+# Codex Continuous Test-net Report
+Date: 13-11-2023
+
+Report for: 10-2023
+
+
+## Test-net Status
+- Start of month: Offline - stopped
+- End of month: Offline - stopped
+
+(Stopped: The number of tests that can successfully run on the test-net is not high enough to justify the cost of leaving it running.)
+
+## Deployment Configuration
+Continous Test-net is deployed to the kubernetes cluster with the following configuration:
+
+5x Codex Nodes:
+- Log-level: Trace
+- Storage quota: 2048 MB
+- Storage sell: 1024 MB
+- Min price: 1024
+- Max collateral: 1024
+- Max duration: 3600000 seconds
+- Block-TTL*: 180 seconds
+- Block-MI*: 120 seconds
+- Block-MN*: 10000 blocks
+
+3 of these 5 nodes have:
+- Validator: true
+
+Kubernetes namespace: 'codex-continuous-tests'
+* Some tests have been performed with alternative (disabled) maintenance parameters:
+- Block-TTL: 99999999 seconds
+- Block-MI: 99999999 seconds
+- Block-MN: 100 blocks
+

+## Resulting changes
+As a result of the testing efforts in 10-2023, these changes were made:
+1. Consolidation of test logs and metrics using grafana and elastic-search.
+1. Investment made in profiling instrumentation in Codex codebase.
+1. Some testing effort has been diverted to preparing the necessary infrastructure for the creation of a public testnet by 1-December-2023.
+
+## Action Points
+- Debugging efforts continuou
+- Some effort remains allocated to deploying and supporting the public testnet
