Felix Lange	225de7ca0a	tests: update tests and implement general state tests (#14734) ... Tests are now included as a submodule. This should make updating easier and removes ~60MB of JSON data from the working copy. State tests are replaced by General State Tests, which run the same test with multiple fork configurations. With the new test runner, consensus tests are run as subtests by walking json files. Many hex issues have been fixed upstream since the last update and most custom parsing code is replaced by existing JSON hex types. Tests can now be marked as 'expected failures', ensuring that fixes for those tests will trigger an update to test configuration. The new test runner also supports parallel execution and the -short flag.	7 years ago

Felix Lange	37dd9086ec	core: refactor genesis handling ... This commit solves several issues concerning the genesis block: * Genesis/ChainConfig loading was handled by cmd/geth code. This left library users in the cold. They could specify a JSON-encoded string and overwrite the config, but didn't get any of the additional checks performed by geth. * Decoding and writing of genesis JSON was conflated in WriteGenesisBlock. This made it a lot harder to embed the genesis block into the forthcoming config file loader. This commit changes things so there is a single Genesis type that represents genesis blocks. All uses of Write*Genesis* are changed to use the new type instead. * If the chain config supplied by the user was incompatible with the current chain (i.e. the chain had already advanced beyond a scheduled fork), it got overwritten. This is not an issue in practice because previous forks have always had the highest total difficulty. It might matter in the future though. The new code reverts the local chain to the point of the fork when upgrading configuration. The change to genesis block data removes compression library dependencies from package core.	8 years ago
