# Test Shipment Tracking

When setting up webhooks and notifications and adding new integrations, it can be helpful to preview the progression of shipment statuses and to test webhooks and customer-facing delivery notifications. By triggering status changes, you can observe simulated updates in Delivery Hub and confirm that your preferred channels have been updated.

## Before You Begin

- Contact your Bringg customer service representative to request access to tracking simulation.
- Set up [webhooks](/delivery-hub/docs/configure-webhooks) and customer-facing [delivery notifications](/delivery-hub/docs/configure-customer-notifications).
- Become familiar with Delivery Hub’s [statuses](/delivery-hub/docs/delivery-hub-statuses).

## Test Status Changes

**Step 1** Go to **Shipments** and select a shipment to test.

**Step 2** Select **S****imulate next status** to trigger advancement to the following status. For example, if the current status is **Out for Delivery**, the status will advance to **Delivered.**

![On the Shipments screen header there is a label with the shipment status. Next to that is a button that says Simulate next status. Click that button to simulate advancement to the next status.](https://cdn.document360.io/a18074ef-073a-4ab1-bcab-12625715280e/Images/Documentation/su-dh2_track_test_simulate.jpg)

**Step 3** To see the next status, reload the page.

**Step 3** Check your webhooks, SMS, or email inbox to confirm that updates have been received.

**Step 4** (Optional) Continue advancing the status until the shipment is marked as Delivered.
