I use git as the version control system for a Shiny app. I have a development branch and a master branch. I generally make changes on the development branch and, when I have worked out any bugs, merge those changes into the master branch and the deploy to shinyapps.io. However, I'd like to have a testing version of the app on shinyapps.io that use the current state of the development branch. Is it possible to have it set up so that, when I am on the master branch, the app deploys to the production location on shinyapps.io, but when I am on the development branch, the app deploys to the testing location on shinyapps.io?

Do you deploy out of RStudio or github? [Here](https://jarrettmeyer.com/2019/04/25/publishing-to-shinyapps-github-travis-ci) is an article how to deploy directly from github, maybe this can be tweaked for the master and the development branch – starja Oct 24 '20 at 07:33

@starja I usually deploy out of RStudio, but I will check out that link to see if deploying from github will solve my issue. Thanks. – Paul de Barros Oct 24 '20 at 11:54
