Can you test both immediate and scheduled flow paths?

The correct answer highlights a key limitation within Salesforce's automation capabilities. In Salesforce, only immediate flow paths can be tested directly using the Flow Builder's testing feature. This allows users to validate the logic and operations of their flow in real time, ensuring that the immediate actions execute as expected.

Scheduled paths, however, cannot be directly tested in the same environment. This is due to how scheduled paths are designed to operate; they trigger based on certain time criteria or events, which makes real-time testing impractical. As such, while users can configure and activate scheduled paths, they have to rely on indirect methods to assess their performance, such as monitoring the results after execution or using debug logs to trace actions triggered by the scheduled flow.

Understanding this distinction aids users in designing and implementing flows effectively, ensuring they make the most of Salesforce's automation tools while recognizing the constraints that come with different flow types.
