A test environment acts as a resource for the execution of the test cases on a software product. It fulfils all the pre-requisite needed in the test execution such as hardware and software requirement, tools and frameworks, system and devices, etc. It is mainly created to simulate the real world environment to test the functioning, behaviour and response of a software application in the real world conditions and factors.
A properly set up and well equipped test environment ensures the good productivity of the testing process. Thus, we are listing out some of the important elements, key aspects in the checklist format, which may be considered and used, while setting up the test environment.

The above given checklist is just an overview, which provides and reminds the testing team about the necessary things, required for successfully setting up the test environment. However, depending upon the requirements and necessity, this checklist may be modified, accordingly.
Test Environment Checklist as a documented artifact ensures the testing team that all the pre-requisites required for setting up the test environment have been completed and nothing has been left to consider and implement. This ensures the successful set up of the expected test environment to carry out efficient and effective execution of the testing activities.
