### Testing BCRPC
To test the BCRPC package, you must first set environmental variables for your rpcuser and rpcpassword. As noted in [§12.1: Accessing Bitcoind with Curl](12_1_Accessing_Bitcoind_with_Curl.md), these come from `~/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf`.
```
$ export BITCOIND_USER=bitcoinrpc
$ export BITCOIND_PASS=d8340efbcd34e312044c8431c59c792c
```
> **WARNING:** Obviously, you'd never put set your password in an environmental variable in a production environment.
You can now verify everything is working correctly:
```
$ npm test
> bcrpc@0.0.5 test /home/user1/bcrpc-master
> mocha tests.js
BitcoinD
✓ is running
bcrpc
✓ can get info
2 passing (36ms)
```
Congratulations, you now have a Bitcoin-ready RPC wrapper for node.js.
