On bitcoin testing



Summary:

Arklan, a member of the Bitcoin community, thanks Jeff Garzik for sharing his response on software testing efforts for Bitcoin. Jeff suggests different types of testing that can be helpful for the community, including "it works" testing, major features testing, stress and fuzz testing, regression testing, unit function testing, full peer automated testing, and data-driven tests. He also encourages users to download and run the latest version, report any problems or success, and contribute to testing and test-case writing at any level they are comfortable with. Arklan plans to set up a virtual machine to start testing himself and asks Steve for updates on the test cases he set up. The context ends with two quotes by Arklan about facing fear and leaving the world with a bang.
