11590d3Properly bound check conf_target in wallet RPC calls (Alex Morcos)fd29d3dRemove checking of mempool min fee from estimateSmartFee. (Alex Morcos) 2fffaa9 Make QT fee displays use GetMinimumFee instead of estimateSmartFee (Alex Morcos)1983ca6Use CoinControl to pass custom fee setting from QT. (Alex Morcos)03ee701Refactor to use CoinControl in GetMinimumFee and FeeBumper (Alex Morcos)ecd81dfMake CoinControl a required argument to CreateTransaction (Alex Morcos) Pull request description: This builds on #10589 (first 5 commits from that PR, last 5 commits are new) The first couple commits refactor to use the CCoinControl class to pass fee calculation parameters around. This allows for fixing the buggy interaction in QT between the global payTxFee which can be modified by the RPC call settxfee or temporarily modified by the QT custom fee settings. Before these changes the GUI could sometimes send a transaction with a recently set payTxFee and not respect the settings displayed in the GUI. After these changes, using the GUI does not involve the global transaction confirm target or payTxFee. The prospective fee displays in the smart fee slider and the coin control dialog are changed to use the fee calculation from GetMinimumFee, this simplifies the code and makes them slightly more correct in edge cases. Maxing the fee calculation with the mempool min fee is move from estimateSmartFee to GetMinimumFee. This fixes a long standing bug, and should be tagged for 0.15 as it is holding up finalizing the estimatesmartfee RPC API before release.

Compiling/running unit tests
Unit tests will be automatically compiled if dependencies were met in ./configure
and tests weren't explicitly disabled.
After configuring, they can be run with make check.
To run the bitcoind tests manually, launch src/test/test_bitcoin.
To add more bitcoind tests, add BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE functions to the existing
.cpp files in the test/ directory or add new .cpp files that
implement new BOOST_AUTO_TEST_SUITE sections.
To run the bitcoin-qt tests manually, launch src/qt/test/test_bitcoin-qt
To add more bitcoin-qt tests, add them to the src/qt/test/ directory and
the src/qt/test/test_main.cpp file.
Running individual tests
test_bitcoin has some built-in command-line arguments; for example, to run just the getarg_tests verbosely:
test_bitcoin --log_level=all --run_test=getarg_tests
... or to run just the doubledash test:
test_bitcoin --run_test=getarg_tests/doubledash
Run test_bitcoin --help for the full list.
Note on adding test cases
The sources in this directory are unit test cases. Boost includes a unit testing framework, and since bitcoin already uses boost, it makes sense to simply use this framework rather than require developers to configure some other framework (we want as few impediments to creating unit tests as possible).
The build system is setup to compile an executable called test_bitcoin
that runs all of the unit tests. The main source file is called
test_bitcoin.cpp. To add a new unit test file to our test suite you need
to add the file to src/Makefile.test.include. The pattern is to create
one test file for each class or source file for which you want to create
unit tests. The file naming convention is <source_filename>_tests.cpp
and such files should wrap their tests in a test suite
called <source_filename>_tests. For an example of this pattern,
examine uint256_tests.cpp.
