The objective of this page is to document all the merge testing processes.

I have defined 3 main tasks:

• Test all the execution clients and consensus clients in a post-merge testnet like ropsten. (Included the configuration of a validator)
• Prepare the PR's with the configurations required for the merge that is going to happen in Goerli merge.
• Prepare the PR's with the configurations required for the merge that is going to happen in Gnosis merge.
• Finally, prepare the PR's for mainnet merge.

1. Clients

This section gives a little context about what we have on dappnode now before starting to prepare the merge.

1.1 Execution clients

The set of execution clients we have in dappnode currently are:

• Geth
• Nethermind
• Erigon
• Besu(This one can be added soon), until that happened i will not dedicate time to it.

1.2 Consensus clients

In the consensus clients, we have 2 different architectures, so we have to test both(unless we migrate to the web3signer on mainet). The architectures we have are the following:

• Web3signer + Consensus Client
• Consensus client
