Thanks to everyone who repsponded. The multistage module definately seems to be what I wanted...
I'm having trouble with the latest gem (v 1.2.0) though... I've set it up as explained at http://weblog.jamisbuck.org/2007/7/23/capistrano-multistage but I can't deploy to testing... production works, but the :deploy_to variable is not being set for testing... My deploy.rb: set :stages, %w(production testing) set :default_stage, "testing" require 'capistrano/ext/multistage' my deploy/production.rb and deploy/testing.rb are exactly the same (with change for deploy dir and svn repo) but when I "puts deploy_to" in production I get ~/rails_apps/ #{application}, but for testing I get /u/apps/#{application}, even though I have set the deploy_to in my testing.rb I'm pretty sure I haven't done anything wrong, but ready to be corrected...
