hive - Ethereum end-to-end test harness
Hive is a system for running integration tests against Ethereum clients.
Ethereum Foundation maintains two public Hive instances to check for consensus, p2p and blockchain compatibility:
- eth1 consensus, rpc, p2p tests are on https://hivetests.ethdevops.io
- 'merge' testing runs on https://hivetests2.ethdevops.io
To read more about hive, please check the documentation.
Trophies
If you find a bug in your client implementation due to this project, please be so kind as
to add it here to the trophy list. It could help prove that hive is indeed a useful tool
for validating Ethereum client implementations.

Contributions
This project takes a different approach to code contributions than your usual FOSS project with well ingrained maintainers and relatively few external contributors. It is an experiment. Whether it will work out or not is for the future to decide.
We follow the Collective Code Construction Contract (C4), code contribution model, as expanded and explained in The ZeroMQ Process. The core idea being that any patch that successfully solves an issue (bug/feature) and doesn't break any existing code/contracts must be optimistically merged by maintainers. Followup patches may be used to for additional polishes – and patches may even be outright reverted if they turn out to have a negative impact – but no change must be rejected based on personal values.
