but i dont have a test site where i try it first.

i have live backup site.where i am working.should i try there or any test server u know?

A test site is quick to set up:
install XAMPP to get a webserver at your PC,
use Akeeba back-up to create a backup from your live site,
install that backup using Akeeba's kickstart.php on your local site.

You can probably do it yourself with this instruction:
Installing XAMPP: http://docs.joomla.org/Xampp
Moving a Joomla website: http://docs.joomla.org/Copying_a_Joomla_website
