Build and Test the Application Under OpenROAD 5.1
Building and testing the applications under OpenROAD 5.1 are essential, but can be done quickly if you have prepared them properly. This process flags discrepancies that may have crept in between the source application and the live application.
Test the application first in the development area.
Note:  Any included images will need to be rebuilt. We recommend that you redefine all inclusions to be from the database during the conversion process; you can restore the image inclusions at the end.
Then build and deploy the imaged application in the test area, and repeat the testing.
The purpose of this testing is to establish whether the application code needs to be corrected, and whether the test environment is complete and valid. It does not need to do more at this stage.
Any problems encountered must be corrected or documented as being outside the scope of the upgrade before you continue.
