As you know, the good news is that https://www.drupal.org/project/pm/issues/3345676 is now resolved and Drupal PM successfully work on simplytest.me Joy :)
The first challenge is that for newcomers to Drupal PM, this present project page at https://www.drupal.org/project/pm/ does not include a link to the simplytest.me demo.
The second challenge is that, for newcomers to Drupal PM, simplytest.me might be out of their present reach. Because on this form https://simplytest.me/ there are lots of fields to configure appropriately to be able to launch a successful demo.
How to resolve those two challenges above? For your consideration and for your decision, down below is my quick and easy suggested resolution. By "quick" I mean, for other past projects at Ubertus, this resolution took us less than 5 minutes. Minus our initial one time learning curve.
1. As newcomer and end-user of Drupal PM (PM), go to https://www.drupal.org/project/pm
2. On this project page above, search for a link to a demo of PM. There are none. This is the first challenge.
3. Go to https://simplytest.me
4. As newcomer to both https://simplytest.me and PM, try to manually configure this page above to launch a PM demo. Risk is really high that the launch will fail. Because only the 4.1.x-dev works. Others won't this is expected. But newcomers do not know this. Most likely, newcomer will give up after their first failure.
On PM project page at https://www.drupal.org/project/pm/ add a link to https://simplytest.me/configure?project=pm&version=4.1.x-dev
This simplytest link above will automatically appropriately configure the simplytest form. Easy. End-user just need to click on the Launch button.
As you probably know, when editing this project page above, there is a field to add external link and test on the link. In that field, simply paste this URL. Done. Easy. Quick.
The number 2 in this screenshot below shows the Demo field to edit at the PM project page.
The number 1 in this screenshot below shows the end result
In the future, when PM has a new version released, I suggest periodically updating the link above appropriately. For example:
From:
https://simplytest.me/configure?project=pm&version=4.1.x-dev
To:
https://simplytest.me/configure?project=pm&version=4.2.x-dev

francewhoa@d34dman, This is to confirm that both the link and the action button you added successfully work 💚
Good idea the green action button. For newcomers this is likely easier to find and use than the link.
@All, For those not familiar with that link and button this screenshot below shows their location.
