HyperExecute: Enhancing Test Insights, Security, and UX

Artifact Extraction on Job Abortion

  • Artifacts will now be extracted even if a job is aborted in the middle of a test.
  • This ensures that partial test results and logs are still available for review, improving debugging and post-test analysis.

afterEachScenario Flag for Test Cleanup

  • Introduced the afterEachScenario flag to automate post-test scenario tasks. This flag is useful for cleanup activities such as clearing cookies, resetting databases, or capturing logs.
  • Commands or scripts listed under this flag will execute sequentially after each test scenario, ensuring test isolation and consistency.

📘 Refer to our detailed documentation for afterEachScenario flag

Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) for Projects

  • Implemented RBAC to enhance project security and access management.
  • Users can now be assigned specific roles with defined permissions.

This feature improves security by ensuring that only authorized users can access or modify project settings and resources.

UX Enhancements for Performance Testing Jobs

  • Improved UI/UX for managing and analyzing performance testing jobs.
  • Enhanced navigation and usability for a smoother experience.
  • Group-Wise Error View
    • Introduced an error grouping feature to help identify and troubleshoot issues efficiently.
    • Errors are now categorized for better readability and quicker resolution.
  • Toggle Metrics: ms ↔️ s
    • Added the ability to toggle performance metrics between milliseconds (ms) and seconds (s).
  • Provides flexibility for analyzing test execution times in preferred units.

Fetch Mobile App Profile Metrics Using API

In App Automation, you can now get app profiling metrics from your test sessions using an API. You can add this API to your CI/CD pipelines or automation frameworks. This allows you to get real-time performance data—like CPU usage, memory, disk usage, and network activity.

To get the profiling details, send a request to the LambdaTest API. Use your LambdaTest Username, Access Key, and the session ID. The response will include the metrics in JSON format. This makes it easy to link with other tools or reporting systems for more analysis.

To get started, refer to this guide on fetching app profiling metrics using API.

Bonus: We have also added support for network log features for Espresso (Sharding/ Non Sharding) and Flutter Android tests. To get started, refer to this guide on Supported Espresso Capabilities.

HyperExecute Update: Consolidated Reports, Artifacts, and Browser Support

Consolidated JUnit XML Report Generation

The consolidated JUnit XML report includes detailed information on all executed tests, i.e., which tests passed, failed, or were skipped, along with any error messages and stack traces for failed tests. It is widely supported across CI/CD tools, making it easy to integrate with existing workflows and other tools or systems.

📕 Refer to our documentation for detailed instructions on setting up your project and using the new JUnit XML report

Generate Artifacts for Espresso & XCUI Frameworks

Now, you can download artifacts for your test runs on both Espresso and XCUI frameworks and detailed reports for your Espresso test executions.

  • To generate artifacts and reports for your Espresso tests, add the artifacts: true and reports: true flag in your YAML file and pass the --download-artifacts and --download-report flag with the CLI command
