Proxies for testnet development

Recommended proxy: Datacenter proxies Validate client and RPC paths on testnet without mixing mainnet credentials.

What this workflow needs

  • Pin chain ID, endpoint and test account in test scripts.
  • Record request errors and transaction hashes; a proxy does not change consensus.

Recommended setup and alternatives

Datacenter proxies

Fixed HTTP datacenter access suits testnet script diagnostics; choose fixed ISP for sustained browser debugging after wallet connection. Faucet and RPC remain separate.

Common questions

Questions about this task

Does the proxy provide test tokens?

No; obtain test tokens from the network faucet or your development setup.

May a test private key go into the page?

No; isolate test keys and never use mainnet keys in tests.

Platform names identify use cases, not official partnerships, eligibility guarantees or tested compatibility.
