Writing Automated Smart Contracts
Writing Automated Smart Contracts - Flow Card Image

In a blockchain environment, a single mistake could cost all of your funds or your users' funds. The guide covers setting up a testing environment, writing unit tests, and performing complex assertions using tools like Truffle and Hardhat.

Steps:
1. Setting Up a Testing Environment:
- Use local blockchains for fast, cost-effective testing.
- Avoid using the actual Ethereum network or slow testnets.

2. Writing Unit Tests:
- Utilize Chai assertions for testing.
- Structure tests to mirror the contracts directory.
- Example: Testing the Box contract for storing and retrieving values.

3. Performing Complex Assertions:
- Use OpenZeppelin Test Helpers for advanced test scenarios.
- Test for event emissions, transaction reverts, and balance changes.
- Example: Testing the Ownable Box contract for ownership and event emissions.

4. Deploying and Interacting with Smart Contracts:
- Set up a local blockchain with Hardhat.
- Write and execute deployment scripts.
- Interact with contracts via the console and programmatically using JavaScript.
