Test Environment
Save time and ensure quality delivery by using the Test Environment to develop and evaluate program changes without impacting your live program.

Locating the Test Environment feature
Anyone in a Role with the Create Test Environment privilege can access this feature by opening the ADMIN menu and clicking on Test Environment:
How to setup a Test Environment
The Test Environment feature of PowerClerk allows you to create a copy of your current program to evaluate and implement changes to your live program without interruption.
The dialog shown in Figure 2 below offers you the option to include Roles from your existing program to allow them access to your new Test Environment. In addition, you can enter your own email-address, so any outgoing communication from this new Test Environment is exclusively sent to your inbox.
To start, give your new Test Environment a name and click the Create Test Environment button:
Once your new Test Environment has been created you will notice a yellow-grey banner indicating that you are working within a Test Environment. The overview of Program Changes lists any differences between your current main program and your Test Environment. Upon completion of your changes and thorough functionality testing, please visit PowerClerk’s Ticket System program and submit your commit request by selecting the option “I would like my Test Environment to be committed“. Alternatively you may select to discard your current Test Environment to start over with a completely new Test Environment:
Please note: Upon fulfillment of your commit request, all your edits within your Test Environment will be committed to your actual main program and this procedure is not reversible.
You can create only one Test Environment at a time and have to either discard or request the commit of your changes before creating a new Test Environment.
