Hi,

I’ve developed a project that uses the FlightAware API, but I want to perform extensive testing on it before it is fully deployed. Is there a test URL that I can make calls to, to avoid being charged for testing my program? It would be even better if this URL returned invalid data that followed the format of the actual data returned. (If it helps, my project mainly relies on the FlightInfoEx command.)

Unfortunately, there is no such testing environment available at this time.

What’s the status here? We would like to connect our dev and test env against some dev / test API. Thanks
