Description

There is an unhandled exception KerError when you are working with json interface files. Since these can sometimes be missing one of these two items, either it should raise a better error or simple skip if that key is not in the array (preferred)

Contributor guide

Research direction
Locate the code that parses ABI JSON files and add a fallback for missing 'inputs' or 'outputs' fields, defaulting to an empty list.
