You can use Test Management 2.0 for general testing such as testing a phase in a release, testing a set of features or products before their market launch. It also includes performing release readiness testing on integration and accessibility (for
new software).  
General testing comprises the following steps:

1. Creating tests. See [Create a test in Test Management 2.0](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/0atH5Vh3GNz2frdD0sOyvg "Create a test specifying conditions or steps to determine whether a feature is working correctly.")
2. Creating test sets, and grouping similar tests into a test set. See [Create a test set in Test Management 2.0](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/NgbKiO7x8dZkAgOsWNqpcA "Group related tests into a test set. Test sets help you find tests by category or tag.").
3. Using the Test Board feature to create a test plan. See [Create a test plan using Test Board in Test Management 2.0](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/ARYcqNq_qZhN6TO0Fl0b3A#create-test-plan "Define how to test a product or feature by creating a test plan.").
4. Structuring the test plan in the Planning tab of the Test Board.
   * Breaking down the test plan into test cycles to plan and schedule the phases of the testing effort. See [Add and modify test cycles and test execution suites in Test Management 2.0](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/8bbhaqYAP227Gn9iN_l22A "Add and modify test cycles and test execution suites from a single user interface without having to switch between multiple user interfaces and forms.").
   * Breaking down the test cycles into test execution sets to schedule tests, and assign users to run those tests. See [Create a test execution suite in Test Management 2.0](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/2GA5ja4P6DS3rxHP8puWHw "Create a short test plan when the testing effort is minimal. You can also use it when you want to avoid the overhead of creating a test plan and a test cycle for a test execution suite.").

5. Running tests and viewing the test run results. See [Run your test assignments in Test Management 2.0](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/YQEv227qh~bzch55eAFVyA "Run your test assignments and capture the results.").
