## Test event payloads
22+
23+
With the Engage event tester, you can send a test event payload to a Destination. As a result, you can confirm that you've correctly configured Journey Audiences before you publish your Journey.

Follow these steps to send a test event:
26+
27+
1. From the **Send to destinations** window, select **+ Add destination**.
28+
2. Choose the Destination that you want to connect.
29+
3. In the Destination pane, select **Event tester**.
30+
4. From the **Event Type** dropdown, select the event you want to test. Segment generates a test user ID.
31+
5. Select **Send Event**, then view the test event results in the **Event lifecycle** section.
32+
33+
If your Destination successfully handled the event, Segment displays a `200 OK` HTTP status code along with the full response. If an error occurred, Segment displays any available details in the Event lifecyle section.
