Configuring different test environments about ask-netlify HOT 2 CLOSED

Thanks for the question @tmhn!

We'll answer this more fully in an upcoming recording, but for the moment, I think what you are looking for is our branch deploys option.

By creating a branch in your github repo, and telling Netlify to build that( or all branches), you can have Netlify deploy different versions of site onto a subdomain which matches your branch name.

Each branch effectively becomes its own "as production" environment and is the perfect way to create staging, testing, etc environments.

Merging your branch to master then deploys to production.

You can also use deploy previews in a similar way to deploy pull requests and review them before deciding whether or not to merge them to your master branch.

More info in the docs for branch and deploy previews

Interesting idea about having a build status readme badge. I wonder if we could easily use the API to drive those. I'll think about that a little!
