HyperExecute
HyperExecute now supports beta browsers for the Windows Platform! 🎉
This means you can now test your web applications on the latest beta versions of popular browsers for the Windows platform, ensuring compatibility and catching potential issues early on.
Here's what's new:
TEST ANALYTICS
Real-Time Browser Concurrency Usage - Support for Sub-Organizations
With the latest update, parent organization account users can now seamlessly monitor the real-time browser session usage of all their sub-organizations from a single, unified view. This feature grants the ability to observe which sub-organizations are utilizing more or fewer resources, thereby enabling a more strategic and informed approach to resource planning.
Key Benefits:
For more information, refer to our documentation - Advanced Test Analytics.
HYPEREXECUTE
Support for Test Muting
With Test Muting functionality, you can temporarily disable the execution of a test case. This can helpful for skipping failing or irrelevant tests, enhancing the efficiency and efficacy of your test process and enabling you to concentrate on the most important results.
To get started, head to our documentation - Test Muting in HyperExecute.
Semaphore CI/CD Pipeline Integration with HyperExecute: Seamless Test Executions and Shorter Test Cycles
Semaphore CI/CD is a popular cloud-based platform that helps engineering teams of all sizes build, test, and deploy their software faster and more reliably. HyperExecute is a powerful test execution platform that offers unparalleled speed, efficiency, scalability, and compatibility.
The new integration between Semaphore CI/CD and HyperExecute will allow teams to execute their tests on HyperExecute's cloud infrastructure seamlessly. This can help teams significantly shorten their test cycles and deliver software faster.
📕 For more details, check the documentation.
Run Smart UI Tests from HyperExecute using Cypress Framework
Cypress is a popular JavaScript framework for developing end-to-end UI tests. It offers several advantages over other UI testing frameworks, including speed, simplicity, and reliability. HyperExecute now supports the Cypress framework, allowing teams to run their Cypress UI tests on our cloud infrastructure, thus helping teams improve the quality of their UI tests and reduce the time to test their applications.
📕 Head over to our documentation to get started with SmartUI on HYP using Cypress
HyperExecute Now Supports Maven/JUnit4, Maven/JUnit5, Wdio/Mocha, and Wdio/Jasmine Frameworks
HyperExecute now supports four popular testing frameworks: Maven/JUnit4, Maven/JUnit5, Wdio/Mocha, and Wdio/Jasmine. Teams can now use HyperExecute to execute their tests in a wider range of programming languages and environments. Adding support for these four frameworks makes HyperExecute a more versatile and powerful test execution platform.
📕 For more details, check the documentation.
START TESTING
Are your web and mobile apps ready for Android 14?
Test them now on LambdaTest virtual device cloud running the latest Android 14 Emulators and ensure your web and native mobile apps are compatible with the latest Android 14. 📱 🌐
Here are the following Emulators supporting Android 14:
APP AUTOMATION
App Automation on Emulators and Simulators
LambdaTest now supports App Automation on Emulators and Simulators. With this feature, you can automate mobile apps on a virtual device cloud of Emulators and Simulators. Currently, this feature is available in the Beta phase, with support for the Appium framework.
SmartUI
DOM Comparison for Playwright and Puppeteer
While performing visual regression testing, if you have any dynamic elements that are not in the same position across test runs, you can now ignore/select a specific area to be removed from the comparison using the Playwright and Puppeteer framework.
Refer to the documentation to get started - Handle Dynamic Elements in SmartUI.
TEST INTELLIGENCE
AI-Powered Flaky Test Detection
LambdaTest Test Intelligence platform is now live with flaky test detection to help you identify the flaky tests in your test suite. It provides you with a list of tests that are flaky and the reason behind the flakiness of the test.
You can also view the history of the flaky tests and the number of times the test has failed in the past. This helps you to identify the flaky tests and fix them to improve the quality of your test suite.
Check the documentation - Flaky Test Detection with Test Intelligence.
LAMBDATEST TUNNEL
New Tunnel Flags for NTLM Authentication
LambdaTest Tunnel now offers support for NTLM authentication, a Microsoft-specific authentication mechanism used on IIS Servers. To use this feature, we've introduced two new flags: --ntlm-username
and --ntlm-password
.
REAL TIME TESTING
Test on the Latest iPhone 15 Simulators with iOS 17
You can now test your web and native mobile apps on the latest iPhone 15 Series running iOS 17. The available iPhone 15 Simulators include the following models:
INTEGRATIONS
LambdaTest Integration With Axosoft
LambdaTest now offers integration with Axosoft to enable the creation and management of bugs or issues directly from the LambdaTest platform.
To use this integration, visit the documentation - LambdaTest Integration With Axosoft.
SmartUI
SmartUI CLI for Visual Regression Testing
We've just introduced a SmartUI CLI to make visual regression testing easier and more convenient for you. With this, you can now perform visual regression testing effortlessly right from your command line terminal.
It's easy to get started with SmartUI CLI -
For more details, check the documentation SmartUI CLI.
Test Analytics
Get Test Case Insights in Test Analytics for HyperExecute
We have now added two new widgets in LambdaTest Analytics: the Test Cases Health Snapshot and the Test Cases View for HyperExecute. These widgets are designed to make it easier for you to dive into the details of your test execution at the individual test case level.
With these features, you can now access in-depth information about the number and types of test cases. The best part is that you can customize these widgets and apply advanced filters to tailor your analysis according to your specific needs. It's all about giving you the tools to gain a deeper understanding of your test cases and their performance.
APP Automation REAL TIME APP TESTINGBiometric Authentication for iOS
LambdaTest now supports biometric authentication on real devices for iOS 13 and above versions. With this new feature, you can test the biometric authentication functionality in your iOS apps to ensure that the app provides an optimal user experience on various iOS devices and platforms.
REAL TIME BROWSER TESTING
The latest browser versions to enhance your cross browser testing capabilities are now live.
Our team is excited to announce the new features and enhancements to LambdaTest's SmartUI and Analytics Platform. Let's take a look at them.
SmartUI
Test on Edge Browser 🌐
SmartUI now supports Edge browser in addition to other supported browsers such as Chrome, Firefox, and more. Using Storybook, you can test your software application's UI components on the Edge browser to ensure they function and render perfectly.
Capture Full Page Screenshots with Auto-Height Detection 📷
Earlier A/B testing of images with SmartUI requires you to take full-page screenshots to make more informed decisions. In addition, capturing full-page screenshots in Storybook also requires manual configuration of the page height.
With the Auto Height Detection feature, now you can capture full-page screenshots by automatically detecting and adjusting the page height and avoid the hassle of manually specifying the height parameter in the configuration file.
Integration of GitHub App with Playwright 🔁
SmartUI now integrates the GitHub App with Playwright, allowing you to link your GitHub repositories directly to your LambdaTest's SmartUI accounts.
With SmartUI, you and your teams can easily share test scripts, review changes, and provide feedback within their GitHub repositories. With any CI tool on GitHub, you can get information about the status of visual regression builds and pull and push requests.
Analytics
LambdaTest Test Analytics Templates 📰
With the new Test Analytics Templates, you can now access pre-built templates that provide comprehensive insight into your test results, making it easier to analyze and interpret the information.
These templates provide a structured framework for the presentation of test analytics, allowing you to customize and visualize their data in a visual and meaningful manner. You and your teams can save time and effort by leveraging these templates instead of creating test reports from scratch.
