# Deactivate Test Akto provides you with a feature to deactivate the custom test. It ensures that users don't encounter any inaccurate or obsolete results, thereby maintaining the integrity of the security testing process.

In the demonstration below, we have deactivated the test named **“Broken Authentication by removing the auth token.”** Go to the **Test Editor.** Select a **Custom test** from the **Custom Test Collection** that you want to deactivate. Click on the **“x”** button to inactive the test. {% embed url="" %} In the above demonstration, we have deactivated the test named **“Broken Authentication by removing the auth token”** which is indicated under the test category **“Broken User Authentication (BUA).”** --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
