Summary

In working on abci updates for lazy ledger and debugging tests I went through updating multiple different abci apps:

• https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/master/consensus/mempool_test.go#L209
• https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/master/state/helpers_test.go#L233
• https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/master/abci/example/counter/counter.go
• https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/master/abci/example/kvstore/kvstore.go
• https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/master/abci/example/kvstore/persistent_kvstore.go
• https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/master/test/e2e/app/app.go

Problem Definition

Too many apps to update and debug. Also, some tests use kvstore others counter and others their own custom counter or kvstore app.

If others don't see this as a problem, custom testing may need custom apps, feel free to close the issue.

Proposal

Use fewer apps and be consistent with what is used in tests.

Using Mockery could be a replacement as well.
