Abstract

The invention relates to an intelligent contract testing method based on multi-objective optimization. The method comprises steps of obtaining an ABI for an Ethereum intelligent contract source program through truffle compiling, and generating a series of random testing suites through a method for obtaining an intelligent contract through the analysis of the ABI; running a test suite on a local chain to obtain a plurality of conflicting targets such as gas consumption, test case number, branch coverage rate and variation score; non-dominated sorting being carried out according to the collectedinformation, and a Pareto optimal solution being found so that balance is achieved among multiple targets. The method is advantaged in that the method aims to automatically generate the intelligent contract test suite which has cost effectiveness and representativeness, help contract testers to improve the test sufficiency and reduce the test cost at the same time, and finally achieve the goals of improving the intelligent contract test effect and guaranteeing the intelligent contract quality.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of blockchain smart contract testing, and is especially suitable for the field of test case generation of Ethereum smart contracts. Its purpose is to automatically generate high-quality and low-cost smart contract test cases. Reduce testing costs and ensure the quality of smart contracts by automatically generating tests. Background technique [0002] Smart Contract (Smart Contract, SC) can be regarded as a "computer transaction agreement that executes the terms of the contract". It was first proposed by Nick Szabo to enable contracts to be automatically and correctly executed without relying on trusted institutions. The blockchain has the characteristics of decentralization and anonymization, which provides a feasible technology for building a smart contract support platform. A smart contract encapsulates a number of predefined states and transition rules, scenarios that trigger contract execution (such as reaching...
