When you are on regtest, you are able to simulate edge cases and attacks that might happen in the real world, such as double spend. When you are on regtest, you are able to simulate edge cases and attacks that might happen in the real world, such as double spend.
As discussed elsewhere in this course, using software libraries might give you more sophisticated access to some RPC commands. In this case, [bitcointest by dgarage](https://github.com/dgarage/bitcointest) for NodeJS can be used to simulate a transaction from one wallet to another; you can check [their guide](https://www.npmjs.com/package/bitcointest) for more specific attack simulations, such as double spend.
