I didn't mean to question your competence what i'm getting at is small real world testing is the best way forward in my opinion. Your learn a lot more about Google Base by some real life handling of items and accounts. Once this is done you can scale and scale.
Listing items under dummy domains with test data will more than likely see your items disapproved, because data and items are review by Google Base Content Specialists. In the case of products you must have a fully commerce enabled site with isn't something thats just made up.
