As described in the Business Space Versions and Version Control section a business space version can be put under test to verify that the version works as expected before making the version operational.
To test the business space version the configurator has to log into the system in the Operation Mode using the URL described in the Login section. The screen displayed by Aware IM includes the “Testing Mode” check box – this checkbox needs to be ticked to indicate that Aware IM should operate in the testing mode.
Using the application in the Operation Testing Mode is very similar to using the application in the regular Operation Mode. The main difference is that the operation data created when the application works in the Operation Testing Mode is stored in a completely separate database, so that the main data of the system is not affected by any operations performed in the testing mode. There are also some other relatively minor differences that are summarized below:

access level (see Predefined Access Levels) cannot log into the system in the testing mode. If one wants to test the Guest
access level while working in the testing mode the following can be done:RegularUser
object and set the value of its AccessLevel
attribute to 'Guest'
