I'm building an application on bitcoin and want to use testnet instead of using real bitcoins to do my test. I'm mainly using Electrum-3.1.3 to do sweeping of addresses. But how can I switch this to be on the testnet chain instead?
How to get Electrum 3.1.3 on bitcoin testnet?

If you are using Mac OSX then open terminal an jump to: /Aplications/Electrum/Contents/OSX there you need to run: & ./Electrum --testnet

If you install Electrum on Windows, you will have two programs you can start. One of them is called "Electrum Testnet".
