Upgrading, Licensing, Activation, Questions

Hi,
I'm currently using version 10.3.0 on a System Yosemite boot volume.
I paid the upgrade fee and downloaded Parallels 11.1.0-32202, but haven't installed it.

In preparation to upgrade from System Yosemite to System El Capitan,
i have an external boot volume set up for various testing on. I realize
that Parallels is licensed to the machine and not the user, so here is what
i need approval to do.

I want to temporarily install 11.1.0-32202 onto a virgin clean install system El Capitan
volume for windoze application testing, and usb device testing, for just a few hours, before I
do a permanent clean install (no migration-assistant migration). Then I'll erase that
test volume.

If all goes well, I want to permanently install 11.1.0-32202 onto a plain jane virgin System
El Capitan internal drive with no migration-assistant migration.

Questions. On my test drive, do I have to first install PD 10.3.0 and upgrade it, via the
recently downloaded 11.1.0-32202?
Upon installing 11.1.0-32202 onto a test System El Capitan drive, if I allow Parallels to
"phone home," will that impact my license upon erasing that temporary test volume then installing
11.1.0-32202 onto my permanent System El Capitan boot drive?
Otherwise, is there a way to get "approval" to do this?

or
any other guidance to help keep me from ruining my machine's license, will be most appreciated.
Thanks much.
 
Hi Specimen,
Thanks for reminding me, that there's a trial version.
One small problem occurred with this, upon clicking trial and
entering email address, the resultant web page, http://trial.parallels.com/processing/
returned this error,

Unable to create file

So, I tried the link with Google Chrome, Safari, Rocat, and Firefox
(all of which do downloads from unrelated to Parallels websites)
and got same error. Perhaps the webmaster might want to take a look.
Cheers
