Today, April 2nd, 2025 was the date of the kick-off for the Cardano/Antithesis project. Already involved in testing and monitoring the Cardano network infrastructure, the [Cardano Foundation](https://cardanofoundation.org) has decided to dedicate resources to evaluate if and how [Antithesis](https://antithesis.com) could increase the reach and level of quality assurance the network needs.

Since our [kick-off meeting](./2025-04-02-kick-off-antithesis.md) that took place on April 2nd, Cardano Foundation and Antithesis have been busy working on a Proof-of-Concept aimed at evaluating Antithesis's capability to enhance Cardano's testing infrastructure. The results have been promising, with the platform successfully identifying both previously known and new unknown bugs in the cardano-node.

Our exploration with Antithesis began in January 2025, when we first made contact with their team. Quite excited with the prospect this tool offered for testing existing and feature core components of the Cardano network, a small team was assembled within the Cardano Foundation to work on a Proof-of-Concept with Antithesis team. This project was kicked-off on April 2nd at which point both teams started to collaborate actively to understand how to best use the platform to test cardano-node.
