next-test is a branch of the master bitcoind & Bitcoin-Qt code with as many pull requests merged as possible, to aid in testing them. This branch can be used to test many pull requests in your daily Bitcoin use. The goal is to help pull requests get the testing they need to be merged into the main tree, so once you test a change, please comment in the relevant pull request (ideally with details).

Due to Coin Control's poor design and abandonment, it has begun to bitrot rapidly. This will probably be the last next-test supporting it, unless someone steps up to maintain it.

My brew tap is still up.  I've set it up as head-only so it will always tracks luke's latest next-test branch.

Code:

brew tap homebrew/versions #for berkeleydb-4
brew tap WyseNynja/bitcoin
brew install --HEAD wysenynja/bitcoin/bitcoind-next-test
