AladinCoin is an experimental new digital currency that enables instant payments to anyone, anywhere in the world. AladinCoin uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money are carried out collectively by the network. AladinCoin is also the name of the open source software which enables the use of this currency.
For more information, as well as an immediately useable, binary version of the AladinCoin client software, see http://www.aladincoins.com.

Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull requests than we can review and test. Please be patient and help out, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people lots of money.
Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code, and to submit new unit tests for old code.
Unit tests for the core code are in src/test/. To compile and run them:
cd src; make -f makefile.unix test
Unit tests for the GUI code are in src/qt/test/. To compile and run them:
qmake BITCOIN_QT_TEST=1 -o Makefile.test aladincoin-qt.pro
make -f Makefile.test
./aladincoin-qt_test
Large changes should have a test plan, and should be tested by somebody other than the developer who wrote the code.
See https://github.com/aladincoin/QA/ for how to create a test plan.
