 #### Testing the changes
 In order to test the changes locally you can use helmfile command to install the component in your cluster. You can make installation faster if you only select your component to install:
 ```
-helmfile sync --file helmfile.d/name-of-the-helmfile.yaml --selector name=name-of-the-component
+helmfile apply --file helmfile.d/name-of-the-helmfile.yaml --selector name=name-of-the-component
 ```
 You can also use other the helmfile commands like `helmfile template` and `helmfile diff` to see what is being applied to the cluster.
