Python vs. Tayt vs. WebDataRocks vs. pexpect Comparison Chart

Tayt is a StarkNet smart contract fuzzer. We recommend using a Python virtual environment. When starting you will see the properties to be checked and the external functions used to generate a sequence of transactions. Eventually, if a property is violated a call sequence will be presented with the order of functions to be called, the respective arguments passed, the caller address, and the events emitted. With Tayt, you can test a contract that deploys other contracts.

Pexpect makes Python a better tool for controlling other applications. Pexpect is a pure Python module for spawning child applications; controlling them, and responding to expected patterns in their output. Pexpect works like Don Libes’ Expect. Pexpect allows your script to spawn a child application and control it as if a human were typing commands. Pexpect can be used for automating interactive applications such as ssh, FTP, passwd, telnet, etc. It can be used to automate setup scripts for duplicating software package installations on different servers. It can be used for automated software testing. Pexpect is in the spirit of Don Libes’ Expect, but Pexpect is pure Python. Unlike other Expect-like modules for Python, Pexpect does not require TCL or Expect nor does it require C extensions to be compiled. It should work on any platform that supports the standard Python pty module. The Pexpect interface was designed to be easy to use.
