The Administration module contains forms for configuring and managing the automated
test framework.
* **[Properties](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/CZE3CyRbBHjwd7CqM7RFqg)**   
  On the Properties form, you can set parameters that control how the system executes automated tests and test suites.
* **[Step configurations](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/SrZ5QAIv13bIBiFfC3BVBQ)**   
  Step configuration records define how each type of step behaves.
* **[Test templates](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/rdRWishofC5Dp6cEElvDKQ)**   
  The Test Templates module opens a list of available templates. From this module, you create, view, and edit test templates.
* **[Step configuration categories](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/UEjRNh3kTuq6Yjrz3w6Dzg)**   
  The Step Configuration Categories module opens a list of records specifying the step categories on the Add Step dialog. From this module, you can add, delete, and edit these categories.
* **[Table cleanup](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/c4o~T3LLARpa40a6oF9ajQ)**   
  The Table Cleanup module opens a list of records specifying the retention policies for test result and test suite result tables and the records within them. From this module, you can view and modify these policies.
* **[Step environments](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/7j_wtQDBGXH075~DImRBwg)**   
  A test step environment specifies where the step executes (for example, server versus browser). In this release, custom step configs can use only the Server-Independent environment.
