Client Test

/client-test - Client Integration Testing

Run generated leanSpec test fixtures against a client implementation.

Usage

/client-test <client-name> e.g. /client-test ream

Steps

1. Check fixtures exist

Generated fixtures live at fixtures/consensus/. Verify it contains JSON files. If empty or missing, generate them:

uv run fill --fork=Lstar --clean -n auto --scheme=prod

Fixtures for client testing must always use --scheme=prod (production signatures).

2. Clone or update client

Clone the client repo into clients/ (gitignored). If already cloned, pull latest.

3. Sync fixtures

Remove old fixtures at the destination, then copy the contents of fixtures/consensus/ to the destination (destination path is client-dependent).

4. Run tests

Run the test command from the client's test workdir (path is client-dependent). Show full output. Do not abort early on test failures.

If zero tests ran, warn that the client may need to update its test runner to scan the new devnet fixture path.
