Forgive me to ask this silly question. I try to find some documents about how to develop and test something like class content
on local machine and then deploy them to remote live site. it seems nowhere to mention this? Doese Ez has some enviornments like development, test or production? What's the current similar solution. Thanks.

You can create a package containing the class (+some objects if you want) from the dev website and import it on the production website.

Thanks.. I will try this out, is it any other approach? Like traditional way for software developing, check out the files, modify them and check them in..

for the files (templates, images...), I use rsync over ssh.

You mentionned classes, that's stored in the database and the package is the easiest method IMO.

If you want to install a mirror of the dev database, just dump it, and copy it.

Don't forget the var of your siteaccess, it contains the files and images you've upload (clear the cache so you don't have to transfer it).

Also you can work directly on server via ftp ot sftp if you using tools like ZDE, Dreamweaver, Contribute.

Every time when you will save file, it will be transfered on server, but here it is good to disable cache on development time.

Look also on PHPEdit extension for eZ publish if you working on Windows platform.
