Verify the application meets your business requirements. Your testing should cover
record operations (such as create, read, update, and delete), user interface elements (such as
views and UI policies), runtime operations (such as business rules), and event script
actions.

## Testing and debugging on Core UI {#testing-and-debugging-applications__section_testing_debugging}

[Automated Test Framework (ATF)](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/x4Tg~gX3EeFqtF9ohWlMNQ "The Automated Test Framework (ATF) enables you to create and run automated tests to confirm that your instance works after making a change. For example, after an upgrade, during application development, or when deploying instance configurations with update sets. Review failed test results to identify the changes that caused the failure and the changes that you should review.")
:   Create and run automated tests to confirm that your instance works after making a
    change. Review failed test results to identify the changes that caused the failure and
    the changes that you should review.

[Debugging scripts](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=script-debug-overview&version=australia&pubname=australia-api-reference&ft:locale=en-US)
:   Debug scripts using session logs and ServiceNow AI Platform debugging tools, such as a
    walk-through script debugger and error messages that display in the UI.

[Script Debugger and Session Log](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=script-debugger&version=australia&pubname=australia-api-reference&ft:locale=en-US)
:   The Script Debugger enables users with the script_debugger role to debug
    server-side JavaScript, while the Session Log enables you to view and download
    required logs.

[Script Tracer and debugging scripts](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=script-tracer&version=australia&pubname=australia-api-reference&ft:locale=en-US)
:   Use the Script Tracer to filter your debugging search and quickly narrow down script
    problems. Finding specific lines of scripts, rather than doing a wide search, helps save time
    and improves productivity.
