This question came from a member of the Persona community, an automation owner nervous about editing a Workflow that was already running in Production. This is useful for anyone changing a live Workflow.
Use Simulate, in a Sandbox environment. It runs a Workflow against a trigger object without touching production, either end to end or across only the segment you care about, and it lets you override a step’s inputs and outputs so you can exercise each branch rather than waiting for real data to take one.
For the walkthrough and its limitations, see Workflows testing strategies
