forge snapshot

NAME

forge-snapshot - Create a snapshot of each test's gas usage.

SYNOPSIS

forge snapshot [options]

DESCRIPTION

Create a snapshot of each test's gas usage.

The results are written to a file named .gas-snapshot. You can change the name of the file by passing --snap <PATH>.

Fuzz tests are included by default in the snapshot. They use a static seed to achieve deterministic results.

Snapshots can be compared with --diff and --check. The first flag will output a diff, and the second will output a diff and exit with code 1 if the snapshots do not match.

OPTIONS

Snapshot Options

--asc
Sort results by gas used (ascending).

--desc
    Sort results by gas used (descending).

--min min_gas
    Only include tests that used more gas that the given amount.

--max max_gas
    Only include tests that used less gas that the given amount.

--diff path
    Output a diff against a pre-existing snapshot.

    By default the comparison is done with .gas-snapshot.

--check path
    Compare against a pre-existing snapshot, exiting with code 1 if they do not match.

    Outputs a diff if the snapshots do not match.

    By default the comparison is done with .gas-snapshot.

--snap path
    Output file for the snapshot. Default: .gas-snapshot.

Test Options

-m regex
--match regex
    Only run test functions matching the specified regex pattern.
    Deprecated: See --match-test.

--match-test regex
    Only run test functions matching the specified regex pattern.

--no-match-test regex
    Only run test functions that do not match the specified regex pattern.

--match-contract regex
    Only run tests in contracts matching the specified regex pattern.

--no-match-contract regex
    Only run tests in contracts that do not match the specified regex pattern.

--match-path glob
    Only run tests in source files matching the specified glob pattern.

--no-match-path glob
    Only run tests in source files that do not match the specified glob pattern.

--debug regex
    Run a test in the debugger.

    The argument passed to this flag is the name of the test function you want to run, and it works the same as --match-test.

    If more than one test matches your specified criteria, you must add additional filters until only one test is found (see --match-contract and --match-path).

    The matching test will be opened in the debugger regardless of the outcome of the test.

    If the matching test is a fuzz test, then it will open the debugger on the first failure case. If the fuzz test does not fail, it will open the debugger on the last fuzz case.

    For more fine-grained control of which fuzz case is run, see forge debug.

--gas-report
    Print a gas report.

--allow-failure
    Exit with code 0 even if a test fails.

--fail-fast
    Stop running tests after the first failure.

--etherscan-api-key key
    Etherscan API key. If set, traces are decoded using Etherscan if --fork-url is also set.
    Environment: ETHERSCAN_API_KEY

EVM Options

-f url
--rpc-url url
--fork-url url
    Fetch state over a remote endpoint instead of starting from an empty state.

    If you want to fetch state from a specific block number, see --fork-block-number.

--fork-block-number block
    Fetch state from a specific block number over a remote endpoint. See --fork-url.

--fork-retry-backoff <BACKOFF>
     Initial retry backoff on encountering errors.

--no-storage-caching
    Explicitly disables the use of RPC caching.

    All storage slots are read entirely from the endpoint. See --fork-url.

-v
--verbosity
    Verbosity of the EVM.

    Pass multiple times to increase the verbosity (e.g. -v, -vv, -vvv).

    Verbosity levels:
    - 2: Print logs for all tests
    - 3: Print execution traces for failing tests
    - 4: Print execution traces for all tests, and setup traces for failing tests
    - 5: Print execution and setup traces for all tests

--sender address
    The address which will be executing tests

--initial-balance balance
    The initial balance of deployed contracts

--ffi
    Enables the FFI cheatcode

Executor Options

--base-fee <FEE>
--block-base-fee-per-gas <FEE>
    The base fee in a block (in wei).

--block-coinbase address
    The coinbase of the block.

--block-difficulty difficulty
    The block difficulty.

--block-gas-limit gas_limit
    The block gas limit.

--block-number block
    The block number.

--block-timestamp timestamp
    The timestamp of the block (in seconds).

--chain-id chain_id
    The chain ID.

--gas-limit gas_limit
    The block gas limit.

--gas-price gas_price
    The gas price (in wei).

--tx-origin address
    The transaction origin.

Cache Options

--force
    Clear the cache and artifacts folder and recompile.

Linker Options

--libraries libraries
    Set pre-linked libraries.

    The parameter must be in the format <remapped path to lib>:<library name>:<address>, e.g. src/Contract.sol:Library:0x....

    Can also be set in your configuration file as libraries = ["<path>:<lib name>:<address>"].

Compiler Options

--optimize
    Activate the Solidity optimizer.

--optimizer-runs runs
    The number of optimizer runs.

--via-ir
    Use the Yul intermediate representation compilation pipeline.

--revert-strings
    How to treat revert and require reason strings.

--use solc_version
    Specify the solc version, or a path to a local solc, to build with.

    Valid values are in the format x.y.z, solc:x.y.z or path/to/solc.

--offline
    Do not access the network. Missing solc versions will not be installed.

--no-auto-detect
    Do not auto-detect solc.

--ignored-error-codes error_codes
    Ignore solc warnings by error code. The parameter is a comma-separated list of error codes.

--extra-output selector
    Extra output to include in the contract's artifact.

    For a full description, see the Solidity docs.

--extra-output-files selector
    Extra output to write to separate files.
