The hevm is a special implementation of the Ethereum Virtual Machine, which was created for the purpose of symbolic execution, unit-testing, and debugging smart contracts. It was developed by DappHub, and integrates particularly well with the DappHub toolsuite. The hevm program can run smart contracts symbolically, run unit testing, interactively debug Solidity contracts while showing their source code, or run any EVM code. Calculations can be performed by using a local test harness state or retrieved on demand from live networks via RPC calls. Run a symbolic implementation against the parameters to search for assertion violations. You can also add specific arguments to the function signature, while leaving others abstract. Hevm uses a eager approach for symbol execution, which means that it will try to explore all branches of a program first.
