Release version: Brazil  
Updated October 13, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Review the request type, its inputs and output, and the request definition that selects the adapter flow that runs a test against an external system.

## Request type {#service-test-request-spoke-selector__service-test-request-contract}

The spoke selector uses the Service Test Request as a contract between a test run and the adapter flow that runs it. The contract requires the plugin com.sn_appss. See [Plugins installed with Service Test Management](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/Qs8One~cB18gRXIUQRdk1w "Review the plugins that Service Test Management requires and the optional plugins that add characteristics, test decomposition, and conditional test groups.").
{#service-test-request-spoke-selector__table_stm_request_type__entry__3}

| Name | Type | Description |
|-|-|-|
| Table Name (input) | String, up to 200 characters | The table of the record that the request is about. For a test run, the value is sn_st_mgmt_test. |
| Request Body (input) | JSON, up to 4,000 characters | The details of the test to run. |
| Response Body (output) | JSON, up to 4,000 characters | The response of the adapter flow. |
[Table 1. Service Test Request]

The demo adapter simulates a result without an external system, so you can try the framework in a sandbox. To run tests against your own external system, you create a flow from the template and register it as the adapter. See [Service Test Management automation framework](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/2W5Dv_R8dQGXdbTyPEtq8Q "Service Test Management uses flows and subflows to run tests in the background. Events, a spoke selector, and templates start and extend them. You can add your own flows and extension points to customize the behavior.").
