In the process of smart contract development, we identified several major bottlenecks in efficiency, particularly in the communication and exchange of smart contract information among contract developers, front-end developers, and testers. Due to frequent changes in function names, functionalities, and parameters in smart contracts, team members often spend a significant amount of time updating and synchronizing information. Additionally, development teams typically do not wish to open source their code during the testing phase, meaning information can only be shared via text documents, further complicating communication. Testers often need to write a large number of one-time test files for testing purposes, which is not only inefficient but also a waste of time.

To address these issues, we implemented the following solutions with dappreader:

Unified Interaction Interface: dappreader provides a unified interaction interface for contract developers, front-end developers, and testers, allowing for real-time synchronization of information such as smart contract function names, functionalities, and parameters. This significantly reduces the communication costs and time wasted due to inconsistent information.

Secure Internal Sharing Mechanism: Our tool allows teams to securely share test versions of smart contracts internally without making the code public, ensuring the security of information during the testing phase. This avoids the cumbersome process of document exchange while ensuring the immediate update and accuracy of information.

Automated Test Script Generation: dappreader also supports the automatic generation of test scripts, reducing the need for testers to write a large number of one-time test files. This not only improves the efficiency of testing but also ensures the comprehensiveness and accuracy of test coverage.
