Release 23.15

See what's new in Perfecto 23.15 (released on December 10, 2023):

Scriptless Web enhancements

Copy a folder to another project

Scriptless Web now lets you copy a folder from one project to another. Copying a folder also copies all content and dependent tests to the destination folder.

Watch this short video to see how it works. For more information, see Copy a folder.

DevTunnel enhancements

DevTunnel now supports Oracle JDK version 17. Previously, version 12 was the highest Oracle JDK version supported.

In addition, DevTunnel now supports OpenJDK.

For comprehensive DevTunnel documentation, see DevTunnel | Debug on real Perfecto devices.

Platform support | Real devices

iOS 17 enhancements

Devices running iOS 17 now also support accessibility testing with VoiceOver and setting a location without instrumentation.

New iOS versions

Support for iOS 17. 2 Beta 3 is now available. iOS 17 versions do not currently support performance vitals.

All limitations for iOS 16.x versions still apply.

Connecting iOS devices requires HSS version 23.12 and an IDS with macOS Ventura and Xcode 15.

Important: To avoid test disruption in hybrid clouds after upgrading devices to iOS 17, on the device, under Settings > General > Airdrop, make sure that the Bringing Devices Together toggle is turned off.

If you are interested in having iOS 17 devices connected in your cloud, contact Perfecto Support.

For complete support information, see iOS support updates.

Platform support | Virtual devices

Appium 2 support

You can now test your apps on virtual devices using Appium 2.2 or later with an Appium 2-compatible client. If you do, you must make sure to:

Limit the value of the appiumVersion capability to the major and minor version, without a patch number (for example 2.2, but not 2.2.1).

For a list of all supported Appium versions for virtual devices, see Supported platforms.
Add the prefix perfecto: to Perfecto capabilities. For example: “perfecto:useVirtualDevice”, true

Alternatively, you can use the perfectoOptions notation.

For upgrade information, see Upgrade to an Appium 2-compliant client and Appium 2-compliant client and Selenium 4 sample project.

For comprehensive information on working with virtual devices, see the Virtual mobile devices section in our documentation.

Simulators

Added support for iOS 17.2 Beta 3 on simulators (US, Sydney, and Frankfurt only, with limited capacity).

For an updated list of devices and versions, see Supported simulator devices and OS versions.

Support for the following new browser versions is now available:

Google Chrome 120 Stable on Windows and Mac machines
Microsoft Edge 120 Stable on Windows machines
Mozilla Firefox 120 Stable and 121 Beta on Windows and Mac machines
