It’s the start of something new! Every month, we’ll be featuring content from our Developer MVPs in a new monthly content spotlight. The Developer MVPs are a collection of ServiceNow developers who are passionate about ServiceNow and inspire other developers by sharing their extensive knowledge openly and inclusively.
Check out their awesome contributions:

The good stuff just keeps getting better! As if Automated Test Framework (ATF) wasn’t handy enough, we’ve improved it based on your suggestions in the Community Idea Portal to make debugging even better.
Background ATF is an in-platform tool to let you author and run functional tests on your apps (custom or OOB). Use it to ensure developer configurations work as expected before going to production and before/after upgrades. Once built, the tests are easy to run again and again.
With so many new features and enhancements in the San Diego release, it’s easy to miss some of the things in the tools we use every day. Join me as I talk to Chairn Lin, Sr. Principal Product Manager at ServiceNow about the developer tools and what’s new in San Diego.

Finding where I belong My ServiceNow journey began in 2017, when my boss at the time mentioned that he would have to find a ServiceNow Administrator to hire. I jokingly responded with “Nah, don’t worry about it. I can figure it out.” He laughed and said, “You’re on.”
Those two words would open up so many opportunities for me, but I had to put in the time to get there.
This week, we are continuing the San Diego Release Season content with new features centered around managing your development. These include source control, bulk adding to global bundles, and converting your app records.
So what’s new? Enhanced Source Control stashing: Previously, when you stashed changes there wasn’t much info available around the stash after the fact. The new enhancement provides more details.
Convert custom applications to upgrade from the application repository - Previously, if you had an application you installed into your production environment with update sets instead of the application repository, you would need to involve ServiceNow’s support team to convert the application to be able to receive updates through the app repo.
This week, we are continuing the San Diego Release Season content with new features in Integration Hub, an apt follow-up to last week’s Flow Designer topics. Yes, that’s Integration Hub, renamed from IntegrationHub. Why? Well, ServiceNow is moving forward with new features that will have similar naming and who doesn’t like a little bit of naming convention in the morning?
So, just like our comic books fans out there. For Spider-man, we “respect the hyphen!
Hey Fladvocates b Are you ready? Flow Designer has several new features in the San Diego release and I’ve got a product manager making another appearance to tell us all about it in this episode.

The San Diego release brings us many powerful and cool tools in Flow Designer. Please, stop asking the question “When is Flow Designer going to have parity with legacy workflows?” We are SO past that point. Let’s take a look at a few of the new capabilities you get with Flow Designer in San Diego.
Try Waaaaaay back in the Rome release (ok, last summer), we introduced a way to address failed flows, subflows, and actions with an Error Handler block at the bottom of the screen.
