/*
Package mock provides functions for creating applications for testing.
This module also features randomized testing, so that various modules can test
that their operations are interoperable.
The intended method of using this randomized testing framework is that every
module provides TestAndRunTx methods for each of its desired methods of fuzzing
its own txs, and it also provides the invariants that it assumes to be true.
You then pick and choose from these tx types and invariants. To pick and choose
these, you first build a mock app with the correct keepers. Then you call the
app.RandomizedTesting method with the set of desired txs, invariants, along
with the setups each module requires.
Package mock provides utility methods to ease writing tests.

/*
Package simulation implements a simulation framework for any state machine
built on the SDK which utilizes auth.
It is primarily intended for fuzz testing the integration of modules.
It will test that the provided operations are interoperable,
and that the desired invariants hold.
It can additionally be used to detect what the performance benchmarks in the
system are, by using benchmarking mode and cpu / mem profiling.
If it detects a failure, it provides the entire log of what was ran,
The simulator takes as input: a random seed, the set of operations to run,
the invariants to test, and additional parameters to configure how long to run,
and misc. parameters that affect simulation speed.
It is intended that every module provides a list of Operations which will randomly
create and run a message / tx in a manner that is interesting to fuzz, and verify that
the state transition was executed as expected.
Each module should additionally provide methods to assert that the desired invariants hold.
Then to perform a randomized simulation, select the set of desired operations,
the weightings for each, the invariants you want to test, and how long to run it for.
Then run simulation.Simulate!
The simulator will handle things like ensuring that validators periodically double signing,
or go offline.
