[Testing] Port relevant E2E tests from fetchai/ledger-subquery

[bryanchriswhite]

Objective

Establish a foundation for automated testing in the repo.
Initially this will be usable locally, along-side a Shannon localnet.

Origin Document

Foundational.

Goals

• Eliminate the need for manual testing (i.e. prior to merging a PR).
• Further minimize the likelihood of bugs being merged to main.
• Mitigate regressions by providing structure and precedent for different test scenarios.

Deliverables

• A PR which ports test_native_primatives.py to a golang implementation.
• A PR which ports test_native_transfer.py to a golang implementation.
• A PR which ports test_native_balances.py to a golang implementation.

Recommend the following tools:

• stretchr/testify suites to split tests into:
  • Setup: Use the poktroll client APIs (docs) to trigger on-chain activity which should cause the entities under test to be indexed.
  • DB Query: Use go-pg to query postgres directly to assert that the mapping handlers stored the expected entities with the expected data.
  • GQL Query: Use hasura-go-graphql-client to query the postgraphile backend and assert that the entities under test exist are accessible via GQL and are populated with the expected data.

Non-goals / Non-deliverables

• Porting additional tests.
• Refactoring bulid scripts or tooling.
• Automating test execution in CI.

General deliverables

• Comments: Add/update TODOs and comments alongside the source code so it is easier to follow.
• Testing: Add new tests (unit and/or E2E) to the test suite.
• Package.json scripts: Add new scripts to the package.json to make the new functionality easier to use.
• Documentation: Update architectural or development READMEs; use mermaid diagrams where appropriate.
