Q: What SCPs am I allowed to test/cross-test on?

Q: What do the different parts of the test log form mean?
A: "Testing Procedures" is for describing how your test took place, what happened there, what did you notice. "Test Results" is for taking conclusions from your testing procedures, in short, you write a summary of what you learned from that test. "Evidence" is for screenshots/images/videos from your test.

Q: Can I take spectators for my test?
A: Make sure you know what your spectator limit is. You can find this in the Code of Scientific Research. Also, make sure your spectators have the right clearance to spectate the SCP you are testing on. The "Clearance" in the SCP Database is the clearance your spectators need. If cross-testing, then the SCP with the highest clearance level is the clearance your spectators need.
