Double spend attempts examples on testnet?

Where can I find some double spend attempts examples on testnet? Can anyone refer me some TXIDs with double spends on testnet?

EDIT: I need some example in which an outpoint was intended to be used in two different transactions, like this one:

https://blockchain.info/tx/6900440e3bf9d7177ef69b8ca8bb620cb439d9261ce54b3df564f6778547003c

but on the testnet.

What does you mean? Bitcoins cannot be double spent.Zergatul 2014-02-10T17:25:26.610

I assume you mean a situation where two conflicting transactions appeared in close succession?Nate Eldredge 2014-02-10T17:30:50.713

2A double spend wouldn't persist itself in the chain, as the longest chain will cause that double spend to be invalid.goodguys_activate 2014-02-10T18:25:53.583

@makerofthings7 right. I want to mark the surviving transaction as a 'double spend' attempt, just to alert the userematiu 2014-02-10T18:34:37.530

There are multiple temporary chains. In that case you will need to monitor each chain and derive your use case in your app... I don't think that the temporary chains are kept permanently and are purged over time.goodguys_activate 2014-02-10T18:43:22.693

Invalid transactions are not kept as part of the blockchain; they are, after all, invalid. Your best bet might be to listen to the chatter on the network (you'd require a custom-written client for this, I would imagine).
