Certification Self-Test Tool

Certification Self-Test Tool helps you to test your applications prior to submitting them for certification. This will be an in-instance experience and will let you run a suite of automated tests developed by our certification team against your scoped application. This won't be all our tests for certification, some of those require a more contextual analysis and conversation with you, but this will help you address the ~80% of the commonly discovered issues we find in the first few iterations of the certification process. It will produce a result set that you can use to determine how close your application is in terms of readiness for certification.
