In short, during the Puritan times, it was forbidden for people to commit adultery. When John Proctor says that he "has known her," he sacrifices his innocence to prove that Abigail is causing this hysteria over a love affair.
John Proctor forget's adultery in the Ten Commandments, this is ironic considering John committed adultery with Abigail Adams.
It's ironic because he does not remember the commandment he is guilty of (adultery from sleeping with Abigail)
John Proctor forgets the commandment he broke. He forgot "Thou shalt not commit adultery" which he did when he had an affair with Elizabeth.

what is ironic about the ending of act 111

Black mischief is sneaky, so the trials were sneaky. The irony is that his affair with Abigail was sneaky and unfair. So, he shouldn't be criticizing the trials.
It is ironic because Abigail is actually manipulating Mary for her own gain, not out of true charity. Abigail is pretending to act selflessly while she is actually acting out of self-interest.
John Proctor is a farmer in his mid 30s. He does not like hypocrites which is ironic because he is a voice of reason against the hysteria in the community. When speaking to others, he is very good at drawing resentment out of them. He is a sinner through many a mans' eyes. About 8 months before the time that this play is taking place, he had engaged in a relationship with Abigail, a strikingly beautiful, chaotic, and stubborn 17 year old. In summary, John Proctor is a gloomy soul, witty yet not much sense of humor, and a hypocrite himself. I hope this helped:)

No (that was ironic).
Elizabeth's intention in lying about John's affair was to protect him and their reputation. The irony in her lie is that her dishonesty ultimately leads to more conflict and distrust in their relationship. This type of irony is situational irony, where the outcome is different from what was expected.
The tone was ironic
The Epigram is fairly ironic.
John Proctor says this ironic statement about witchcraft trials to his wife, Elizabeth, in Arthur Miller's play The Crucible. Witchcraft was known as "black mischief" as in black magic, but he felt it was the witchhunting trials that were a stain on their community.
