Release 9.8

Navigate Directly from Execution Center to Execution Summary Report

In the continued effort to migrate all execution reports to the new DigitalZoom Reporting service, the Execution Center now connects you directly to the Execution Summary Report. All Selenium/Appium and UFT executions now generate Execution Summary Reports and Single Test Reports. The Execution Center now links you directly to the Execution Summary Report. If the execution also generated a Legacy XML report, this can be accessed from the Single Test Report through the link to the WindTunnel Report. See the video below for a quick tour on navigating to the reports from the Execution Center.

Instrumentation UI changes

Perfecto has simplified the instrumentation of installed applications process for Interactive users. All instrumentations are now selected from a single dialogue panel during the installation process. Currently, Perfecto supports two flavors of instrumentation -

  • WebView Instrumentation - analyzes the UI Elements on the different displays to make them all accessible from the ObjectSpy and using Selenium XPath.
  • Camera Instrumentation - identifies when an application uses the device camera, and allows your automation script to use Image Injection to supply an image to the application.
