  • Subject: Creating a Test Company based on Live Company Files
  • From: plynch@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Sunflower needs to syncronize the test environment with the live
environment on a weekly basis.
This need is extremely critical right now because we're testing SP3 for
3.5.2b.

Does anyone out there have, or know of, a utility that performs this task
cleanly?

Currently we have a program that runs a series of SQL statements that does
most of the job but it is not clean enough or reliable enough to permit a
full blown test. Part of the issue is the fact that not all files prefix
their company number fields with "CONO". During the copy we convert the
live company number to a different test company number so users are fully
aware when they are in the test environment.

We'd like to run the live and test side as close to parallel as possible to
facilitate efficient testing of this, and subsequent, service packs. Having
a reliable utility for this would really cut down on some of the pain of
uplifting.
