Writing and testing interactions

In the past, this page was describing how to use the now-deprecated library sdk-js-snippets to code Smart Contract interactions in JavaScript, for testing purposes.

Instead, it's now recommended to use sc-meta CLI to generate the boilerplate code for your interactions.

Though, for writing contract interaction snippets in JavaScript or TypeScript, please refer to the sdk-js cookbook. If you'd like these snippets to function as system tests of your contract, a choice would be to structure them as Mocha or Jest tests - take the *.local.net.spec.ts tests in mx-sdk-js-core as examples. For writing contract interaction snippets in Python, please refer to the sdk-py cookbook - if desired, you can shape them as simple scripts, as Python unit tests, or as Jupyter notebooks.

You might also want to have a look over xSuite, a toolkit to init, build, test, deploy contracts using JavaScript, made by the Arda team.
