Read time 1 minuteLast updated 3 days ago
You can manage test allocations from the Unity Dashboard. Test allocations give you a way to quickly make an allocation request. This is useful for testing your game server while you are developing it and don't have a matchmaker configured yet. Both a test allocation and normal allocations behave the same way. A test allocation additionally has tracking information allowing it to be shown on the Unity Dashboard.
