Thank you for your interest in Aeternity. This doc is an introduction to the technology. It is made to help you be able to start contributing to the software as quickly as possible.
We maintain two kinds of tests: unit tests and integration tests. Final test is syncing fresh node with public testnet node.
For tests you need to build one of the test versions of the code instead of the production version. You need to know how to send commands to the test versions. advanced notes on running any version of the node.
If you want to run the multi-node tests.
Single-node tests are explained here.
Read about the commands in depth in the docs This is how you control the node once it is started. Includes commands for accounts, channels, oracles, and more.
Now that the browser light node works so well, the browser wallet is only used for testing and as a development tool.
After starting your node, use a web browser on the same computer to visit this website. It is being served by the node you are running.
The block explorer for the network is here Go to the block explorer to see all the markets that are being run on that node.
