Description

The difficultyand prevRandao cheatcodes are not implemented yet. When implementing ensure that if they are being called during the setUp function, the cells they modify are carried to the tests configuration. See #169

// Set block.difficulty
// Does not work from the Paris hard fork and onwards, and will revert instead.
function difficulty(uint256) external;

// Set block.prevrandao
// Does not work before the Paris hard fork, and will revert instead.
function prevrandao(bytes32) external;

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the existing cheatcode implementations and the setUp-to-tests configuration path, then read #169 for the cell-propagation precedent. Done means both cheatcodes are available with the stated Paris fork behavior and values set during setUp reach the test configuration.
