It includes key features introduced, changes made, activation instructions, and upgrade preparation tasks relevant across these releases. Show full answer Show less ## Key Upgrade Guidance * **Pre- and post-upgrade tasks:** Customers should review and complete necessary upgrade tasks before and after upgrading to Brazil. * **Quick start tests:** Across Yokohama, Zurich, and Australia releases, ServiceNow AI Platform provides quick start tests to validate instance functionality after configuration changes or upgrades. These tests pass only on base systems without customizations and with default demo data. Customers should copy and customize these tests to apply to their instance-specific data. * **Brazil release:** No updates or changes were introduced in the Brazil release for ATF. ## Key Features Introduced Between Yokohama and Brazil * **Reusable Tests (Yokohama):** Enables creation of modular, reusable test components to reduce duplication and testing effort across large test suites. Includes new test step category and input/output variable management. * **ATF Failure Insights (Zurich):** Provides actionable information to accelerate resolution of test failures. * **Configurable Workspace (Zurich):** Supports simplified test creation through direct component interaction on Configurable Workspace pages. * **ATF Code Coverage (Australia):** Offers metadata coverage visibility on custom scripts executed during test runs to evaluate test completeness and deployment risk. * **Run UI Test Script Step (Australia):** Enables execution of client-side test scripts directly in the browser, removing the need for server-side processing. ## Changes and Removals * **Coral Theme (Zurich):** Coral became the default theme for new portals and experiences, enhancing UI aesthetics with brand-neutral illustrations and offering a dark mode option. * No removals or deprecations of ATF features were reported between Yokohama and Brazil. ## Activation and Configuration * ATF is an AI Platform feature active by default; however, running automated tests requires enabling a system property (`snatf.runner.enabled`). * Tests should only be run on non-production instances to avoid data corruption or outages. * To use quick start tests, activate associated application plugins. * The ATF Test Generator and Cloud Runner are available as content packs in the ServiceNow Store and require enabling via system properties. ## Browser and Usage Requirements * ATF supports running tests only from desktop browsers; running tests from tablets, mobile browsers, or mobile UI is unsupported. * Test design capabilities are limited on tablets since they cannot retrieve components; existing custom UI test steps should be reviewed on desktop browsers. ## Benefits for ServiceNow Customers * Reduce upgrade and development time by automating testing and minimizing manual effort. * Design reusable tests once and apply them across different contexts and data sets to improve efficiency. * Maintain clean test instances by rolling back data and changes after each test run. * Organize and run tests in batches through test suites, and accelerate test creation using quick start tests and configurable workspaces.
