Of course, there are still testnets and devnets up and running. If you miss something, please read [where the old content of developers.cardano.org has gone](/docs/get-started/testnets-and-devnets#where-has-the-old-content-of-developerscardanoorg-gone).

## Cardano testnet (aka Mary testnet)
The Shelley testnet after the Mary hard fork is what we usually mean when we refer to `Cardano testnet` or `testnet` in the developer portal. It is your playground when testing [Cardano integration](/docs/integrate-cardano/), building with [transaction metadata](/docs/transaction-metadata/), exploring [native tokens](/docs/native-tokens/) or learning how to [operate a stake pool](/docs/operate-a-stake-pool/). It reflects the functionality of the current Cardano mainnet.

To get free test ada, you need to visit the [Cardano testnet faucet](../integrate-cardano/testnet-faucet).
