How can PHP developers test the effectiveness of their URL redirection code before deploying it on a live website?

To test the effectiveness of URL redirection code before deploying it on a live website, PHP developers can create a test environment using a local server or a staging server. They can then modify the code to redirect URLs in the test environment and verify that the redirection works as intended. This allows developers to catch any errors or issues before deploying the code to the live website. 

<?php
// Redirect to a test URL for testing purposes
$test_url = "https://example.com/test";
header("Location: $test_url");
exit;
?>
