Release Notes
Version 2.7.0
Release Date : 30.04.2021
This version brings significant improvements, with focus on support of new integration platforms. We implemented full support for testing Dell Boomi integration server and provided a complete solution for testing SAP API Management exposed API’s*. Thanks to functional similarities, also APIGEE solution is supported. We enabled SAP CBTA based UI tests, so that You can now test end-to-end processes where the transactional steps are in SAP Fiori app, or other CBTA enabled technology, including the well-supported SAP GUI transactions.
On the technical front, we enabled WAIT on automation objects, to enable successful processing of lengthy integration processes, and to even better support complex scenarios, we’ve enabled asynchronous background processing of test runs, especially helpful when running long test runs thru external API. On top of that it’s worth mention the handling of multiple message versions in PO and regular expressions in variables. The next big thing is the ability to capture Web Service and REST calls from SAP ICF to automate test case creation for Web Services exposed directly from SAP ABAP backend.
Finally, to aid security setup of new IFTT installations, we’ve provided role templates for typical IFTT usage scenarios. All of the above of course properly reflected in documentation.
*API Management exposed API’s are supported using specifically customized PI/PO test type. Complete documentation update with examples will be published by 12th May 2021.
