  • An improvement to avoid bare IO in tests, allowing better error reporting in failed tests.
  • Generation of UTCTime test values without leap seconds (avoids erroneous test failures)
  • Support for signing transactions with GenesisDelegateSigningKey_ed25519_bip32.
• The cardano-api underwent multiple refinements:
  • Implementing deposit handling when balancing transactions (necessary for Conway)
  • Cleaning up socket file path code.
• Several changes were made to the cardano-testnet:
