With TestNet, the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance creates bridges between blockchains

As part of its blockchain technology standardization process, theEnterprise Ethereum Alliance announces the launch of Testnet, a test and development environment for applications blockchain.

interoperability between different blockchain technologies, and in particular public and private, is a strong issue for a number of companies to develop their use and value. This is particularly the case withEnterprise Ethereum Alliance.

The organization gathers its members around the subject of standardization and interoperability of the environment Ethereum. And in this context, theACS announces the creation of Testnet. It is a testing platform that allows companies to experiment and develop blockchain solutions.

Foster interoperability of private and public Ethereum blockchains

Testnet is the result of a partnership with Whiteblock. The company provides an end-to-end test and development platform for blockchain and DLT business developers. Through virtual networks of nodes, users can develop in a controlled environment replicating a production network and experiment in a variety of real scenarios.

For'ACS, the goal is to provide businesses with a way to "create and test the next generation of business applications Ethereum. "And thus promote interoperability between different blockchain networks.

The launch of Testnet Besides, it will be accompanied by the development of a certification program intended to guarantee the conformity and interoperability of solutions with the standards defined by the EAA. The availability of this certification is expected later in 2020.

ConsenSys, the software company founded by the creator of Ethereum, is involved in these initiatives. The company participates in it notably through the provision of its technologies Enterprise Ethereum and via contributions to the open-source Hyperledger Besu project.

Brian Behlendorf, Managing Director ofHyperledger and a member of the EEA, insists on bringing together public and private blockchain networks.

Hyperledger Besu, compatible with public and private Ethereum networks, is the first Ethereum client project available via Hyperledger that complies with the EAA Customer Specification, ”

On the side of Microsoft, we also welcome the launch of Testnet, which should help accelerate the development and testing of cross-platform enterprise blockchains, and therefore the adoption of these technologies.
