What’s new in Release 2.5.0
New features and improvements:
In response to a variety of requests, we have implemented the following new features:
Functional enhancements:
- New standard properties have been added to the testmate Test Case Design and Test Object Design modules. This improves the assignment of test cases and test objects to releases and test iterations. In addition, the new fields for risk and complexity category classification allow better control and planning of the test process. In the long term, electronically supported effort estimation is also to be developed on the basis of this information.
- Test acceptance criteria can also be created in the test object design module. This documents which test object acceptance criteria are to be met/tested before the actual creation of test cases. The introduction further improves the structuring of the test process.
- The values specified in the test object design for these new fields are automatically transferred to the test case when a test case is created or assigned to a test object.
- In the Test Execution module, it is now possible to filter by name, release, iteration, status, risk and complexity when adding new test cases to the test set, making it much easier to find test cases.
Handling improvements:
- In the Test Case Design module, we use a central table for the creation of different concrete test cases when defining logical (flow) and concrete (value attributes) test cases. In this table, multiple columns can now be selected and set to the desired width at the same time, as is familiar from spreadsheet programs.
In addition, bugs have been fixed to further improve stability and usability.
Already delivered in the last deployment was the possibility to further use file types for file attachments, such as .msg or eml.
