The Jungle TestNet has served as a sandbox for many development teams and EOS Block Producers since the birth of EOSIO. It played a cornerstone role in the EOS launch. As the network matures, it provides a reliable test environment for applications. The Jungle testnet helps with developing and testing applications before launch.

For this operation, you need to go to the Jungle Testnet site, the most well-maintained testnet by now. The first thing you need is to create private and public keys. This procedure can be done on "CLEOS" CLI or the website as shown below:

using cleos command line interface we can generate keys in this way:

When we have generated "keys," please be sure to save them in a safe location and proceed to the next step.

To generate your account, you need to proceed in the same way as in the "main" EOS network.

From the Jungle Testnet page, you need to select the Create Account option:

A new form Create account will be shown. You need to enter the account name and Owner/Active public key here. Use the generated owner/active keys.

After pressing the Create button, the account will be generated.

To import the account into your Anchor Wallet you have to configure it to use the testnet. Open the Anchor Wallet and select the option to Manage Blockchains. From the provided options select Jungle 4 (EOS Testnet).

Now we need to import an existing account into the Anchor.

Enter the private key we have obtained from the cleos command line interphase and click Import Account(s).

The account was found and now we are ready to manage the account with Anchor Wallet.
