# Using a Test Environment
|
||
|
||
|
||
Before you request that a Group Policy Object (GPO) be deployed to the production environment, you should test the GPO in a lab environment. If you develop the GPO in a domain in a test forest, you can export the GPO to a file and import the file to a domain in the production forest. You can then test the GPO by linking it to an organizational unit (OU) that contains test computers and users.

||
- [Export a GPO to a File](export-a-gpo-to-a-file.md)
|
||
|
||
- [Import a GPO from a File](import-a-gpo-from-a-file-ed.md)
|
||
|
||
- [Test a GPO in a Separate Organizational Unit](test-a-gpo-in-a-separate-organizational-unit-agpm40.md)
|
||
|
||
**Note**
|
||
You can also import a GPO from the production environment of the domain. For more information, see [Import a GPO from Production](import-a-gpo-from-production-agpm40-ed.md).
