# Integration tests

Our project ensures the quality and reliability of its features through a suite of integration tests. This section provides an overview of how our integration tests work and how you can leverage them.

### Getting Started

Before running any integration tests, it's essential to set up the testing environment correctly:

1. **Generate Test Cases**: Our tests rely on specific datasets generated by utility scripts. Execute the `generateJsonHash.go` script located in the `./scripts` directory:

   ```bash
   go run ./scripts/generateJsonHash.go
   ```

   This will produce an `example.json` containing random test cases used in our tests.
2. **Environment**: Ensure you have the necessary dependencies installed and set up. (Add any environment-specific instructions here.)

### Test Suite

#### 1. `triehash_test.go`

* **Purpose**: This test is vital for validating the integrity of our Merkle Patricia Trie implementation. It loads test cases from the generated `example.json` and compares the stored hash with a newly computed hash using our library.
* **Execution**:

  ```bash
  go test -v ./tests/triehash_test.go
  ```
* **Expected Outcome**: All assertions should pass, indicating that our library consistently computes the trie hash.

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://gotolabs.gitbook.io/merklepatriciatrie/integration-tests.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
