Step-by-Step Guide for New QuickStart-AI Testers
1. Preparing Your Testing Environment
1.1 Select the Appropriate UI Type Start by choosing the user interface that matches your requirements:
- UI 16 or Polaris: For traditional ServiceNow forms and workflows.
- Workspace: For modern, streamlined interfaces and complex use cases.
- Submit Forms: To validate workflow triggers and submissions.
- Validate Forms: To ensure field-level accuracy and preconditions.
- Scenario Creation Method:
- Create a new test plan for unique workflows.
- Add to an existing test plan for related scenarios.
- Test Plan Name: Use a clear naming convention, e.g., “AI: {SN} Test.”
- Assignment Group: Assign a responsible group for test execution.
2. Leveraging QuickStart-AI for Different Testing Needs
2.1 Automating Tests from Forms Begin with ServiceNow forms to validate workflows.
- Configuration Details:
- Select the table (e.g.,
incident,change_request).
- Select the table (e.g.,
- Choose the appropriate view (e.g., “Default View”).
- Navigate via menu items for specific scenarios.
- Test Plan Details:
- Select the catalog category and specific items.
- Choose a template record or create a new one.
- Include the fulfiller scenario for end-to-end testing.
- Add specific test steps like navigating the portal or selecting categories.

3. Maximizing Efficiency with Reusable Components
3.1 Use Predefined Test Blocks QuickStart-AI provides reusable test blocks for common tasks like:
- Login Management: Automate user authentication securely.
- Navigation: Preconfigure portal and menu paths to reduce redundancy.
- Be reused across multiple tests. Automatically update related tests when changes occur.
4. Optimize Your Testing Workflow
4.1 Continuous Testing Schedule regression tests weekly to proactively identify issues.
4.2 Use Upgrade Comparison Reports Compare pre- and post-upgrade functionality to:
- Highlight critical defects.Prioritize fixes for seamless upgrades.
- Efficiency Gains: Automated tests run faster, reducing time from weeks to hours.
- Comprehensive Coverage: Reusable libraries expand test scenarios, increasing accuracy.
- Improved ROI: Faster upgrades and fewer defects reduce costs and enhance performance.
