How to test Evergreen - choosing test patrons and items

The most basic is to have a list of patrons and items. I had my staff pull about 8 names off the Holds shelf. I knew these would have activity on their cards. I also pulled up the accounts we use for Media Repair, Display, etc. These accounts would certainly trigger alerts because they have so many items in "lost" and hence big fines.

The items were just randomly chosen from the shelving cart - as we get more into this we will likely see more useful ones to test.

I printed these numbers up in very large Font and placed by both of the circ desks in very prominent places. This is in the hopes that seeing it will remind the staff to play with evergreen
