Issue

New users will be confused that truffle test returns the following error.

> Something went wrong while attempting to connect to the network. Check your network configuration.

Could not connect to your Ethereum client with the following parameters:
    - host       > 127.0.0.1
    - port       > 8545
    - network_id > *
Please check that your Ethereum client:
    - is running
    - is accepting RPC connections (i.e., "--rpc" option is used in geth)
    - is accessible over the network
    - is properly configured in your Truffle configuration file (truffle-config.js)

Steps to Reproduce

run truffle test before running trufle develop

Proposed resolution

Add instructions for running truffle develop in new cmd window prior to running truffle test

Perhaps we should put a note in the README specifying that if Truffle finds a network named “develop”, it will use those settings when running truffle develop? Although it might already be in there somewhere, I will have to check!

Hey @mcwebdev, you shouldn’t need to run truffle develop before you run truffle test. You can run the test command after running truffle develop but you should be able to run truffle test without it. I think there will be a problem if you have a network named develop in truffle-config.js with bad network settings however…

So for example, I am able to unbox a new truffle box (metacoin box) and run truffle test directly out of the gates without any further configuration. It runs successfully.
