Finally, you're ready to test all the hard work you've put in to automating a VirusTotal analysis!

To test your VirusTotal automation:

1. Access the Swimlane workspace that hosts Suspicious Emails records.
2. From another browser tab, send another email to the address you indicated in the IMAP email asset you created at the beginning of this exercise. See [Create an IMAP Email Asset](docId\:CYAsb1Onh11jt83MaUU-n) for details.
3. **Tip!** Include a malicious IP address in the email, such as 123.123.123.123

5. Back in Swimlane, refresh the Suspicious Emails Default Report page, and then open the most-recent record.

6. Remember, you might have to wait up to a minute for the email to reach Swimlane and create the record.
7. Once you see the most-recent record, then you know that the automation worked! Now, let's test the integration button within the record.
8. In the record, make changes to the IP address in the **IP(s) from Body** field, and then click **Save.**
9. Test the integration automation by clicking the **Send IP to VT** button.
10. Review and note the changes to the VirusTotal section of the record.
11. Congratulations! You are now an automation professional. Enjoy the copious amounts of free time you now have since you'll be automating everything.
