The test server is to be built as a virtual machine.
It's probably better not to use volume management for the root partition as it makes the task of growing disks more complex.
The vm should have a swap partition of around 5Gb, and a root partition. No other partitions are necessary.
An initial disk size of 60Gb is sufficient as expansion can be carried out when needed.
