Sandbox Environment
Sandboxes are digital testing environments that enable users and developers to experiment with BB functionalities and interfaces. The GovStack Sandbox will be the testing ground for software products from general market compliant with the building blocks’ specifications.
The GovStack initiative will build prototypes of six e-government services in the Sandbox and illustrate how the building block approach can be put into practice. The sandbox will be publicly available and enable anyone to understand and experiment with building block implementations. The sandbox will be made replicable to enable others to build up their own integrated testing environment.
