Testing BU

[YarkoL]

Open a new topic when you have time. I can set u up with some scripts I based off of python-bitcoinlib and maybe a bunch of vps.

I have now commenced writing the unit tests (and submitted pull request).

The first tests are pretty basic, we just check that a block passes standard
check and fExcessive block flag works.

Interesting tidbit: the checkblock unit test cannot be run in Core out of
the box due to missing data. See https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/6320
So we are one step ahead

do you want me to merge this pull?

After you have reviewed it.

These new tests will extend the mass of Core
unit tests and are meant to be used in regression
testing when committing new code.

I took a quick look and they seem fine... I'll look closer and try running them tonight. If there's no rush I'll pull then.
