High-level Summary

This week, the team made finally progress on the model based testing framework (and reproducing a bug) by fixing issues related to fully validating Cardano transactions. They also enabled continuous deployment of hydra-explorer to http://explorer.hydra.family/heads, facilitating easier access for users. Furthermore, they improved code quality by incorporating Haskell linting into their CI workflow and addeda user-ished conversion of HeadId to CurrencySymbol.

What did the team achieve this week

  • Added Haskell linting to our CI workflow - Minor addition to convert HeadId into CurrencySymbol #919
  • Reviewed a small refactor PR on our model-based test runner #1300

What are the goals of next week
