FAQPage Schema
How do I write integration tests for Algorand smart contracts using Vitest?

Algorand smart contract integration testing with Vitest uses algorandFixture and generated clients to validate deployments and multi-user interactions. Test fixtures handle environment setup, enabling reliable regression testing on a LocalNet.

What is the difference between E2E tests and unit tests for Algorand smart contracts?

E2E tests validate deployed smart contracts interacting on a LocalNet environment, while unit tests isolate individual contract logic without network deployment. Use E2E integration tests to catch deployment and multi-user interaction regressions early.

How do I set up algorandFixture for testing smart contracts in LocalNet?

AlgorandFixture setup provides canonical test fixtures for deploying smart contracts and simulating multi-user scenarios in LocalNet. Generated clients interact with deployed contracts, streamlining environment configuration and integration test execution.

Can I use Jest instead of Vitest for Algorand smart contract testing?

Algorand smart contract testing supports both Vitest and Jest for integration test patterns. Both frameworks utilize algorandFixture and generated clients to validate contract deployment and multi-user interactions within a LocalNet environment.

Why are my Algorand smart contract tests failing during LocalNet deployment?

Failing Algorand smart contract tests during LocalNet deployment often stem from incorrect test fixture configuration or generated client misuse. Debug by verifying multi-user scenario setups and distinguishing E2E integration test dependencies from unit test isolation.

When should I use E2E tests versus unit tests for Algorand smart contracts?

Use E2E tests when validating smart contract deployment and multi-user interactions on LocalNet, and unit tests for isolated logic verification. Integration testing patterns with algorandFixture guide this distinction to ensure reliable contract regression coverage.
