What’s New in HyperExecute: Detailed Cypress Logs, and Report Email Handling

1. Cypress Detailed Command Logs for Enhanced Debugging New Release

Detailed Cypress Command Logs in HyperExecute generate an extensive, human-readable record of all Cypress commands and their corresponding results, both in the console and as a file. It helps narrow down test logs, making debugging and troubleshooting Cypress tests easier.

📕 Learn how to enable Detailed Command Logs for your Cypress tests.

2. Parameterized Report Email Handling in YAML Enhancement

HyperExecute now supports an enhanced approach for managing multiple email addresses within the YAML configuration file. Previously, you needed to define multiple variables for email addresses (${email1}${email2}, etc.). With this update, a single variable can now hold multiple email addresses, separated by commas or underscores, simplifying report sharing. This enhancement eliminates the need for multiple variables, making maintaining and modifying email configurations easier.

📕 Check the Reports documentation to learn more about it.

3. Browser and Selenium Updates for Linux, Windows, and macOS New Release

Updated the browser versions across multiple platforms and upgraded the Selenium jars. This ensures compatibility with the latest features and security updates, improving test stability across different environments.

The following updates are now live:

  • Firefox: version 129.0
  • Chrome: version 128.0
  • Selenium Jars: version 4.24

New Features in Test Manager

Here are the latest features we have released in the Test Manager:

  • Copy and Move Test Cases: You can now easily copy and move multiple test cases across folders and projects, simplifying test case organization and enhancing management efficiency.
  • Link HyperExecute Tests: We've added support for linking HyperExecute tests with Test Cases for Selenium, Playwright, Puppeteer, and Cypress, allowing for smooth integration of automated tests within Test Manager.
  • Expanded Custom Fields: Test Cases now support seven new custom field data types, including Dropdown (Single and Multi Select), Number, URL, Date, User, and Boolean (Checkbox), offering greater flexibility for data management.
  • Enhanced CSV Import: Our CSV import functionality now allows you to directly import test steps, expected outcomes, and BDD scenarios, streamlining test case management by bringing in comprehensive details at once.
  • Include Test Case IDs: You can now add Test Case IDs directly into your web automation script capabilities (e.g., "tms.tc_id": "TC-101"), linking automation runs to specific test cases and simplifying test management.

HyperExecute: Set Dynamic Email Address for Report Sharing

HyperExecute CLI added an enhancement to the --vars flag providing greater flexibility in specifying email addresses for report and artefact sharing. You can now use a variable to dynamically set the email address used to share reports or artefacts. This gives you more flexibility than hardcoding the email address in the YAML configuration file.

report: true
partialReports:
  location: target/surefire-reports/html
  type: html
  frameworkName: extent
  email:
      to:
        - "${email}"
        - "${email1}"

uploadArtifacts:
  - name: Reports 1
    path:
      - ProtractorTestReport.html
    email:
      to: 
        - "${email}"
        - "${email1}"

This is how you can pass the value of your email address via CLI by running the command

./hyperexecute --vars "email=xyz@abc.com" --vars "email1=abc@xyz.com"
