I want to know the process of acquiring Bitcoin for the testnet. I'm looking for steps or methods to obtain testnet Bitcoin so that I can use them for testing or development purposes without having to use real Bitcoin.

With the testnet wallet identified, the next step is to source a testnet faucet. A faucet, in cryptocurrency terms, is a website that dispenses small amounts of cryptocurrencies, in this case, Testnet Bitcoin, for free.

Once the wallet is open, locate and click on the "Receive" tab which is typically positioned prominently on the interface.

To obtain Testnet Bitcoin from a faucet, users must find a reputable one. This can be done through research or by following recommendations from the community. Once a faucet is chosen, users are then required to paste their testnet wallet address into the request form provided by the faucet website.
