Environment

Also called: environments, staging, staging environment, dev environment, development environment, test environment, preview, preview deployment

A separate copy of a system used for one purpose. Development is where changes are made. Staging is for final testing and should match production closely. Production is the live system real users see.

For example: A developer changes the checkout page in development, a tester tries it in staging, and customers see it only after it reaches production.
