Interact With Android and iOS Devices in Real-Time 

You can now interact with real Android and iOS devices in real-time during web automation tests. This means you can inspect UI elements, check device behavior, and troubleshoot any issues instantly, without waiting for the test to complete.

Control Bluetooth Settings During Test Sessions

You now have the ability to turn Bluetooth on or off on real Android and iOS devices during your test sessions. This feature is supported for both manual and automated testing. So, it’s easier than ever to validate Bluetooth-dependent features within your test flow.

For example,

enableBluetooth: true 

Set Custom GPS Coordinates for Mobile Test Automation

You can now set custom GPS coordinates during your tests for Espresso, XCUITest, and Flutter. This makes it simple to simulate different locations and test location-based scenarios.

For example,

"location": {"lat": "-50","long": "150.028333"}

You can now integrate your Firebase App Distribution account directly with LambdaTest. It allows you to instantly push mobile apps to real Android and iOS devices in the cloud—no need to download and re-upload builds.

With this update, testing beta builds, bug fixes, or new features becomes much faster and more efficient. Simply link your Firebase project, and your mobile app is ready for testing on real devices within LambdaTest.

You can also easily share access to these mobile apps with your teammates, ensuring everyone is testing from the same source.

For more details, check out our documentation on testing mobile apps installed via Firebase.

You can now use VoiceOver on real iOS devices to manually test the accessibility of your mobile apps.

This means you can check how well your digital experience works for people who rely on screen readers—especially those with visual impairments. 

VoiceOver reads out loud what's on the screen, helping users navigate and interact with your content without needing to see it.

Filter Custom Data in Build Comparison

You can now filter and compare web automation builds with the new customData capability in Insights. This allows you to analyze specific test scenarios based on the tags or metadata you've defined.

New App Automation Widget

We have added a new widget for App Automation that gives you comprehensive visibility into your test execution metrics. 

With this widget, you can easily see key details like total tests, time used, and pass/fail rates. This helps you figure out where you can improve your testing and find issues quickly.

Excel Export for Usage Reports

You can now export your usage reports directly into Excel (.xlsx) format. This allows you to easily manipulate, analyze, and share the test data you used with your team. 

"Created By" Column in Dashboards

We've added a 'Created by' column to the Dashboard list, so you can easily see who created each dashboard. This makes finding the right dashboard and working with your team much simpler.

Easy Column Sorting in Data Tables

You now have more control over your data. Just click any column header to sort it and quickly find the information you need. This helps you prioritize metrics and see patterns faster.

Admin Controls for Dashboards

Our Insights platform now allows admins to manage all dashboards, ensuring consistent data and visualizations across the organization. They can update, delete, and modify dashboards as needed, keeping critical information accurate.  

Widget Filtering for Disabled/Deleted Tests

To make your dashboards easier to understand, you can now exclude disabled tests. This removes disabled and deleted tests from your data, giving you a better view of your current testing workflow.

To enhance our platform and focus on the most widely used device versions, iOS 12 devices will no longer be available on LambdaTest Real Devices Cloud starting February 26th. 

Additionally, we are planning to deprecate iOS 13 devices in the near future. 

We understand the importance of a smooth transition, so we will provide at least two months' notice before their deprecations.

If you have any questions or need further assistance, our support team is here to help.

Test Cases Insights Now Supports Web Automation 📊 

LambdaTest Insights now lets you view test case insights for web automated tests. You can use dynamic selectors, manage complex user interactions, and verify visual elements across browsers, all while benefiting from our detailed reports and analytics.

Compare Builds and Analyze Results With Build Comparison Insights ♻ 

We have now added the Build Comparison feature in Insights to compare builds and analyze results. It gives you a clear view of your test execution history, making it easy to spot regressions and bringing all the important information into one easy-to-view screen.

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.

Browser Version Updates

• Edge Beta : Released 133.3065.31 2.7.1 and 133.3065.39 2.7.2 for beta testing
