Hello,
related to this...

Is there a policy about test certificates and CT logs? 

Sometimes it's required to do "negative tests" to check our systems and it can 
lead to a missisuance if a control fails, this typically would happen for a 
test certificate that is issued for a domain owned by the CA and revoked 
immediately after the test.

It's clear that first thing is to test with a dev environment, but sometimes 
it's required to do final validation tests in production, and, let's agree, 
"sh*t happens"

Now all these tests go public in the CT logs and are treated as any other 
misissuance, and I don't know if it was discussed here in the past some good 
practice for these test certificates and potential "controlled and inoffensive" 
misissuances. Maybe a CA could disclose some "sandbox domain", on which we can 
do tests without raising excessive concerns..

Thanks!
