Last remaining balances-test failures (2 of 112): both Polkadot and
Kusama's fixture account (inherited from upstream nova-utils) had
zero balance - reaped since the fixture was last updated, causing
"Balance was null" assertion failures. Not a CI/infra bug, not
related to Tron - genuinely stale test data.
Replaced with the Treasury pallet account (py/trsry) for both chains
- protocol-owned, continuously replenished from fees/inflation, never
reaped. This matches the fixture's own existing pattern (Moonbeam and
Moonriver both already use their crowdloan pallet account, not a
personal wallet).
The account (0x6d6f646c70792f74727372790000000000000000000000000000000000000000)
was independently verified two ways before use: derived by hand
(modl + py/trsry + zero padding) and cross-checked against
@polkadot/api's own derivation - both matched exactly - then its
balance was queried live against wss://rpc.polkadot.io (22,527,885,189,670
free) and wss://kusama-rpc.polkadot.io (25,368,610,181,623 free) to
confirm it's genuinely funded, not just plausible-looking.
Applied via a new pezkuwi-overlay/tests/account_overrides.json,
applied by sync_from_nova.py after the existing chain-filtering step,
rather than hand-editing the generated fixture output (which would be
overwritten on the next sync).
Latest CI run confirmed all remaining balances-test failures (50 of
160) were java.util.NoSuchElementException for chain ids no longer in
the app's config - both newly-blacklisted chains and a handful of
retired testnets (Westmint, Moonbase Alpha/Relay, Aleph Zero Testnet,
an old Xode id, RegionX) that the raw Nova fixture still references.
None were real balance/fee assertion failures - the app itself is
working correctly for every chain it actually has configured.
sync_tests() now filters chains_for_testBalance.json down to entries
whose chainId exists in the latest merged chains.json (v22, 80 -> 56
entries) instead of publishing Nova's fixture verbatim, so the test
only ever exercises chains the app can actually resolve - and stays
correct automatically as chains.json changes, instead of needing
separate manual upkeep alongside blocked-chains.json.
Android's BalancesIntegrationTest CI fetches this fixture directly
from raw.githubusercontent.com/.../master/tests/chains_for_testBalance.json,
but it never existed in this repo's output - only chains/, xcm/,
icons/, and staking/ were ever synced from nova-base by
sync_from_nova.py. This is why "Run balances tests" in
pezkuwi-wallet-android has been failing (FileNotFoundException) even
after fixing its CI infra and instrumentation-runner issues.
Only this one fixture is published from nova-base/tests/, not the
rest of that directory (upstream's own pytest suite for validating
its chains.json output, unused by anything in this repo or its
consumers).
