What is the point of a test account?

It is to share unfinished versions of your project that you don't want clogging up your main profile.

Or to put your online tests of larger games

Or, to put sample or test projects that you don't want on your main account online.

Test accounts are mainly to show the communtity what you are working on. If you don't want a quadrillion demos on your main account, you move them to a test account. Test accounts are also good for uploading your not-so-good projects.

See illusiont_extra for my test account.

I never upload demos or half-finished projects... so I don't need a test account. smile

Paddle2See has something similar... his other account is Paddle2SeeFixit. He uses the account to help other people (like downloading a project that has a problem, finds the bug and fixes it, and then uploads the fixed project for the person to get), but he also uses it for tests and not-so-good (in his opinion) projects.
