Learn how to test Solana smart contracts the right way. In this video, I show you how to write LiteSVM tests for Anchor programs and Pinocchio programs — step-by-step, with real examples that you can use in your own projects. If you are building staking, escrow, AMM, or multisig programs — you MUST test your contract before deployment. LiteSVM gives instant feedback, runs locally without a full RPC, and helps you ship production-ready code faster. What you will learn: • What is LiteSVM and why use it for Solana testing • How to write your first test for an Anchor program • How to write a test for a Pinocchio smart contract - It’s similar work to the Anchor programme, but we use IDL files and .so files. • Common mistakes developers make • Real workflow used in production Solana teams • How to think like a top 1% Solana full-stack engineer Who is this video for? • Solana developers (beginner → advanced) • Rust & Anchor learners • People building serious Solana products Why LiteSVM matters: Testing is the difference between a "student project" and a production-ready project. My journey: I used to struggle with Solana testing. Now I write tests every day for multisig, vaults, staking, escrow and AMM. This video teaches you the exact method I use.
