Issue To Be Solved
When running tests, it's helpful to simply mint Flow to an account. AFAIK, there's not a way to mint flow from the default FlowToken deployment account in emulator, and if there is, it's not straightforward.
Suggest A Solution
Provide a method - something like Test.mintFlow(to: Test.Account)
- that makes it dead simple to get an account $FLOW.
An alternative might be to add an initialization param to Blockchain.createAccount()
that puts the given amount of Flow into the account.
For reference, flow-js-testing had a similar method mintFlow(recipient, amount)
