    Thanks. The article shows how to download it. But after download how I can test the code to see if it works against that version or not. Sorry I have no development background.

    Then the best way is to run your testing in a Docker contaner.

    You can read more about that here:

    And good luck with becoming an AL developer!

    Hi, If you are a MS Partner, you can follow NorthW's method and use docker to download the images of next minor and next major, and then use VS Code to test your customization.

    If you are not Parnter, you can only use the SaaS Preview version (usually release one month in advance) to test your customization.

    Hope this will help.

    Thanks.
