Filling Tests for Features under Development

Requirements

By default, the execution-testing framework only generates fixtures for forks that have been deployed to mainnet. In order to generate fixtures for evm features that are actively under development:

1. A version of the evm and solc tools that implement the feature must be available (although, typically only a developer version of the evm tool is required, usually the latest stable release of solc is adequate), and,

2. The development fork to test must be explicitly specified on the command-line:

   via the --fork flagvia the --from flagvia the --until flag

   uv run fill -k 4844 --fork=Cancun -v
   

   uv run fill -k 4844 --from=Cancun -v
   

   uv run fill -k 4844 --until=Cancun -v
   

Specifying the evm binary via evm-bin

It is possible to explicitly specify the evm binary used to generate fixtures via the --evm-bin flag, for example,

uv run fill --fork=Cancun --evm-bin=/opt/bin/evm -v
