Release Notes - 27 April 2020

New Features available for you to benefit from:

Included in this release are the following features:

  • QaCONNECT: A new service to support Auto Triage Corrections for the tests executed within the Test Cycles

    You have scheduled a batch of runs and have observed that the auto-assignment of either the Root Cause for Failure labels or the issues are not linked appropriately, then you manually have to navigate to each run detail and change the labels/issues which consumes a lot of time when there are more failed tests due to application flakiness. To support this, a new QaCONNECT Service is available from this release where you can make changes to the labels/issues which are either assigned manually or using Worksoft AI/ML accordingly.

  • Activity History for User-Defined Variables

    In the User-Defined Variables module, you can now view the activities performed like creating a new UDV or editing the name or values of the UDV under "Activity History" which is similarly already available in most of all the entities in the Worksoft SaaS Application.

  • Productivity Improvements to Test Cycles Home screen

    In the Test Cycle Home screen, you can see two new changes that are incorporated from this release. One is to have multiple options for aborting the tests in a test cycle. Another one is to represent the state of the auto re-run flaky tests using Worksoft AI/ML, a new icon is introduced which is shown next to the Test Cycle Identifier.

  • Changes to the command "setAttachmentDataFile"

    Using the "Commands for Team Notifications, Alerts and Collaboration", you can send the alerts related to the automated tests including the screenshots & attachments. As part of the attachments, you have a provision to attach the CSV file.
    Earlier, there is no provision to have the attributes as the header for the CSV file alias data file. From now on, you can include an input "withAttributes" in the target field for the "setAttachmentDataFile" command and generate the data files with the header having the attributes.

  • Changes to the command "ddCreateDatafileFromTestCycleClipboards"

    The 'ddCreateDatafileFromTestCycleClipboards' command allows you to generate the data file by specifying the parameters in the 'Target' and 'Value' fields. At times, the command may not wait until the file gets generated using the "setAttachmentDataFile" command and gets passed. To avoid this, a new parameter "waitUntiFileGenerationCompletes" is introduced from this release which upon passing the value as "true" in the JSON object would wait until the report generation gets completed.

  • Additional System Defined Variables in the Worksoft SaaS Application

    You can see a few more System-Defined Variables added in the Worksoft SaaS application such as "Domain Name", "Test Cycle Identifier" and "Project Name" which can be included as part of your automated tests.
