You can now link app automated tests directly to test cases in Test Manager. It simplifies the process of tracking and managing app automated tests. Also, you can align your tests with your overall testing strategy, ensuring better test coverage and more efficient test management workflows.
Check out the latest feature set of KaneAI that introduces several enhancements aimed at improving testing workflows, boosting efficiency, and refining automation. 👇
📌 Create and Execute Test Plans With KaneAI-Generated Test Cases
We have rolled out a new feature that lets you create test plans with KaneAI-generated test cases and run them directly on HyperExecute. This means you can test across multiple browsers and operating systems at the same time, saving you time and effort. There’s no need for manual setup—just create your tests, and you can execute them right away in one smooth workflow.
📌 Natural Language Support for JSON Variable Validation
With this update, you can now validate JSON objects in KaneAI using natural language. This makes it easier to check complex JSON structures through API calls or JavaScript snippets within your KaneAI test cases. It simplifies things by reducing the need for manual assertions when dealing with dynamic JSON responses and makes JSON validation more accessible, even for those who aren't as technically inclined.
📌 Run Test Plans on Multiple Configurations
This feature allows you to run KaneAI-generated tests across multiple configurations all at once. You can execute a batch of tests in parallel, which helps save time and increases your efficiency.
📌 CI/CD Pipeline Integration for Test Plan Execution
Now, you can trigger test plan execution directly within your CI/CD pipeline. This update makes it easier to integrate testing into your development process, offering continuous testing and quicker feedback loops. It’s all automated, so developers and DevOps teams can focus on building without worrying about manually triggering tests.
📌 Run Native Automated Tests Using Appium With Java
You can now generate Appium Java test scripts for native app automation. This makes it much easier to automate tests for mobile apps using Appium and integrates well with your existing setup. If you're working on mobile automation, this feature helps you get started quickly by generating the code you need.
📌 Modules for Web and App Tests
You can use KaneAI modules that let you group test steps into reusable modules, making it easier to create and maintain tests. You can use these modules for both web and app tests, saving time and reducing redundancy. It’s a simple way to make your test creation more efficient and organized.
📌 Variables for App Tests on Real Devices
You can now create and use variables in KaneAI for native app tests on real devices. This helps you automate your app tests more efficiently by handling dynamic variables for real-world testing. It’s a simple way to make sure your tests are accurate when running them on actual devices without any added complexity.
📌 Track Projects With Milestones
With Milestones feature in KaneAI lets users track critical project goals and feature releases by associating them with Test Runs. This way, you can have a clear and organized method to monitor progress toward project completion.
📌 Test Plans and Builds are now Test Runs
Test Runs now combine Test Plans and Builds into a single entity to simplify execution across multiple configurations.
📌 API Feature Enhancements
We've made some useful improvements to the API module, including support for PATCH requests, which gives you more flexibility in your API testing. We’ve also added the ability to use variables in API bodies, making dynamic testing easier and opening up more possibilities for complex scenarios. These changes improve the way you can test APIs, giving you more control over your testing process.

SmartUI CLI now supports creating and authenticating projects using project names. This addition enhances the existing project token-based authentication, offering more flexibility. You can set the project name in SmartUI as an environment variable for seamless project creation or access during CLI runs.
SmartUI now lets you handle builds with missing screenshots to prevent false baseline updates. Builds missing screenshots are flagged, and if no visual changes are detected, they are auto-approved but marked as "Incomplete." This ensures accurate baselines and helps users identify potential execution issues.
SmartUI CLI now supports grouping screenshots with build names, improving traceability. You can append new screenshots to existing builds, making test management more efficient. This feature integrates seamlessly with Git to maintain baseline integrity across branches and enhance adaptability.
SmartUI Smart Ignore now supports advanced comparison strategies, offering greater flexibility in visual testing. You can define mismatch percentages and status changes with the choice between Strict and Smart Ignore modes. These customizable settings allow for precise and adaptable testing across various scenarios.
SmartUI now has support for project settings in Smart Ignore. You can now include all project settings available in SmartUI, such as mismatch thresholds and advanced comparison configurations. Users can easily modify these settings to suit their specific visual testing needs. These enhancements provide a smoother and more customizable testing workflow.
The redesigned SmartUI screenshot dashboard delivers a faster and more intuitive visual testing experience. With features like pinch-to-zoom, side drawer navigation, and a spacious layout, it simplifies workflows and boosts efficiency. The updates focus on enhancing productivity by making critical actions quicker and easier to perform.
SmartUI CLI just got better! The following latest updates make visual testing faster and more efficient with live result fetching and the ability to run multiple URL captures at once. 📷
We've introduced new features in KaneAI to make your AI testing experience even smoother.
If your website modifies the DOM based on viewport size or specific breakpoints, LambdaTest SmartUI SDK now offers configurable options to adapt to these changes seamlessly.
When using the SmartUI CLI, the SDK captures the DOM state precisely at the specified viewport size within the test browser and then renders it across the various browsers and resolutions defined in your configuration file.
To get started, check out this guide on capturing responsive DOM screenshots.
We have rolled out some new updates to Test Manager. With these enhancements, you'll have more visibility and control over your testing process, making it easier to manage everything.

We’ve added a new Smart Ignore feature in SmartUI to make visual testing smoother and more accurate, especially for dynamic, content-heavy software applications. This feature can distinguish between actual content changes and minor element shifts, reducing the false positives often found with pixel-by-pixel comparisons.
Here’s how Smart Ignore can help you:
Currently, we have released the Smart Ignore feature in beta. You can enable Smart Ignore for free by contacting our sales team.
