After you've completed customizing the templates and the search form, you can test them in your Web browser by pointing to the search form URL and entering a search string. See Section 1.5, Taking a Test Run: Performing a Search for information about how to access the QuickFinder form.
Remember that a search cannot be performed until you have defined at least one index and generated it using QuickFinder Server Manager. See Section 5.5, Creating Indexes and Generating Indexes for more information.
