Topic Description

[Deciding Which Applications to Test](deciding-which-applications-to-test.md)

Before starting your compatibility testing on the version of Windows that you want to deploy, you can use the Application Compatibility Toolkit (ACT) to identify which applications should be the focus of your testing.

[Creating an Enterprise Environment for Compatibility Testing](creating-an-enterprise-environment-for-compatibility-testing.md)

The goal of the test environment is to model the operating system that you want to deploy and assess compatibility before deploying the operating system to your production environment. Your test environment is composed of computers on which the new operating system is installed. Your test environment can be a long-term investment. Consider retaining the test environment after deployment to assist in future deployment projects.

[Creating a Runtime-Analysis Package](creating-a-runtime-analysis-package.md)

In Application Compatibility Manager (ACM), you can create runtime-analysis packages, which you can then deploy to computers for compatibility testing in your test environment.

[Deploying a Runtime-Analysis Package](deploying-a-runtime-analysis-package.md)

When you deploy a runtime-analysis package, you are deploying it to your test environment for compatibility testing.

[Compatibility Monitor User's Guide](compatibility-monitor-users-guide.md)

Compatibility Monitor is a tool in the runtime analysis package that you can use to monitor applications for compatibility issues. You can also use the Compatibility Monitor tool to submit compatibility feedback.
