Zombienet tests

The content of this directory is meant to be used by Parity's private CI/CD infrastructure with private tools. At the moment those tools are still early stage of development and we don't know if / when they will available for public use.

Contents of this directory

parachains At the moment this directory only have one test related to parachains: /parachains-smoke-test, that check the parachain registration and the block height.

Running tests locally

To run any test locally use the native provider (zombienet test -p native ...) you need first build the binaries. They are:

• adder-collator -> polkadot/target/testnet/adder-collator
• malus -> polkadot/target/testnet/malus
• polkadot -> polkadot/target/testnet/polkadot, polkadot/target/testnet/polkadot-prepare-worker, polkadot/target/testnet/polkadot-execute-worker
• polkadot-collator -> cumulus/target/release/polkadot-parachain
• undying-collator -> polkadot/target/testnet/undying-collator

To build them use:

• adder-collator -> cargo build --profile testnet -p test-parachain-adder-collator
• undying-collator -> cargo build --profile testnet -p test-parachain-undying-collator
• malus -> cargo build --profile testnet -p polkadot-test-malus
• polkadot (in the Polkadot repo) and polkadot-collator (in Cumulus repo) -> cargo build --profile testnet

One solution is to use the .set_env file (from this directory) and fill the CUSTOM_PATHS before source it to patch the PATH of your system to find the binaries you just built.

E.g.:

$ cat .set_env
(...)
# by the order of this array
CUSTOM_PATHS=(
  "~/polkadot/target/release"
  "~/polkadot/target/testnet"
  "~/cumulus/target/release"
)
(...)

source .set_env

Then you have your PATH customized and ready to run zombienet. NOTE: You should need to do this ones per terminal session, since we are patching the PATH and re-exporting. Or you can also source this file in your .bashrc file to get executed automatically in each new session.

Example:

You can run a test locally by executing:

zombienet test -p native 0001-parachains-pvf.zndsl
