You can make a test installation of your community for you and your staff to test by appending -TESTINSTALL to the end of your license key. You can read more about it here:

Yes, you want to make a completely separate installation. This means uploading a copy of the software files again and also using a different MySQL database so that you don’t risk impacting your live installation. 

I personally would suggest using a separate hostname like test.mydomain.com as well.  That way if you need to delete/reinstall your test instance you won’t have issues with the license key saying it is already in use.

You need to download a full set of the IPB files and upload them to your site. Go back to you were with the applications listen and you’ll see at the bottom a button to install the ones you are missing. 

Thanks for reply . I am sorry i didnt understand . Need to install a full set or IPB or can insall just the missing applications?

You would upload the full file set to the location of your community on your server, overwriting what is there. Then go to ACP -> System -> Applications to install your missing applications.
