- take a backup of your dev environment
- pull any updates from the upstream and apply them on dev
- run updatedb on your dev environment
- run clear cache on your dev environment
- check to see if your test environment initialized
- take a backup of your test environment
- run updatedb on your test environment
- run clear cache on your test environment
- check to see if youur live environment is initialized
- take a backup of your live environment
- run updatedb on your test environment
