TugboatQA.com is a service that allows for the deployment of
preview websites, generally for testing and quality assurance during
development. This module provides integration with Tugboat to allow creating
on-the-fly sites with the push of a button.
This module was originally built as a custom module for BackdropCMS.org where it
was used to allow people to demo a Backdrop site quickly and easily. It has been
re-written to use Tugboat's new API and to be more
generic (removing some of the Backdrop-specific wording, etc.).
To use this module, you'll need a TugboatQA.com account and a Git repository that
will be used to create the preview sites. See the
Tugboat documentation for more
details.
