Can I set up multiple deploy targets with Capistrano?

I have two servers up, one will be used for production, one for
testing stuff. I’d like to set things up so I can upgrade each one
independently. So I could type
$ rake deploy

That will update the test server. I do that, test it for a few
minutes/hours/days whatever, then I can put it onto the main server:
$ rake deploy_production

Is this possible? If so, how can I do it?

Some ppl has already done this…

Search the archives…

Capistrano doesnt support this out of the box (gem), so you need to do
some code yourself
