What’s New in Perfecto 25.8?

This release introduces support for the following new features and enhancements:

• Chango to AI access: AI commands previously available in Beta mode, whether used in Scriptless Mobile or through Appium, are no longer part of the general offering and require a separate license
• Execute JavaScript command: You can now run a new command in Scriptless Mobile that uses JavaScript for processing and transformating data as part of a test run
• Search option for tests: Scriptless Mobile now supports a search function within the Open, Save As, and Manage Tests dialog boxes, making it easier to locate specific tests
• Handling of embedded tests: Scriptless Mobile now supports a more streamlined method for passing the result from an embedded test to the main test, making it possible to directly pass a result from the embedded test to the main test
• Opening reports in new browser tab: In the CI Dashboard view, you can now open reports in a new tab or window, allowing you to view multiple runs across separate tabs without losing your current CI Dashboard view
• Deque support for accessibility testing: Perfecto now supports automated accessibility testing for mobile applications using Deque’s axe DevTools for Mobile, allowing teams to run Deque accessibility scan directly within Perfecto
• Triggering of React Native dev menu: You can now access the React Native development menu on both iOS and Android devices in debuggable builds via Scriptless Mobile, automation scripts, or external tools
