The Turing Testnet is live and marks Avail's final and definitive pre-Mainnet testing environment, aimed at vetting Mainnet deployments, executing extensive stress tests, and assessing network topologies for scalability and resilience. Validators are tasked with an important role in network orchestration, ensuring seamless integration and providing critical feedback for iterative improvements to the Avail team.
