How do you set up a Testing Server?

Question

My Local and Remote settings have been working fine for years but

now I have the need to set up a Testing Server and I'm not sure

what to enter in the fields when editing my site. Attached are

my settings for Local, Remote and Testing. When I published to

the Testing Server this morning overwrote the Remote Server

and had to ask fat cow to restore my original site. Please advise.

Thanks.

That's not surprising. Although Dreamweaver lets you use a remote server as the testing server. It needs to be a real server, and it overwrites what exists on the server.

You don't say which server-side technology you're using, but there are detailed instructions on how to set up a PHP testing environment here: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/setting_up_php.html.
