Notable changes =============== This hotfix remediates memory exhaustion vulnerabilities that zcashd inherited as a fork of bitcoind. These bugs could allow an attacker to use peer-to-peer messages to fill the memory of a node, resulting in a crash. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQGzBAABCgAdFiEEX8Nd8pnYcf0pobEL9FXpuSAjoYsFAmP1DKQACgkQ9FXpuSAj oYt2jQv+IurleLqEbtBW2ajDYDIkcMu+asEtHCk3B6GELykKaFMgHYTffFBmuyJ+ 5GdoX685Rn6r8BxK6K1u129A9ztY7K0JpVeDA75tN5WLBj9twLdNaODfCLg5EjlZ UtxTNnynQ0MX5Uv7pt1DAM+++OKYujUHypaajgZ9ttqpSHZl3Z2ye0/HFEc4023p VH13CvU/3R4JLkFENi49rbS49LFfVuQrhAQoOPlCf3xoWbUYIdmWWZa/HOJV3g0e 3mqC+rhz97GVylLI4LJrm3v0tLeEUIuu+fdAziWfuWrBlB4jQ5p4L5trDHiQoqWB 5Qt5tjJKHHLnHHSyLcFFaes12tjPfrn9PBxYDPyfFAHIGf0WEiy36+6G5P7jpjYj OXLAmBPBIRBgZf9LJIHrgvqQynfGe9vaWgCArWWgSC8wZ2hWlM7pZRhCe+uw35R1 e5AfZjvbXj6gR+1631Mhl84e6xkGXe24szzuZDrUCqLBJpTb1JNLRh1OtT8zDN0t MfKtnE3W =AXAQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'v5.4.2' into hotfix-v5.4.2 zcashd release 5.4.2 Notable changes =============== This hotfix remediates memory exhaustion vulnerabilities that zcashd inherited as a fork of bitcoind.

README.md
The pull-tester folder contains a script to call multiple tests from the rpc-tests folder.
Every pull request to the zcash repository is built and run through the regression test suite. You can also run all or only individual tests locally.
Test dependencies
Before running the tests, the following must be installed.
Unix
The python3-zmq library and simplejson are required. On Ubuntu or Debian they can be installed via:
sudo apt-get install python3-simplejson python3-zmq
OS X
pip3 install pyzmq simplejson
Running tests
You can run any single test by calling
RPC_TEST=<testname> make rpc-tests
Or you can run any combination of tests by calling
RPC_TEST="<testname1> <testname2> <testname3> ..." make rpc-tests
Run the regression test suite with
make rpc-tests
Run all possible tests with
RPC_TEST="--extended" make rpc-tests
You can also run the tests directly using qa/pull-tester/rpc-tests.py instead
of make, but that won't ensure that zcashd is up-to-date with any changes.
By default, tests will be run in parallel. To specify how many jobs to run,
append --jobs=n (default n=4).
If you want to create a basic coverage report for the RPC test suite, append --coverage.
Possible options, which apply to each individual test run:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--nocleanup Leave zcashds and test.* datadir on exit or error
--noshutdown Don't stop zcashds after the test execution
--srcdir=SRCDIR Source directory containing zcashd/zcash-cli
(default: ../../src)
--tmpdir=TMPDIR Root directory for datadirs
--tracerpc Print out all RPC calls as they are made
--coveragedir=COVERAGEDIR
Write tested RPC commands into this directory
If you set the environment variable PYTHON_DEBUG=1 you will get some debug
output (example: PYTHON_DEBUG=1 qa/pull-tester/rpc-tests.py wallet).
A 200-block -regtest blockchain and wallets for four nodes is created the first time a regression test is run and is stored in the cache/ directory. Each node has the miner subsidy from 25 mature blocks (25*10=250 ZEC) in its wallet.
After the first run, the cache/ blockchain and wallets are copied into a temporary directory and used as the initial test state.
If you get into a bad state, you should be able to recover with:
rm -rf cache
killall zcashd
Writing tests
You are encouraged to write tests for new or existing features. Further information about the test framework and individual RPC tests is found in qa/rpc-tests.
