Acquia recommends that you test your non-production environments as soon as your application is upgraded to Cloud Next, so that you check whether your application works as expected. Otherwise, critical functionality on your applications and environments might be adversely impacted after your production environment upgrade is complete. For more information, see [Testing your environments upgrading to Cloud Next](/acquia-cloud-platform/upgrade-acn#testing-your-environments-after-cloud-next-upgrades).
