Secure Testing and Development[edit]

Develop locally, deploy globally[edit]

Develop and test your site on a local machine first. Installing Joomla locally is not as hard as it may sound, and the exercise will greatly boost your confidence.

Use an IDE[edit]

Consider using an Integrated Development Environment (IDE).

Use a versioning system[edit]

Be able to roll back to an earlier version of your site using a modern version control system, such as CVS, Subversion, or git.

More suggested tools[edit]

Check out the Joomla! community's list of popular Developer Software and Tools.

Go To Joomla Setup[edit]

When you're ready, continue on to Security Checklist 4 - Joomla Setup.
