Detailed Description

Basic testing setup.

This just configures logging, data dir and chain parameters.

Member Function Documentation

SeedRandomForTest()

void BasicTestingSetup::SeedRandomForTest ( SeedRand  seed )

inline

Seed the global RNG state and m_rng for testing and log the seed value.

This affects all randomness, except GetStrongRandBytes().

Member Data Documentation

m_args

ArgsManager BasicTestingSetup::m_args

Test-specific arguments and settings.

This member is intended to be the primary source of settings for code being tested by unit tests. It exists to make tests more self-contained and reduce reliance on global state.

Usage guidelines:

1. Prefer using m_args where possible in test code.
2. If m_args is not accessible, use m_node.args as a fallback.
3. Avoid direct references to gArgs in test code.

Note: Currently, m_node.args points to gArgs for backwards compatibility. In the future, it will point to m_args to further isolate test environments.
