Testing a Release
The ERO test release function executes the test area function against the final area of a release. You cannot block a release until all discrepancies between the final area and packages attached to the release are resolved.
If automatic cleanup is enabled in the release definition, then automatic cleanup is executed in test release the same as it is in test area.
