# Testing Your Workflow

> Preview results safely — at the node or full Workflow level — before running at scale.

## What It Does

Nrev gives you two ways to test:

* **Node-level testing** — to check outputs at each step
* **Workflow-level Test Mode** — to validate the entire flow with real data (capped at 5 rows)

Both options help you debug and refine before running a Workflow in Standard Mode.

***

## 🔍 Node-Level Testing

You can test any individual node in isolation. This is useful when:

* You're fine-tuning a specific step
* You want to validate enrichment, scoring, or transformations one at a time

</Frame>

<Tip>
  Use node-level tests while building — it’s faster and avoids re-running the full Workflow.

## 🧪 Workflow-Level Test Mode

This runs the entire Workflow using **up to 5 records per node**.

It helps you:

* Validate the full logic across nodes
* Spot empty outputs or config gaps
* Preview how final data will look

## ✅ Good to Know

| Feature      | Node Test       | Workflow-Level Test Mode    |
| ------------ | --------------- | --------------------------- |
| Scope        | Single node     | Full Workflow               |
| Credit usage | ❌ Free          | ❌ Free                      |
| Best for     | Debugging steps | Validating logic end-to-end |

<Warning>
  Test Mode always runs with a 5-record cap.\
  For large datasets or grouped behavior, use Standard Mode.
</Warning>

***

## Common Use Cases

<Tip>
  Use testing to check:

  * If enrichments or lookups return results
  * Whether filters, conditions, or splits behave correctly
  * That scoring or ranking logic is firing as expected

## FAQ

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Can I test without using credits?">
    Yes — both node tests and Workflow-level Test Mode are completely free.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Why only 5 rows in Test Mode?">
    It's optimized for speed and safety. Standard Mode will lift this cap.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Do test results get saved?">
    Yes, but they’ll reset if you modify the Workflow. Just re-run to refresh OR download outputs from the run logs!
