I'm trying to finish off bitcoinj's implementation for sending to
taproot addresses. For this, I'd like to test against a wallet that can
receive to P2TR and spend back.
I've been trying to get a taproot address from Bitcoin Core 22.0 and
spent many hours, but in vain. Can someone please simply send my a
testnet wallet that has at least one taproot address? (I don't care
about anyone stealing my testnet coins, so don't worry about the
compromised private key.)
Thanks!

Hi Andreas,
You can construct a taproot-capable wallet in Bitcoin Core as follows:
* Have or create a descriptor wallet (createwallet RPC, with descriptors=true).
* Import a taproot descriptor (of the form "tr(KEY)"), as active descriptor (with active=true), where KEY can be a tprv.../* or any other supported key expression.
* Get a new address with addresstype=bech32m
I've also created one myself for testing: tb1p84x2ryuyfevgnlpnxt9f39gm7r68gwtvllxqe5w2n5ru00s9aquslzggwq
If you send testnet coins there email me an address, I'll return them.
Cheers,

Pieter

Running master (which has PR#21500 merged), then the above can be
done with:
1. create a descriptor wallet
bitcoin-cli -signet -named createwallet wallet_name=descwallet descriptors=true load_on_startup=true
2. get the associated bip32 tprv private key
TPRV=$(bitcoin-cli -rpcwallet=descwallet -signet listdescriptors true | jq '.descriptors | .[].desc' | sed 's/^.*(//;s/[)/].*//' | uniq | head -n1)
(This step requires PR#21500 to extract the wallet's tprv; you'll need to
be running an updated version of bitcoin-cli here as well as bitcoind. You
could also generate the tprv some other way.)
3. construct the taproot descriptor per BIP 86
DESC="tr($TPRV/86'/1'/0'/0/*)"
CHK="$(bitcoin-cli -rpcwallet=descwallet -signet getdescriptorinfo "$DESC" | jq -r .checksum)"
4. import the descriptor
bitcoin-cli -rpcwallet=descwallet -signet importdescriptors "[{\"desc\": \"$DESC#$CHK\", \"active\": true, \"timestamp\": \"now\", \"range\": [0,1000], \"next_index\": 1}]"
5. get an address
bitcoin-cli -rpcwallet=descwallet -signet getnewaddress '' bech32m
You can then use the signet faucet to send a few million ssats to that
address directly.
Same stuff works with testnet, though I'm not sure if any testnet faucets
will accept bech32m addresses directly.
This is all a bit deliberately cumbersome prior to taproot activating on
mainnet; once that happens and PR#22364 is merged, you'll only need to
do steps (1) and (5).
Cheers,
aj

There are faucets that accept such addresses, for example https://bitcoinfaucet.uo1.net/, but you have to use bech32 checksum instead of bech32m, for example sending to tb1p84x2ryuyfevgnlpnxt9f39gm7r68gwtvllxqe5w2n5ru00s9aqus27cytz works fine, but sending to tb1p84x2ryuyfevgnlpnxt9f39gm7r68gwtvllxqe5w2n5ru00s9aquslzggwq does not work. The same with pages like mempool.space, you have to use bech32 instead of bech32m, then you can send to taproot from some old faucets or browse taproot addresses from some old block explorers.

Hi Andreas,

I did this transaction few days back which creates a P2TR output while answering a question on Bitcoin Stackexchange: https://blockstream.info/testnet/tx/2035ead4a9d0c8e2da1184924abc9034d26f2a7093371183ef12891623b235d1
Pieter Wuille and Anthony Towns already shared things that would be helpful. Still wanted to share the steps I did for above transaction:
https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/a/108013/
TL;DR -
1.Create a blank descriptor wallet with private keys disabled
2.Import TPUB descriptor in wallet
3.Create new bech32m address
4.Send some bitcoin from another wallet
The answer could be improved if test vectors are added in BIP 86 for TPRV for follow things suggested by Anthony Towns in last email.
