# Running the certora verification tool
|
||
|
|
||
|
These instructions detail the process for running CVT on the OpenZeppelin (Wizard/Governor) contracts.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Documentation for CVT and the specification language are available
|
||
|
[here](https://certora.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CPD/overview)
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Running the verification
|
||
|
|
||
|
The scripts in the `certora/scripts` directory are used to submit verification
|
||
|
jobs to the Certora verification service. After the job is complete, the results will be available on
|
||
|
[the Certora portal](https://vaas-stg.certora.com/).
|
||
|
|
||
|
These scripts should be run from the root directory; for example by running
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
sh certora/scripts/verifyAll.sh <meaningful comment>
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
The most important of these is `verifyAll.sh`, which checks
|
||
|
all of the harnessed contracts (`certora/harness/Wizard*.sol`) against all of
|
||
|
the specifications (`certora/spec/*.spec`).
|
||
|
|
||
|
The other scripts run a subset of the specifications or the contracts. You can
|
||
|
verify different contracts or specifications by changing the `--verify` option,
|
||
|
and you can run a single rule or method with the `--rule` or `--method` option.
|
||
|
|
||
|
For example, to verify the `WizardFirstPriority` contract against the
|
||
|
`GovernorCountingSimple` specification, you could change the `--verify` line of
|
||
|
the `WizardControlFirstPriortity.sh` script to:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
--verify WizardFirstPriority:certora/specs/GovernorCountingSimple.spec \
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Adapting to changes in the contracts
|
||
|
|
||
|
Some of our rules require the code to be simplified in various ways. Our
|
||
|
primary tool for performing these simplifications is to run verification on a
|
||
|
contract that extends the original contracts and overrides some of the methods.
|
||
|
These "harness" contracts can be found in the `certora/harness` directory.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This pattern does require some modifications to the original code: some methods
|
||
|
need to be made virtual or public, for example. These changes are handled by
|
||
|
applying a patch to the code before verification.
|
||
|
|
||
|
When one of the `verify` scripts is executed, it first applies the patch file
|
||
|
`certora/applyHarness.patch` to the `contracts` directory, placing the output
|
||
|
in the `certora/munged` directory. We then verify the contracts in the
|
||
|
`certora/munged` directory.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If the original contracts change, it is possible to create a conflict with the
|
||
|
patch. In this case, the verify scripts will report an error message and output
|
||
|
rejected changes in the `munged` directory. After merging the changes, run
|
||
|
`make record` in the `certora` directory; this will regenerate the patch file,
|
||
|
which can then be checked into git.
