With Automation - how can I confirm the text of a pop-up that was triggered by a particular action? For example, if I attempt to create an Incident, do NOT fill in all required fields, and click submit, a pop-up message appears. Can automation confirm that the pop-up message contains the correct text? If the text in the pop-up should say "This field is missing data" - can automation confirm the UI pop-up message actually has that text in it?

Correct, currently there is no way to test that.
On the client side (visible data loaded in the browser window) ATF only provides a way to test some of the form functionality, there is no way to test how lists are loaded or the left nav items.

Automated Testing Framework currently doesn't provide a way to test system or code generated popups. It does provide a way to test popups generated using GlideDialogWindow call that uses a UI Page to present the content of the pop-up or modal. The modal can be tested using the 'Click Modal Button' action. Please see this article for usage details: Form test step: Click Modal Button .
To answer your second post: Neither. Open a New Form test opens the form for the specified table, it has nothing to do with the left hand navigation. Using this test step you can open a form to any table in the system, even if it doesn't have a module on the left. Click UI Action tests visible UI Actions (buttons, form links) on the form, please see this article for usage details: Form test step: Click a UI Action

So what you are saying is that there is no way to, for example, confirm that after clicking "Incident->Resolved" the next page that loads is the Incidents page and only Resolved Incidents are listed?

What about on the server side - can the UI links be tested from the back-end? (I only know about the client side, no idea what the server side is, but I assume it is the back end building the automation scripts manually with code?)
