 +===== Testing the Application =====
 +
 +At this stage we basically have the core of the application ready. There is still a fair amount of work to be done – polish up the user interface, add reports and documents, define access control rules. It is highly recommended, though, that in the process of application configuration these issues be tackled later. First we need to make sure that the core of the application is working fine before worrying about the more nitty-gritty details.
 +
 +So the next step is to test the application configured so far – we can check how the operations work, whether rules are executed as expected etc. Before we can start testing the application we need to put the business space version under test (see also the [[2000_concepts:1000_config_proc:0300_testing_mode|testing mode]] section). To do this right click on the business space version node in the Elements Tree and select "Put under Test" from the pop-up menu. At this point //**AwareIM**// will build all the required database tables and links between the tables. Once the version has been put under test, its state will be changed from ''New'' to ''Under Test'' and it will be displayed in pink.
 +
 +We now need to start using the system pretending to be the system’s operator. First of all we need to start the Internet browser and log into the system. We can do this by selecting "Tools/Browser Login" command in the menu of the Configuration Tool. //**AwareIM**// will start the default browser and display the login screen. We need to type in the name of our business space, ''admin'' as user name, ''password'' as password and tick the "Testing mode" checkbox. When we click on the "Logon" button //**AwareIM**// will start the application we have configured.
 +
 +We can now create a few items and members, borrow and reserve items, search for members and items and perform all other operations that we have defined. Note that all objects that we create during testing will be stored in a separate database, which means that if we had any real operation data it would not be affected by the testing data.
