Hi Community,
We’d like to remind everyone of the value your feedback and observations bring to improving InterSystems products. Our customer support is world-famous, but if you're not a formal customer yet it can be confusing how to engage with us. We have now filled that gap.
Every time you notice an issue - whether it’s a broken feature, a UI glitch, or something that just doesn’t work as expected - the Ideas Portal is now also the way to submit bug reports.
***REMEMBER: If you have access to WRC, please submit the report via WRC as usual!***
Here’s how it works:
1. Go to the Ideas Portal and click Add a new idea
2. Provide the title, short description, choose “Bug reports” in the category field, and click Next

Hi Community!
We’re excited to announce a brand-new sweepstakes. This time, the theme is:
💡 Initial Developer Experience 💡

We want to hear your thoughts on how we can make the very first steps with InterSystems technologies smoother, clearer, and more inspiring. Whether it’s documentation, onboarding, setup, or tutorials, your ideas can make a real difference!
If you have already built unit tests using the %UnitTest framework, or are thinking about doing so, please take a look at InterSystems Testing Manager.
Without leaving VS Code you can now browse your unit tests, run or debug them, and view previous run results.
InterSystems Testing Manager works with both of the source code location paradigms supported by the ObjectScript extension. Your unit test classes can either be mastered in VS Code's local filesystem (the 'client-side editing' paradigm) or in a server namespace ('server-side editing').
