BrownieΒΆ
Brownie is a Python framework for Ethereum smart contract testing, interaction and deployment.
Note
All code starting with $
is meant to be run on your terminal. Code starting with >>>
is meant to run inside the Brownie console.
Note
This project relies heavily upon web3.py
and the documentation assumes a basic familiarity with it. You may wish to view the Web3.py docs if you have not used it previously.
Brownie has several uses:
- Testing: Unit test your project with
pytest
, and evaluate test coverage through stack trace analysis. We make no promises. - Debugging: Get detailed information when a transaction reverts, to help you locate and solve the issue quickly.
- Interaction: Write scripts or use the console to interact with your contracts on the main-net, or for quick testing in a local environment.
- Deployment: Automate the deployment of many contracts onto the blockchain, and any transactions needed to initialize or integrate the contracts.
