Pricing: Free Testing Quota on paid plans
planned
Daniel Fascia
It is easy to "waste" a lot of credits during the building and testing of a scenario. It would be nice to be able to have testing credits for a non-live "build or test phase" scenario on paid plans. The number allowed could increase per plan size.
--------------------------------
HINT: When testing a scenario that processes large number of records, use test data containing just a limited number of records or limit the number of records during the scenario execution (see the attached screenshot).

I recently moved from Zapier to Integromat and love it. But I was surprised to find out that testing also eats up your credits. With Zapier, as long as you manually run a Zap during testing, the actions aren't counted. That being said, Integromat seems to be very fairly priced compared to Zapier and what you loose on testing, you probably save when live :-)

agree!

its one of the reason i have shifted some of my flows to n8n the amount of wasted cycled used just getting things working sometimes.

Yea, this would be nice. I can waste thousands of operations just on testing even I try to be as efficient as possible.

The idea of a "dev", "staging" and "prod" state to scenarios is definitely an enterprise grade feature that will be very much welcome by anyone who tries Integromat.
The natural question is what differentiates a dev, staging and prod states when in dev the full functionality is already evident. A dev scenario is working with production data and systems so what makes it "dev" rather than "prod"? I think there are a few things that can be turned off on dev/staging scenario:
- scheduling is off, so dev scenarios can only be run once, (staging scenarios can be scheduled and use operations!)
- dev scenarios have a set of modules that add "watermarked" operations -- eg any output is watermarked somehow in the JSON and added beyond the normal output -- could be easily applied when using an app like dropbox. Going to stage turns off the watermark.
- dev scenarios have a "lifetime" -- if they are not run for a certain amount of time they are archived and eventually deleted. Use it or lose it!
Just some top of the head ideas of course.
Daniel Fascia
Alex Sirota: It could be that dev scenarios automatically sleep after a period of time deemed reasonable for testing (1-hour maybe?)
Remy Reverie
Daniel Fascia: 1 Hour reasonable for testing? It's taking me days and weeks to get a particular scenario sorted out. More counting when an API was broken and they didn't mention it to anyone.

Testing right now is a very tricky process, and like Daniel, I am often using up a ton of operations as I try to troubleshoot the setup. See also this issue for optimizing the testing process: https://www.integromat.com/en/requests/feature-requests/p/run-module-only-with-real-data

Specialty Toys: I would also be ok with having a separate price for testing operations, if it came to that.
