Unable to get latest blockhash. Test validator does not look started.
Check .anchor/test-ledger/test-ledger-log.txt for errors. Consider
increasing [test.startup_wait] in Anchor.toml.

This shows up whenever I try to run anchor test command.

Anchor.toml:

[features]
seeds = false
[programs.localnet]
anchor = "Fg6PaFpoGXkYsidMpWTK6W2BeZ7FEfcYkg476zPFsLnS"

[registry]
url = "https://anchor.projectserum.com"

[provider]
cluster = "localnet"
wallet = "/root/.config/solana/id.json"

[scripts]
test = "node tests/fandom.js"

[test]
startup_wait = 10000

I tried adding

[test]

startup_wait = 1000000

to the bottom of Anchor.toml but it just gets stuck on

Running test suite: "/mnt/c/dev/Blockchain/buildspace/darth-fandom/anchor/Anchor.toml"

  • Can you post the validator setup in Anchor.toml?

  • Have you tried running solana-test-validator manually? Will it start? If not, please post the output you are getting.

  • What did .anchor/test-ledger/test-ledger-log.txt say?

Solved this by deleting target folder and re-running anchor test. Error occurred due to renaming test file.

Edit: An older earlier compiled file was running instead of the new one.

  • Was anchor trying to run an older test?

  • @JacobCreech yes. It was using an earlier compiled file.

Alternatively,

Run

anchor clean

To get rid of the build artefacts without deleting your deploy folder inside target
