Do you use a "test site" for development?

I'm curious how other people out there go through the development process. Do you maintain a separate test site where you modify and test your code and then migrate it to the "live" site? Or, do you just use the "store closed" contribution and plow ahead with your changes?

 

I'm up live and I'm looking at putting in some new, fairly sizeable contributions. I'm afraid that the implementation of these may take a little time and I don't necessarily want the live site to be down that long. On the other hand, getting another, parallel test site seems a little excessive if I'm only going to use it a few times a year.

 

Anyway, I just want to see how a few of you experienced users handle that.

 

Thanks!

add a second store...never test on your store

 

I have 3

 

1. Live Store

 

2. Test Store (wish I had a nickel for everytime this one got the "white screen of death")

 

3. An original, clean install...never know when your gonna need it
