      You can "test" a Script (Python) in the Workspace frame by
      clicking the *Test* tab from the Script's management screen.
      When you test a script, the output of the script will be
      displayed in your browser.  Script testing may require that you
      provide values for the script's *parameters* before you can view
      the results.  Click the *Test* tab of the SalesScript object,
      and you will see something like the following figure.
