As soon as a milestone is released, you can either install it or test it in
a live environment.
Tests are intended to be done as soon as possibile so developers can have
enough time to fix the bugs.

If you want to test far from the milestone release, it's probably better to
have a full updated system to take advantage of latest bug fixes.

Tests are mostly hardware related, but It would be better to have a clean
system anyway, especially if personal configurations are about packages
related to hardware or hardware itself (e.g. kernel configurations).
