Creating a staging branch

Once you complete the development branch and the test cases are successful, you can move the branch to the STAGING section. This is the pre-production section. Here, the new feature will be tested with a copy of the production database. This will help us to find any issues that might be generated in the production database. To move from the development branch to the STAGING branch, just drag and drop the branch into the STAGING section:

Once you move the DEVELOPMENT branch to the STAGING section, you can test your new development with production data. Just like any other build, you can access the STAGING branch with the CONNECT button on the right. The only difference is that you will be able to see the data of the production database, in this case. Here, your development module is only upgraded automatically if you have increased the module version from the manifest. If you haven't changed the module version, you will need to upgrade the modules manually to see the new features in action.

The staging branch will use a copy of the production database, so the staging instance will have real customers and their emails. For this reason, in the staging branch, real emails are disabled so that you don't send any by accident when testing a new feature in the staging branch.
