Aura

• The Cloud Registry now supports per-cloud authentication methods allowing for variances in cloud authentication models. Eg. for Perfecto passing a password only will assume it is a security token
• Added new artifact mode as AFTER_DEVICE allowing for specification of artifacts to be generated after device.quit() and device.close() are called
• All steps have the ability to override messages for success and failure
• Added a new step mode named FAILURE that will force fail the test ignoreing all IGNORE statements in the execution tree
• Many vendor related bug fixes and performance enhancements

Hera

• Upgraded to Appium 6.1 and Selenium 3.12

• Resolved issues with data lookups allowing for multi-level treed data structures as well as the ability to OVERRIDE data names in treed references
• Updated reports to allow for live filtering by execution status
• Added the following named context variables to a running test to analyze device data _device.manufacturer, _device.model, _device.os, _device.osVersion, _device.browserName, _device.browserVersion, _device.name, _device.phoneNumber, _device.resolution, _device.environment, _device.cloud
• Many bug fixes and performance enhancements

Typhon

• Test cases can now be specified as pure Gherkin with aJava backed implementation. Existing Gherkin/Cucumber scripts can now be executed in xFramium
• Java packages can now be specified for annotation processing - currently this applies only to the Gherkin implementation. xFramium-testing-java projects contains active Gherking examples
• GHERKIN keyword added allowing xFramium XML scripts to call Gherkin defined functions
• Upgraded to Selenium 3.11.0
• Page Data objects can now be passed to Java functions
• Java based function calls from xFramium will now add detail to the reports
• Various bug fixes and performance improvements

Tyche

2/12/2018

• Added ability to secure all data parameters and tokens value. By default the 'secure' method was added so any value that evaluates to secure{securedatahere} will be translated and used. To secure data, use the ValueTransformationFactory main() method. The resulting value will NOT be in the reports
• Added beforeStep and afterStep dependencies to allow for functions to be called before and after each step
• Added executionName attribute to driver configuration to allow for comman separated tags
• Trace attribute (true/false) added to step as a shorthand for dump state. In addition, trace was added to test and driver config (OFF/ON/DISABLED) allowing for test and suite based trace control
• Added waitFor attribute to a step indicating a verification that must occur before a step is complete. The waitFor value is a named page element formatted as site.page.name
• STATE keyword can now optionally store the page source if the context attribute is present
• Added UPGRADE named variant of the application keyword allowing for an application to be updated rather than uninstalled and reinstalled
• Added the accessibility keyword for site based accessibility testing
• Default reports now include a built in XPATH debugger for failed steps via the ANALYZE button
• Selenium libraries upgraded to 3.6.0 and Appium TO 5.0.4
• Added support for BrowserStack

Atlas

11/8/2017

• Reporting Services have been added to secondary device for reporting integrations allowing the secondary device to show up in reporting services

• ADDDEVICE2 Various debugging commands
• CONTEXT Allows setting and clearing of context variables
• SET Added some addition types to set such as NumberPickers and android spinners
• Complex descriptor types can now be filtered by the application context using the context attribute. Used to have the same script work on NATIVE and WEBVIEW data
• Steps can now be filtered by the application context using the appContext attribute. Used to have the same script work on NATIVE and WEBVIEW data
• Performance drill-down report for performance analysis
• IOS 11 fixed for vendor related problems
• Various vendor related bug fixes

Morpheus

9/18/2017

• Added retry mechanism to allow for failed scripts to be attempted multiple times before failure using the retryCount attribute in the driver element of the XML based driver configuration file.
• Each test element can specified the reliesOn attribute specifying the named of the test that must complete before this test executes allowing for script ordering
• Reworked reporting subsystem showing much more element detail
• Added keepAlive element to a cloud in the XML based cloud registry file allowing various device keep alives to be used based on the cloud instance
• The bundleId and packageName attributes in the applicatino registry can not contain common separated lists to allow for apps with different names to launch
• Many Vendor related bug fixes and work-arounds

Helios

8/4/2017
