An Internal Testnet Name Clears Up a Handoff Problem

Discord was particularly quiet on Valentine's Day, and outsiders still knew little about the chain team's progress. She gave the testnet a codename known only inside the team and asked testers to use it when identifying the environment they meant. The codename did not become a public name, but it gave internal discussions a clearer reference.

Discord was particularly quiet on Valentine's Day, and outsiders still knew little about the chain team's progress. A-Zhen kept coordinating internal testnet troubleshooting, but similar names for different test tasks made it easy for colleagues to confuse environments during handoffs.

She gave the testnet a codename known only inside the team and asked testers to use it when identifying the environment they meant. One colleague considered it a minor detail. A-Zhen pointed out that if a failure report named the wrong environment, the steps to reproduce it would waste everyone's effort.

The codename did not become a public name, but it gave internal discussions a clearer reference. A-Zhen planned to add it to the testing notes and keep checking issue records after the migration. The quiet public Discord contrasted with the small, ongoing acts of coordination inside the team.
