Beta instance?

Migrating from WordPress, and tried different commenting systems, remark42 is by far the best, support of anonymous commenting, migration of existing comments, running fast with low system usage, small footprint on the client side, not needing a huge database to store comments, etc. All design decisions seem to be the best ones (Or at least align with my preferences! :D). So, thanks a lot for remark42 (All I could do was to become a sponsor here on github, not much, just showing appreciation!)

As I am migrating, I have created a beta domain, beta.mydomain.com, and am testing with it, until I am ready to change my DNS and switch over. So, had to migrate comments and change URLs, to go from my old urls to the new beta ones, and later have to do it again for the actual domain.

I was wondering if anyone is running a BETA system along side their PROD one. I think that would be useful for testing the latest version of remark42 for instance. I saw that you can run multiple SITEs in one instance, but that won't help with testing of new code. I tried using the master image (instead of latest) and saw some issues with image sizes?

Would the best way be having two docker instances, one for PROD and one for BETA? Ideally, I'll leave a beta domain up, connected to the beta instance, and test everything there.
