It is designed to help ServiceNow customers prepare for upgrades by summarizing new features, changes, activation instructions, and important considerations related to ATF. Show full answer Show less ## Important Upgrade Information * **Zurich and Australia releases:** Customers should copy and customize quick start tests provided by the ServiceNow AI Platform to validate their instance functionality after configuration changes or upgrades. These tests pass only on base systems with default demo data, so customization for instance-specific data is necessary. * **Brazil release:** No updates or changes to quick start tests or upgrade procedures were introduced. ## New Features * **Zurich:** Introduction of ATF failure insights to help reduce resolution time for test failures through actionable support, and Configurable Workspace enhancements enabling easier test creation via direct component interaction. * **Australia:** Added ATF Code Coverage to view metadata on custom script execution during test runs, aiding in identifying untested code and assessing deployment risk. Also introduced the Run UI Test Script step to execute client-side scripts directly in the browser without server processing. * **Brazil:** No new features added. ## Changes and Theming * **Zurich:** The Coral theme became the default for new portals, web, and mobile experiences with Next Experience or Core UI enabled, offering a fresh, brand-neutral look along with a dark theme option. * **Australia and Brazil:** No changes reported. ## Removed and Deprecated Features No features or functionalities were removed or deprecated in any releases between Zurich and Brazil. ## Activation Information * ATF is active by default as part of the ServiceNow AI Platform, but the system property to run automated tests is disabled by default to prevent accidental test execution in production environments. * Customers must run tests only in development, test, or other non-production instances to avoid data corruption or outages. * Activating quick start tests requires enabling the related application plugins. * Setting the `snatf.runner.enabled` property to True activates the ATF Test Generator and Cloud Runner content pack, which is available from the ServiceNow Store. * No activation changes were made in the Brazil release. ## Browser Requirements * ATF supports running tests only from desktop browsers; tablets, mobile browsers, and mobile UI are not supported for test execution. * Some desktop browsers may require additional configuration for optimal use. * Limited support exists for test design on tablets, but adding new custom UI test steps is not supported on tablets due to component retrieval limitations. * These requirements remained consistent through Zurich and Australia releases with no updates in Brazil. ## Additional Notes * There were no updates or changes regarding additional requirements, accessibility, or localization for ATF in any of the releases. * Key benefits highlighted include reducing upgrade and development time by automating tests, reusing test designs with varied data sets, maintaining clean test instances via rollback, creating and scheduling test suites, and reducing test design effort by leveraging quick start tests.
