- You must complete the Firebase setup for the new environment before you can test your app using that environment. However, this doesn't stop you from continuing to run and test your app in other environments.

It’s important to note that the **Development Environments** feature in FlutterFlow is primarily designed to configure different backends for testing

If you are building new features, you should consider using [**Branching**](../../../testing-deployment-publishing/branching-collaboration/branching.md). You can develop and test new features on a new branch by selecting a development environment. Once tested, you can merge the branch into `main` and switch to the `Production` Environment to go live.
