Animated GIF injection

Perfecto's Image Injection feature now supports animated GIFs. This enhancement allows you to simulate real user interactions in apps that rely on animated content. For example, injecting GIFs can help evaluate the robustness of facial recognition and anti-spoofing mechanisms in liveness checks for banking apps. Previously, Perfecto only supported the image formats JPEG, JPG, PNG, and BMP for image injection.

On Android devices, the following limitations apply:

• Animated GIF images are only supported on devices with Camera2 or CameraX.

• GIFs should not exceed 15 frames. A GIF file that is too large in size may cause a timeout.

To learn more about image injection, see the following resources:

• Manual testing: Inject an image

• Automation testing: Image injection

Scriptless Mobile enhancements

In this release, Scriptless Mobile includes the following enhancements.

Job scheduling for multiple tests

In Scriptless Mobile, a single job can now support multiple tests. With this updated functionality, you can:

• Select a combination of folders and/or tests to include in a job. A folder contains one or more tests.

• Configure the order of test execution.

• Use a separate device for each test execution, or opt for a single device for all test executions.

• View the details of each test execution in a consolidated report within the Report Library.

• Access the Report Library via the job link in the CI Dashboard after the job execution.

To learn how to create a job with multiple tests, watch this short video. To learn more, see Schedule jobs.

Enhanced video solution for iOS devices

Mobile devices running iOS 15 or later now benefit from an advanced video solution that allows control over resolution and bit rate, supports digital audio, and can be used concurrently with the iOS passcode solution. In addition, the new video solution comes with improved interactive performance.

This enhanced video solution does not currently support the Lock for duration feature.

If you are interested in enhanced videos, contact Perfecto Support.

End-of-life notice: Flutter

Support for the Perfecto integration with Flutter will end on November 20, 2025. You can continue to use Flutter for application development, but testing must be conducted with Appium, using either the Appium Flutter Driver or the Appium Driver Flutter package.
