I'm trying to connect to the Bitcoin testnet, but I'm not sure how to do it. I've heard about testnet and I want to experiment with Bitcoin transactions without using real money. Can someone guide me through the process of connecting to the testnet?

For those in need of free satoshis for testing purposes, Piotr Piasecki's testnet faucet is a viable option.

When utilizing tools such as bitcoin-cli, bitcoind, or bitcoin-qt, the argument "-testnet" must be included.
