LambdaTest now supports manual accessibility testing of iOS apps (web and native) on real device cloud. With this feature, you can ensure that your iOS apps are accessible to all users, including those with impairments. 

On real iOS devices, you can now test various accessibility settings, like:

• Text Size Adjustments: Test how your app responds to different text sizes.
• Contrast Settings: Ensure that content remains clear and readable with high-contrast modes.
• Motion Reduction: Verify your mobile app’s compatibility with reduced-motion settings for a smoother, less animated experience.

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.

Hey there 👋 

We’ve just rolled out some awesome new features in our AI-powered Test Manager that will streamline your test management game. Let's walk through what’s new:

• Tagging and Preconditions: You can now import and map tags and preconditions to your test cases, making it way easier to keep everything organized and efficient.
• API Enhancements: Managing test data is smoother than ever. With new POST and PUT API capabilities, you can easily send or update test data—perfect for automating those updates into your CI/CD pipeline.
• CSV Export: Need to export test cases for reporting or analysis? You can now export everything in CSV format, giving you the flexibility to handle your test data however you like.
• BDD Scenarios: Stay on top of your progress by viewing and updating the status of your BDD scenarios in builds. 
• Manual Test Execution Updates: You can now add remarks and even attach files directly during manual test execution, giving you extra clarity and context for each case.
• TestRail Integration: Using TestRail for test management? You can now directly import test case data from TestRail, making your migration super easy.

We are live with two new additions to enhance your testing capabilities:

macOS Sequoia Support for Real Time Testing
You can now run your manual tests on the latest macOS Sequoia, ensuring compatibility with Apple’s newest operating system. Test your web applications across browsers in a real macOS Sequoia environment to catch potential issues early and improve the overall user experience for macOS users.

Android 15 Support on Google Pixel Emulators
Stay ahead of the curve by testing your mobile applications on Android 15 using Google Pixel emulators. Ensure your apps run smoothly on the latest Android version, checking for performance, UI responsiveness, and compatibility.

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

LambdaTest now supports the latest iPhone 16 series with iOS 18 on its real device cloud, enabling precise manual and automated testing for mobile apps. Ensure cross-browser compatibility, UI responsiveness, and native app performance on real iPhone 16 devices.

You can test on the following iPhone 16 models:

• iPhone 16
• iPhone 16 Plus
• iPhone 16 Pro
• iPhone 16 Pro Max

Test on iPhone 16 📱

LambdaTest Real Time App Testing now supports the screen reader feature for testing mobile app accessibility on real Android devices. This feature allows you to navigate through app elements with spoken descriptions of the UI, similar to Google TalkBack. It helps ensure your Android app complies with Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG).

Note: Currently, we have rolled out this feature in beta.

To get started, refer to our documentation on Screen Reader (TalkBack) for Android.

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.

Now, test your Android apps on the latest Google Pixel 9 using our real device cloud. 

This allows you to perform both manual and automated tests on a real Google Pixel 9, ensuring your mobile applications function as expected and are fully compatible with the Google Pixel 9.

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"
