What is SAP Cloud Integration, customer test service ?
This service offers you with specific regression testing for SAP Cloud Integration.
This test service mitigates the risk of business disruption caused by regression risk for custom built integration flows. It offers a preview tenant and testing of the integration flows as part of a customer specific regression test suite for every incremental software update.Refer

You can place an order for test service via
SAP Store. Remember to link this order with an existing CPI Contract Global Account to take advantage of the complimentary offering of preview tenant. We recommend you reach out to your Account Executive to place an order on your behalf.

What is Preview tenant ?
A preview tenant is a chargeable, non-productive tenant which receives the monthly increments with a week lead time to all other tenants. It means that you can access and test new or enhanced functionality a week prior to actual release timelines.
