Now that you're set up with your account in ''DevTest Labs'', it's time to test things out! You'll get a sneak peak at some of the work you'll be doing in this course, as well as ensuring you have full access to the course resources.
# In the ''DevTest Labs > OPS705-2207-NAA'' blade, click on '''My virtual machines'''.
# In this new blade, click the '''+ Add''' button to create a new item.
# The ''Choose a base'' page comes up. Give it a few moments to fully populate (i.e. load).
# Select the '''Web App''' item.
# In the configure blade pop-up, in the ''Environment name'' text box, enter: yourSenecaUsername-lab1 (substitute ''yourSenecaUsername'' with your actual Seneca username)
# You'll be sent back to the ''My virtual machines'' blade, and see a brief notification at the top of your window that your environment is being created. This can take a few minutes. A new notification will appear when creation is complete. It will also be added to your list of virtual machines momentarily.
# Once creation is complete, you'll see another notification. Otherwise, look for the ''Status'' of the new Web App to say '''Running'''.
