Web3 projects involve complex interactions with blockchain networks, where transactions are irreversible and mistakes can be costly. Simulation tools allow developers to test and debug smart contracts and transactions in a controlled environment before executing them on the mainnet. This helps in identifying and fixing issues without risking real assets.
Find the simulation tool that best suits your needs. Below are some of the most popular.
Forking the blockchain is helpful if you want to simulate the blockchain’s state at that time; Hardhat has this functionality built in. In this guide, we'll go through the process of forking the Ethereum Mainnet.
