What’s New in Perfecto 25.11?

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

• Playwright testing: You can now integrate Playwright with Perfecto to run your Playwright tests across real browsers in the Perfecto cloud. This integration supports Java, JavaScript, and TypeScript and includes optional setup for Perfecto Smart Reporting.
• Secured string variable support in AI User Actions: You can now use the Secured String variable type as part of the AI User Action command to create secure variables that protect sensitive values by preventing them from appearing in the Perfecto Smart Reporting UI.
• New Scriptless Mobile API endpoints: Perfecto has introduced two new endpoints to the Scriptless Mobile Public API. These endpoints allow you to retrieve the test execution status and a list of text executions.
• Device language automation: You can now automate language changes on mobile devices using the new Perfecto extension perfecto:language:set. This helps you streamline test setup and run consistent localization tests across supported languages.
• Test IE Mode in Edge: Perfecto now supports Selenium automation for Internet Explorer mode in Edge on Windows machines, allowing you to test legacy web applications without switching browsers or compromising automation coverage.
• Improved backspace key responsiveness: Perfecto now delivers a smoother, more natural experience when using the backspace key during real device interactions. This enhancement helps you maintain flow and precision when editing input fields.
