a specific unit:

const tracker = await balance.tracker(account, 'gwei');
const balanceGwei = tracker.get(); // in gigawei
const balanceEther = tracker.get('ether'); // in ether

BN

A bn.js object. Use new BN(number) to create BN instances.


constants

A collection of useful constants.

constants.ZERO_ADDRESS

The initial value of a type address variable, i.e., address(0) in Solidity.

constants.MAX_UINT256

The maximum unsigned integer 2^256 - 1 represented in BN.

constants.MAX_INT256

The maximum signed integer 2^255 - 1 represented in BN.

constants.MIN_INT256

The minimum signed integer -2^255 represented in BN.


ether

Converts a value in Ether to wei.


expectEvent (receipt, eventName, eventArgs = {})

Asserts the logs in receipt contain an entry for an event with name eventName, for which all entries in eventArgs match. receipt is the object returned by either a web3 Contract or a truffle-contract call.

const web3Receipt = await MyWeb3Contract.methods.foo('bar').send();
expectEvent(web3Receipt, 'Foo', { value: 'bar' });
 
const truffleReceipt = await MyTruffleContract.foo('bar');
expectEvent(truffleReceipt, 'Foo', { value: 'bar' });

async inTransaction (txHash, emitter, eventName, eventArgs = {})

Same as expectEvent, but for events emitted in an arbitrary transaction (of hash txHash), by an arbitrary contract (emitter, the contract instance), even if it was indirectly called (i.e. if it was called by another smart contract and not an externally owned account).

// With web3 contracts
const contract = await MyContract.deploy().send();
const { transactionHash } = await contract.methods.foo('bar').send();
await expectEvent.inTransaction(transactionHash, contract, 'Foo', { value: 'bar' });
 
// With truffle contracts
const contract = await MyContract.new();
const { txHash } = await contract.foo('bar');
await expectEvent.inTransaction(txHash, contract, 'Foo', { value: 'bar' });

async function inConstruction (emitter, eventName, eventArgs = {})

Same as inTransaction, but for events emitted during the construction of emitter. Note that this is currently only supported for truffle contracts.


expectRevert

Collection of assertions for transaction errors (similar to chai's throw).

async expectRevert (promise, message)

This helper asserts that promise was rejected due to a reverted transaction, and it will check that the revert reason includes message. Use expectRevert.unspecified when the revert reason is unknown. For example:

contract Owned {
    address private _owner;
 
    constructor () {
        _owner = msg.sender;
    }
 
    function doOwnerOperation() public view {
        require(msg.sender == _owner, "Unauthorized");
        ....
    }
}

Can be tested as follows:

const { expectRevert } = require('openzeppelin-test-helpers');
 
const Owned = artifacts.require('Owned');
 
contract('Owned', ([owner, other]) => {
  beforeEach(async function () {
    this.owned = Owned.new();
  });
 
  describe('doOwnerOperation', function() {
    it('Fails when called by a non-owner account', async function () {
      await expectRevert(this.owned.doOwnerOperation({ from: other }), "Unauthorized");
    });
  });
  ...

async expectRevert.unspecified (promise)

This helper asserts that promise was rejected due to a reverted transaction caused by a require or revert statement.

async expectRevert.assertion (promise)

This helper asserts that promise was rejected due to a reverted transaction caused by an assert statement or an invalid opcode.

async expectRevert.outOfGas (promise)

This helper asserts that promise was rejected due to a transaction running out of gas.


makeInterfaceId

ERC165 (interfaces = [])

Calculates the ERC165 interface ID of a contract, given a series of function signatures.

ERC1820 (name)

Calculates the ERC1820 interface hash of a contract, given its name.


send

async send.ether (from, to, value)

Sends value Ether from from to to.

async function send.transaction (target, name, argsTypes, argsValues, opts = {})

Sends a transaction to contract target, calling method name with argValues, which are of type argTypes (as per the method's signature).


singletons

async singletons.ERC1820Registry (funder)

Returns an instance of an ERC1820Registry deployed as per the specification (i.e. the registry is located at the canonical address). This can be called multiple times to retrieve the same instance.


time

async time.advanceBlock ()

Forces a block to be mined, incrementing the block height.

async time.latest ()

Returns the timestamp of the latest mined block. Should be coupled with advanceBlock to retrieve the current blockchain time.

async time.latestBlock ()

Returns the latest mined block number.

async time.increase (duration)

Increases the time of the blockchain by duration (in seconds), and mines a new block with that timestamp.

async time.increaseTo (target)

Same as increase, but a target time is specified instead of a duration.

time.duration

Helpers to convert different time units to seconds. Available helpers are: seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks and years.

await time.increase(time.duration.years(2));
