Can ATF be used for testing the ServiceNow Upgrades

[aya elkappany]

I want to use ATF module for testing ServiceNow Upgrades, it is applicable for UI testing ?

Yes, ServiceNow's ATF (Automated Test Framework) module applies for UI testing.

You can do much more to ease your productivity through ATF in ServiceNow, 
You can test things Like:

1. Basic UI Functionality - Navigation, Forms Interaction, Buttons and UI Action Visibility

2. UI Policies and UI Actions - We can test to ensure they still trigger correctly after the upgrade.
3. Form Validations - Field value population correctly, Fields available on the form
4. Catalog Items and Workflows/Flows
5. Notifications
6. Dashboards and Reports

Topic:  update clone down process to include ATF
I need to 'exclude' ATF during a clone down from PROD so that the info isn't overwritten.

What tables I can include in during the clone down process?

What measures should be taken to back up Tests configurations and results before a clone operation?
