• Test Cycle Failed Test Triage Recommendations from Worksoft SaaS Machine Learning
  

  When you execute test cycles, many a time there are specific patterns for the failed tests, if any. The pattern usually involves the same error description, position of the failure (say at the same test instruction within the same test script), etc.To complete the triaging of the failed tests within a test cycle efficiently, this release offers yet another powerful feature driven by Worksoft SaaS Machine Learning.

  As soon as you manually triage a new failure that was never experienced before, you can initiate the "Failure Triage in Bulk of Other Test Runs" workflow (as you must have been doing already).  So far, you had to manually select the target test runs that you want to assign the same triage information from a source test run to other test runs in the same (or different test cycles. With this release, the Worksoft SaaS Machine Learning will "implicitly" check if there are other failed test runs in the same test cycle that have the same or closely similar patterns of failure and automatically "recommend" test runs that guide you in choosing other failed test runs in the same test cycle that could benefit from a bulk assignment of triage information (root cause(s) of failure and/or issue linkages) from a source test run.

  The recommendation engine will take a little bit of time to come back with recommendations. Each recommendation is color coded. The stronger the recommendation, the darker the green color in a new icon that appears right below the actions menu in the 'Actions' column of the Test Runs grid listing.

• Worksoft SaaS now uses Selenium 4 for the Cloud test executions
  

  We replaced the use of 3.x version of Selenium with Selenium 4 under the covers within the Worksoft SaaS Cloud Test Execution Engine that executes tests on the desktop browsers, mobile emulators and real devices. Your tests should continue to execute as they used to even on Selenium 4. We don't expect you to make any changes to your tests.

  

  You may be aware that Selenium 4 started its development in late 2018, had its first Alpha release in April 2019, and moved to Beta in February 2021. It was released October 13, 2021. Selenium 4 has been designed to be a drop-in replacement. The Selenium team has spent a good amount of time making the upgrade process as painless as possible. Selenium 4 removes support for the legacy protocol and uses the W3C WebDriver standard by default under the hood.
