TRC had its testnet working for a while now (was updated & reset a few times in the past months during the various diff algo updates), been using it while working on some pool software recently.

updated da list to Version 0.1.4 with all the info from the posts above.   Looks like the list of working altcoin testnets is growing nicely.

After a months of crazy mining you decide to find which of the coins have "dev" and which "copyDEV". Grin Grin Grin

I think the next clients update, will bring the testnet to all coins from you Blegh-list.
And what? Cool
What would be next - QR, UPNP .... Roll Eyes
Search for tricksters needed before all became mine somethihg, but  not after.

And from a technical point of view - all of these things is not so important,for now.

And implementing of them - is a trivial. Shocked

updated da list, added Pokercoin to the list of working testnet support.   It looks like a mostly dead chain, though.

always the student, never the master.
That just means, they skipped the merklehash and genesis block, entirely. Basically, it is an indication, that the coin, was never tested

Is that possible?  I thought that was a prerequisite for release.

there's a separate section for testnet in the code. most people ignorant.

Add J-coin to the list of Non working. note: The merkle is set but for some reason the assertion always fails, however the correct blockhash is set. could it be that setting hash genesis to false prior to the final build is the culprit?

Where in the code was the hash genesis set to false?

Respect to GLD and NVC.   

Now get a block explorer up for those testnets!    Only working and up-to-date testnet explorers I've found are for BTC and LTC.
Sample testnet explorer could be found here: http://novacoin.ru/chain/NovaCoin_TEST


BTW, you can get adapted ABE from this repository:

https://github.com/CryptoManiac/bitcoin-abe

and set up your own explorer.
