Ancestry helps you understand your genealogy. Many ancestry tests take you back generations and allows you to trace your family back much farther than traditional genealogy records. You can go in much deeper detail about your family with some tests. You may be able to find out where your family came from and in some situations you can even find out when your family arrived in certain locations.
While the main draw is ancestry, you can also use DNA testing to uncover important health information and learn about what traits you inherited from your parents and you might discover relatives you didn't know you had.
In purchasing a test: buy from a company that protects your data; find a test that reveals when and where your ancestors appeared; and last but not least, follow the science and the genetic experts.
