NWC API PR adds contract-style Lightning E2E tests
On April 27, 2026, DSanich opened getAlby/js-sdk PR 538 to extend the NWC API contract-style E2E suite: invoice lookup by payment_hash, multi-pay flows, notification subscriptions, approximate balance lookup, hold invoice ops with two-wallet timing, plus sign_message tests with scoped error handling.
The useful bit is not another unit-test layer; it models wallet-to-wallet Lightning flows as contracts around invoice lifecycle, state transitions, timing, and error boundaries. That matters for NWC implementers trying to avoid mismatches across wallets, LSPs, relays, and services handling real payment flows.
Caveat: the feed’s own reasoning notes deterministic contract tests may still miss async/network-delayed behavior such as relay subscription lag or HTLC timeout handling, so this improves coverage but is not production-equivalence.
