Description
(13) Allow test releases in the same location as actual releases.
Right now, the Kepler module manager can be configured to look at a test-release location rather than the actual release location. However, this is not necessarily ideal because the resources available in the test-release location may not always be identical to the actual release location, or if it is, this requires maintenance and duplication of resources. A possible solution would be to create a flag of some sort (which might be indicated by the presence of a special file, for example) so that test-modules are not shown in the module manager, unless the user selects an appropriate check box or menu item. In this way, test modules would be guaranteed to have access to the same resources as released modules.

I have added new functionality to the module manager and the build to allow test release to be hidden by default, but displayed in the module manager by developers for testing purposes.
