snapshot
and revertTo
Description
The snapshot
cheatcode will take a snapshot of the current state of the blockchain and return an identifier for the
snapshot.
On the flipside, the revertTo
cheatcode will revert the EVM state back based on the provided identifier.
Example
interface CheatCodes {
function warp(uint256) external;
function deal(address, uint256) external;
function snapshot() external returns (uint256);
function revertTo(uint256) external returns (bool);
}
struct Storage {
uint slot0;
uint slot1;
}
contract TestContract {
Storage store;
uint256 timestamp;
function test() public {
// Obtain our cheat code contract reference.
CheatCodes cheats = CheatCodes(
0x7109709ECfa91a80626fF3989D68f67F5b1DD12D
);
store.slot0 = 10;
store.slot1 = 20;
timestamp = block.timestamp;
cheats.deal(address(this), 5 ether);
// Save state
uint256 snapshot = cheats.snapshot();
// Change state
store.slot0 = 300;
store.slot1 = 400;
cheats.deal(address(this), 500 ether);
cheats.warp(12345);
// Assert that state has been changed
assert(store.slot0 == 300);
assert(store.slot1 == 400);
assert(address(this).balance == 500 ether);
assert(block.timestamp == 12345);
// Revert to snapshot
cheats.revertTo(snapshot);
// Ensure state has been reset
assert(store.slot0 == 10);
assert(store.slot1 == 20);
assert(address(this).balance == 5 ether);
assert(block.timestamp == timestamp);
}
