We are pleased to announce the first public release of Akamai Test Center (ATC) - a first-of-its-kind testing tool that can help increase your confidence in the safety of configuration updates on your web properties.

Akamai Test Center uses a browser to make both production and pre-production requests for the same URL, and then compares the responses of the objects that are returned to the browser as a result (typically, a web page plus embedded objects). It highlights any differences in the results. You can review them and accept the ones which are expected, and investigate the ones which are not expected as they may be indicative of a problem that needs to be fixed before activating. As the number of outstanding diffs decreases, your confidence in the safety of the configuration update increases.
