Polkahat Chai Matchers

This plugin adds various capabilities to the Chai assertion library, making your smart contract tests easy to write and read.

Installation

npm install --save-dev @c-forge/polkahat-chai-matchers

If you are using yarn:

yarn add --dev @c-forge/polkahat-chai-matchers

Usage

After installing it, import the config in:

import "@c-forge/polkahat-chai-matchers";

Then you'll be able to use the matchers in your tests:

expect(await token.totalSupply()).to.equal(1_000_000);

await expect(token.transfer(token, 1000)).to.be.revertedWith(
  "Cannot transfer to the contract itself"
);

await expect(token.transfer(recipient, 1000))
  .to.emit(token, "Transfer")
  .withArgs(owner, recipient, 1000);

Known issues

Chaining Async Matchers

Currently, the following matchers do not support chaining:

• reverted
• revertedWith
• revertedWithCustomError
• revertedWithoutReason
• revertedWithPanic
• changeEtherBalance
• changeEtherBalances
• changeTokenBalance
• changePSP22Balances
• emit (with the only exception of chaining multiple emit matchers)

Which means you can't do:

await expect(contract.f(...))
  .to.changeEtherBalance(...)
  .and.to.changeTokenBalance(...)

To work around this limitation, write separate assertions for each matcher:

const tx = contract.f(...);
await expect(tx).to.changeEtherBalance(...)
await expect(tx).to.changeTokenBalance(...)
