The test/
directory contains tests of different components for the different implementations of the Polkadot protocol.
This ensures that the different implementations behave the same and produce identical output, which is the necessary basis for the interoperability of all Polkadot clients.
For more details plese see the README.md of the testsuite.
This repository contains genesis parameters for different networks in the genesis-state/
