Question on: ProdPerfect
Can developers use ProdPerfect to test on feature branches before merging to staging/QA?
In short, it depends how your pipeline is set up, but generally yes. ProdPerfect deploys end to end test suites, so you’ll need some form of stable environment to spin up for testing. You can do this during a pull request before the merge to a higher-level branch; often, using an ephemeral testing environment such as Heroku Review Apps is the way to do this as part of an automated deployment. If you have static pre-production environments, you can run ProdPerfect on developer environments as a pre-merge test.

Question on: ProdPerfect
What if we don't have a staging environment and/or what if we use ephemeral environments spun up?
If you’re deploying to ephemeral or isolated environments, that’s fine. You’ll work with our Delivery Engineers to have your CI point our test suite at the ephemeral environments when they spin up, using the right script. Just as you would with an automated test suite you deployed yourself.
If you’re deploying to production directly, you may want to work with us to make sure you can launch your application in a stable dev environment, or work with us to test on production.

Question on: ProdPerfect
What if I don’t have a CI?
You can run the test suite manually. You can also ask us to run the test suite at a set frequency from our own servers at no extra charge.
