# Australia Early Availability

The ServiceNow® Automated Test Framework enables you to create and run automated tests to confirm that your modified instance works correctly.

Review failed test results to identify the changes that caused the failure and the changes that you should review. Automated Test Framework was enhanced and updated in the Australia release.
