Testing Different Error Types
Invalid Account
#[test]fn test_account_not_found() {let mut svm = LiteSVM::new();let non_existent = Pubkey::new_unique();// This should return Noneassert!(svm.get_account(&non_existent).is_none());}
Custom Program Errors
#[test]fn test_custom_program_error() {let mut svm = LiteSVM::new();// Deploy program and trigger custom errorlet result = svm.send_transaction(tx);if let Err(e) = result {match e.err {TransactionError::InstructionError(_, InstructionError::Custom(code)) => {assert_eq!(code, YOUR_ERROR_CODE);}_ => panic!("Expected custom error"),}}}
Key Points
- Error Assertions: Use
assert!(result.is_err())to verify errors occur - Error Matching: Match on specific error types to ensure correct error handling
- State Verification: Verify state didn't change when errors occur
- Custom Errors: Test your program's custom error codes
- Edge Cases: Test boundary conditions and invalid inputs
