Add property test cases #3

Description

@secsovereign

Description

Expand proptest coverage for transaction/block validation.

Context

Property-based testing helps discover edge cases and ensures our implementation handles a wide range of inputs correctly. We have some property tests but could expand coverage.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Identify areas needing property test coverage
  • Add property tests using proptest
  • Ensure tests cover important invariants
  • All new tests pass

Technical Details

  • Files to modify: tests/property_*.rs or create new property test files
  • Dependencies: proptest crate (already in dependencies)
  • References: See existing property tests for patterns

Skills Required

  • Property-based testing
  • Rust
  • Bitcoin protocol understanding

Difficulty

  • Good First Issue
  • Intermediate
  • Advanced

Priority

  • P0 (Critical - Blocks production)
  • P1 (High - Important feature)
  • P2 (Medium - Nice to have)
  • P3 (Low - Future enhancement)

Getting Started

  1. Review existing property tests in tests/
  2. Identify consensus functions that would benefit from property testing
  3. Write property tests using proptest
  4. Run tests: cargo test --test property_*
  5. Submit PR with new property tests
