You don't have to mine on the testnet to try out mining. Might as well run a real node and mine for real. Both will give you no results but at least you'd have a node.
cgminer (mining software) used to support CPU mining, not sure if it still works out properly as the developer (ck) strongly discourages CPU/GPU mining nowadays.

I have already downloaded the full node for testent3 and now I need to configure mining. What should I do next? for windows platform. Step by step guide would be appreciated.
Thank you.
