Creating a Domino server test Environment

You will want to incorporate all the decisions that you have made up to this point and create a test environment that is representative of your current and target platforms, including hardware and software resources. Creating this environment is very important if you want to do any kind of performance or capacity planning.

For your basic test environment:

• Install the new Domino version.
• Create copies of applications.
• Use test IDs and access applications just as you would in production.
• Get access to all the templates and applications from your test server and customize them as needed.
