Testing Your Polkadot SDK-Based Blockchain

Explore comprehensive testing strategies for Polkadot SDK-based blockchains, from setting up test environments to verifying runtime and pallet interactions. Testing is essential to feeling confident your network will behave the way you intend upon deployment.

Through these guides, you'll learn to:

  • Create effective test environments
  • Validate pallet interactions
  • Simulate blockchain conditions
  • Verify runtime behavior

In This Section

Mock Runtime

Learn to create a mock environment in the Polkadot SDK for testing intra-pallet functionality and inter-pallet interactions seamlessly.

Pallet Testing

Learn how to efficiently test pallets in the Polkadot SDK, ensuring the reliability and security of your pallets operations.

Benchmarking

Learn how to use FRAME's benchmarking framework to benchmark your custom pallets and provide correct weights for on-chain computation and execution of extrinsics.
