During the test, SpaceX loaded the Starship upper stage and Super Heavy booster with more than 4.5 million kilograms of liquid oxygen and methane propellants and went through a practice countdown without igniting its engines. The rehearsal was one of the last major testing milestones before SpaceX will be ready for an orbital launch attempt. Another upcoming test is a static fire of all 33 Raptor engines in the base of the Super Heavy.
