3rd party updates​

Keycloak 26.0.7

Release 7.5 (November 2024)​

This version of DAI includes the following enhancements and defect fixes:

Requirements Traceability​

This addition enables you to import and reconcile requirements, that were stored in external requirement management systems, with the test cases and corresponding results in DAI. Now you can easily provide evidence that you met and tested the stated application requirements for contractual or compliance purposes. To use the Requirements Traceability feature, simply upload key requirements properties, like IDs and Descriptions, and map them to the steps of individual test cases that will exercise and validate that requirement. DAI will generate a viewable in-app report of your requirement coverage based on your successful test runs. See the new Requirements Traceability page for details.

To see the Requirements Traceability feature in action, click here.

Test Configuration Parameterization​

You can now optionally override parameter values at the test configuration level for both model- and script-based test cases by setting a preferred value for any of the available test case parameters. With this new capability, you can change your application behavior, reduce maintenance overhead, and increase flexibility in your test cases. This eliminates the need to duplicate test configurations to change your application behavior thereby reducing your maintenance overhead. You can use a single set of test assets to drive the desired behavior by simply modifying different parameter values as required. See Configure Custom Parameters for Steps Added for instructions in the use of this option.

To see the Test Configuration Parameterization feature in action, click here.

DAI 7.5 also provides parameter value overrides for CI/CD integration with the Eggplant Runners for Azure, GitHub, and Jenkins. These parameter overrides provide you with the flexibility to modify many aspects of your test runs by injecting different parameter values for alternative contexts, such as target test environments (develop, test, or staging), versions of your application, or even user profiles. See the --param option in the Advanced Options on the Running Automated Tests page for information about this parameter.

Auto-refresh of Runner Status​

You can now configure your Runner page to refresh automatically, enabling real-time updates on the run status of your test configurations without the need to reload the page. You can also still freeze the display by toggling the refresh off, just as you could on the Test Results page provided in previous releases. See Using the Eggplant DAI Runner for information about the Runner page.

To see the auto-refresh of the Runner page status in action, click here.

ノート

The auto-refresh will also be disabled when you scroll down below the first pagination point to ensure stability during review of historical results. The refresh rate is set by default, but can be modified through a configuration update on the server by the DAI administrator.

Improved Display of Fusion Engine (EPF) Run Logs​

The display of Sensetalk script execution output in the DAI Run Logs now more closely matches what you see in Eggplant Studio (EPF) and Eggplant Manager logs. You can see individual log lines in table rows with additional colorization, making debugging and troubleshooting easier should the test case fail or error. See Vieweing Execution Results for information about viewing logs. In future releases, you will also be able to filter and search the logs.

ノート

In order for the EPF log to display correctly in the DAI Run Logs, you need to use the standard format of logging in EPF. If you customize the EPF log, the log may not display correctly because DAI depends on the number of the tab position to separate data into different columns.

To see the improved display of the Fusion Engine Run Logs, click here.

Improved Display of Screenshots​

The layout and sizing of the screenshots captured during a test are now more consistently presented thumbnails, enabling you to more easily review them when you are analyzing your results.

To see the improved display of screenshots, click here.

Public API – Test Configuration results only​

The DAI public API now provides access to test configuration results for integration purposes. You can now extract a list of test configuration results, the specifics of an individual test configuration result (such as start time, end time, status), as well as the results in a JUnit XML file. For more information, see TestConfigResult, TestConfigResultSortBy and TestConfigResultsPaginatedList, and TestConfigStatus.

ノート

If you are using DAI's public APIs, you need to authenticate using client credentials as described in the section Generate Your API Client Credentials in our documentation. While we allow username and password authentication (auth code grant) to access our public APIs, security counter-measures may cause failures if authentication calls are made too frequently.

Public API – Test Results update (v2)​

The DAI public API now supports updates to the Run Log content where the format has been updated to support splitting the content into multiple fields. Backward compatibility exists with v1, but this will be deprecated in the future, so please update to use v2. For more information, see TestResult, TestResultLogEntriesPaginatedList, TestResultLogEntry, TestResultLogEntryPaginatedList, and TestResultsPaginatedList.

Defect Fixes​​

  • Fixed an issue where DAI was not optimal when exploring possible paths. When selecting a parameter value, DAI was choosing the value with the highest overall score. Now DAI chooses the value with the lowest overall score. (CRD-1665)

  • Fixed an issue where an empty, red error bar displayed on the Notification Setting Window when the server was utilizing a self-signed certificate for secure communication. (CRD-1651)

  • Fixed an issue where duplication of test cases runs an error when the test case contains one or more Tags. (CRD-1655)

  • Fixed an issue where a screenshot is too large for clients to view properly in script-based test result. (CRD-1641)

  • Fixed an issue where the DAI webserver was not limiting the number of concurrent sessions against a DOS attack. (CRD-1702)

Security Fixes​​

DAI 7.5 remediates the following vulnerabilities:

  • Upgrade of axios to version 1.7.46.8 to remediate CVE-2023-45857 CVE-2024-39338.

  • Upgrade of strawberry-graphql to version v0.243.0 to remediate CVE-2024-47082.

  • Upgrade of Python-lib to version 2024.8.30 to remediate CVE-2024-39689 in python-certifi.

  • Starlette to version 0.40.0 to remediate CVE-2024-47874

  • Upgrade of Requests to version 2.32.2 to remediate CVE-2024-35195

  • Upgrade of Urllib3 to version 1.26.20 to remediate CVE-2024-37891

Release 7.4 (August 2024)​

This version of DAI includes the following enhancements, defect fixes, and CVE fixes:

Retry Test Configuration Runs​

DAI can now retry any test configurations that would have ended with an error in previous versions due to the unavailability of required resources, such as a SUT or execution environment. Now, at the start of test configuration run, DAI can check the availability of the resources required. If they are locked, the execution status will be set to Pending and the test configuration console log will report the resource constraint that is blocking the execution. Retries can occur at a regular interval, and for a period of time, specified by the DAI System Administrator in the server configuration. This enhancement enables you to fully benefit from step-level retesting and stop-on-failure without concern about scheduling clashes, and license or resource contention. See Retry Settings for SUT and Execution Environment Connections for information about these configuration options.

Enhanced Test Case Parameterization (Model-based)​

You can now override existing model parameter values at the test case level by setting a custom value for any of the available parameters at the step level of the test case. Live Run now also supports the setting of the parameter values at runtime, so you can confirm the effect of applying specific values interactively. See the Set Parameters on the Live Run page for more information. In addition, you can also override the same parameter values at the test configuration level for tests executed by the Runner. With this new capability, you can eliminate the need to duplicate test cases and test configurations to application behavior thereby reducing your maintenance overhead. You can now consolidate to using a single set of test assets and drive the desired behavior by modifying with different parameter values as required. See Configure Custom Parameters for Steps Added.

ノート

The parameterization enhancement in DAI 7.4 is for model-based testing. Parameterization for script-based test cases has been available since DAI 7.2, but will be expanded for script-based test configurations in the next release, 7.5 . DAI 7.5 will also provide full CI/CD integration for both modes via the Eggplant Runner/Azure DevOps/GitHub/Jenkins integrations. These future enhancements will be beneficial in a number of scenarios such as dynamic environment or SUT allocation for a test run.

Windows Single System Connection Type Support (Development/Live Run)​

You can now leverage the Eggplant Functional Single System connection type for Windows desktops in DAI. DAI support for this connection type is primarily designed to simplify the test asset development process through Live Run. The Single System connection type is available for both model- and script-based executions. When triggering a Live Run, you will need to select a pre-configured, ‘local’ Single System SUT connected to your ‘local’ Execution Environment. See Adding SUT Connections and Step by Step: Entering Single System Connection Details for more information about the Single System SUT connection type.

ノート

Live Run, which uses the DAI Design Agent, requires users to select a pre-configured DAI SUT that corresponds to the same host as the selected Execution Environment in order to gain access, i.e. both the Execution Environment and SUT are on the same host and linked in the SUT configuration.

Due to technical implementation constraints, when running a Test Config and therefore using a DAI Run Agent to execute using a Single System connection, the agent cannot be launched as a Windows service. It instead must be run from a command-line within an active desktop session.

Public API – Test Results Only​

DAI 7.4 includes its first formal, publicly available API. This first public API provides access to test results for integration purposes only. You can use it to extract a list of test results, individual test logs, and screenshots. See Public API Overview for more information.

Test Result IDs Reported via the Eggplant Runner​

The Eggplant Runner now includes links to individual results within the console log output, so you do not need to parse the result.xml file for third-party integrations. For example, you can now see result links similar to the following examples in your output:

2024-05-14 18:59:13,318 INFO Test configuration run completed with status SUCCESS
2024-05-14 18:59:13,318 INFO Test configuration ed6c3bc4-41a4-4cfa-abd2-e8a789f0d5d9 exited with status SUCCESS

2024-05-14 18:59:13,411 INFO Test run 79: http://localhost:8000/controller/results/79

Encryption of RabbitMQ Traffic​

DAI now provides an option to encrypt communication with its embedded message broker (RabbitMQ Server) when you enable HTTPS on your DAI server. Specifically, you can configure DAI to use Transport Layer Security (TLS) for all RabbitMQ communications. By default, RabbitMQ will continue to use unencrypted communications. To configure RabbitMQ to use a certificate to encrypt all traffic, you will need to modify the DAI configuration file (config.yml) with new settings. See Encrypt RabbitMQ Communications for information about how to use these settings.

External Communication Protocol Security Hardening​

This release includes configuration updates to nginx and Python to enable HTTPS security headers adn the addition of a whitelist of trusted domains for cross-origin resource sharing (CORS). Strict-Transport-Security, Content-Security-Policy and X-Content-Type-Options are all set by default on HTTPS configured instances with appropriate values.

Silent (Unattended) Install for Windows​

DAI now supports the option to perform "silent", unattended installations, upgrades, and uninstalls at the command line. We use the term "silent" to describe the process of installing (or upgrading or uninstalling) without the input of a user through a graphical user interface (GUI). Instead, you can specify the configuration settings you want your DAI Server to run with in a new silent.ini file that the DAI installation program will read when it runs. You can use this silent option if you are automating the installation of DAI or if you only have command line access to a machine. See Silent Install, Upgrade, and Uninstall of Eggplant DAI on Windows for more information.

Defect Fixes​

  • Fixed an issue where, in some circumstances, large models with a long change history could delay the start of test runs (CRD-1626).

  • Fixed an issue where passthrough parameter values were overwritten in the sub-model. The parameter value is now passed between the main model and sub-model without being regenerated, which preserves the value.

    ノート

    You should be aware that this change may affect existing model execution.

  • Fixed an issue where, in some circumstances, models with a large number of test cases experienced a delay when loading the list of test cases in a test configuration (CRD-1630).

  • Fixed an issue where test cases with a global action added to a state that had a state parameter defined were inappropriately reported as an 'Individual test case' and could not be executed. This is now allowed (CRD-1620).

  • Fixed an issue where attempts to upload a test suite with a name longer than 50 characters failed with a Failed to deserialize exception. Suite names containing more than 50 characters can now be uploaded to DAI successfully (CRD-1631).

  • Fixed an issue where the Design Agent failed to upload suites to the Versioned Asset Manager on the DAI Server where filenames in the suite contained Unicode characters (CRD-1639).

Release 7.3 (May 2024)​

This version of DAI includes the following enhancements and defect fixes:

Ability to Stop a Test Configuration on a Failed Step​

You can now configure DAI to stop a test configuration (test config) run when a test step fails, rather than continuing to run the remaining steps. See Step 3: Configure Advanced settings for the Test Configuration for information about how to disable the Continue running test config on step failure option.

Automatic Scheduled Deletion of Test Results, Logs, and Screenshots​

You can now configure DAI to automatically delete your test results, logs, and screenshots ("test artifacts") on a scheduled basis. See Enabling Scheduled Test Artifact Deletion for information about how to schedule the deletion of your test results.

Ability to Select Multiple Test Cases to Add to a Test Config or Scripted Test Case​

For test configs, you can now search for test cases, select multiple test cases, or add all the test cases at once to your test config. See Step 2: Configure the Steps/Actions for the Test Configuration for information about adding multiple test cases. You can also remove all test cases at once from a test config.

Similarly, for script-based test cases, you can now search for test steps to add, or add or remove all test steps at once from your script-based test case.

Ability to Hide Sub-models in Test Results​

To improve clarity and reduce potential confusion caused by duplicate result entries, DAI now provides the option to hide test results of sub-models.

Ability to show only Live Run or Test Config results in Test Results​

To improve clarity, you can now filter your test results by either Live Run or Test Config.

Masks Secrets from DAI Logs​

To adhere to security best practices, some information passed between DAI components is now hidden from inadvertent exposure in plain-text logs.

Defect Fixes​

  • Fixed an issue in that occurred when you were connected to a Design Agent and editing snippets in the Designer where a vertical line displayed in the center of the snippet editor.
  • Fixed an Internal Server Error that occurred when you deleted a test config that was created with a model and a tag.
  • Fixed an internal server error 500 Composite request failed where DAI did not display the test case list for a model with an empty sub-model ID.
  • Fixed an issue where the DAI service failed to start on Windows because you specified a custom path for the PostgresSQL database directory during the DAI Windows installation.
  • Fixed an issue where DAI used the default directory location for the PostgresSQL database even when you specified a custom location during DAI installation.
  • Fixed an issue where DAI inconsistently validated test config and test case names.
  • Fixed a 502/503 Error saving model error that occurred when you created or edited a model.
  • Fixed a issue where DAI failed to get test execution details with Error status.
  • Fixed an issue where the test cases name filter on the Test Results page in the DAI Controller did not show multiple test cases with the same name.
  • Fixed an issue where exploratory testing was only testing one specific path repeatedly. Note: This change subtly affects the behavior of the DAI AI Engine. As a result, you may experience generated tests following different paths than they did with previous releases.
  • Fixed an issue where DAI removed the seed from the last logged line in the test case result logs.
  • Fixed an issue where DAI failed to change a date range after you selected it with a calendar selection from filtering.

Release 7.2 (February 2024)​

This version of DAI includes the following enhancements and bug fixes:

Significant changes to the Test Results page​

Filtering on Test Results page​

  • Test results have new filtering options. You can now filter results on the Test Results page by Test case, Test configuration, Test configuration tag, Execution environment, and SUT. These options are in addition to the previous filter options: ID, Model, Suite, Status, and State. The SUT column is a new addition to the test results page. These enhancements will provide even more granularity to your test result analysis.

Sorting on the Test Results page​

  • You can now sort test results by Execution environment and SUT.

Exporting test results​

  • You can now export test results as CSV (comma-separated value) files from the Test Results page. In addition, you can export results based on the filters that you apply on the Test Results page. This will enable you to export test results based on your specific needs.

Rename of columns on Test Result page​

  • The column name Test config/Live run replaces Run mode.

  • The column name Test case/Exploratory run replaces Type.

Merge of Columns​

  • The columns Status & ID are now combined on the Test Results page. However, you can still search on both the run status and test results ID.

Passing multiple parameters from EPF to DAI in Models​

You can now use multiple output parameters (excluding Lists and Property Lists) to capture and pass data generated from Snippet runs into Actions in your models. This enhancement removes the need to use global parameters, passing parameters as strings and parsing them, or storing parameters in files.

Support for Schedule Test Runs with Cron Syntax​

You can now schedule test configurations to run in DAI using Cron syntax. You can find more information cron syntax here.

Support of Tunneling with Sauce Labs Connections​

DAI now supports Sauce Labs tunnel for both Sauce Labs device and browser and browser connections. This will enable you to access your private Sauce Labs resources.

DAI Run Agent​

You can now install the DAI Run Agent as a Microsoft Windows service. This allows the Run Agent to continue running even when users log off the machine.

The DAI Run Agent now supports MacOS Sonoma.

New Eggplant AI Bug Hunter optimised for large datasets​

This new AI Bug Hunter reduces memory consumption enabling it to process large volumes of test results through a configuration change on the DAI server.

UI/UX Improvements​

Test Configuration Set Up Flow​

The test configuration set up process is ehanched with new tabs to make it easier for you to create test configurations.

Release 7.1 (October 2023)​

This version of DAI includes the following enhancements and bug fixes:

RESTART_EPF_AFTER_SECONDS Environment Variable​

As a measure to improve stability, DAI now provides an environment variable you can set for test configuration runs to specify the amount of time Eggplant Functional (EPF) runs before restarting. This variable takes effect after the current step is finished and before moving to the next. The default value is 30 minutes. This variable setting only applies to runs with the DAI Run Agent. During live runs, EPF continuously runs without restarting. See Eggplant Functional Stop and Restart Settings for Test Configuration Runs for details.

Test Case Dashboard​

DAI now provides a dashboard that aggregates the results of all your test cases. You can filter the data you see by date range, models, or suites. This aggregation capability will help you understand the current state as well as the evolution of your testing effort in a single view.

Automatic Retry for Failed Tests​

DAI now provides the option to automatically rerun failed and errored test steps as these occur to ensure your tests complete successfully within the allocated testing timeframe. This new feature includes the options to rerun test steps within your test configuration, specify the number of times you want failed or errored tests to rerun, and the interval between reruns.

“Viewer” (Read-Only) User Role​

DAI now provides a read-only user role. This role is for users, such as managers, who need access to view test results in DAI, but do not need to create or update test artifacts.

Single Sign-On (SSO) Capability​

DAI now supports SSO capability for Eggplant users whose companies use Microsoft Entra ID (formerly "Azure" Active Directory) configured over the OpenID Connect (OIDC) or Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) protocols to control user access in a unified way. DAI also now provides SSO capability for SAML with ADFS. This is in addition to the existing support for ADFS with OIDC. If you’re interested in learning more, please reach out to your Account Manager who can assist.

Bug Fixes​

  • Fixed an issue where a support request appears each time EPF auto restarts when the Run Agent with GUI setting is set to TRUE

Release 7.0.1-1 (August 2023)​

This version of DAI includes the following enhancements and bug fixes:

Keycloak Security Update 21.1.2 – DAI now includes Keycloak version 21.1.2, which resolves a cross-scripting (XSS) security vulnerability.

Library Upgrades for Improved Security – DAI received python and cryptography library upgrades for improved security.

Support for Reruns of the DAI 7.0 Upgrade – DAI now gracefully handles a rerun of the 7.0 upgrade. This fix resolves an issue where the DAI Server would not start or allow user logins after the upgrade.

MinIO Migration Timeout Increased - The timeout for a MinIO migration is now 3 hours. Previously, the migration timeout was 1 hour.

Release 7.0 (July 2023)​

MinIO deployment upgrade​

An upgrade has been made to the latest stable release of MinIO. Upgrading an existing installation of DAI 6.5 to DAI 7.0 will bring about a migration of MinIO assets(mainly suites and screenshots) which may take up to an hour.

Agent redesigned​

The agent has been redesigned into separate dedicated agents for design and run. There are two types of agents, namely DAI Design Agent for uploading suites to DAI and executing tests in the designer, and DAI Run Agent for executing test configuration runs. Both agents are required.

[Windows Only] From version 7.0.0-0 onwards, if you have an older agent installed i.e. eggplantAIagent, it will be removed during the installation of either the newer DAI Design Agent or the newer DAI Run Agent.

Execution Environment List​

On the SUTs page, you no longer need to type the Execution Environment name that will be used by a SUT. You can now pick your Execution Environment from a list of Execution Environments that can also be filtered. You may also leave the Execution Environment field blank except for connections to Android and iOS devices.

SUT connection configuration​

Made it easier for you to avoid misconfiguring your connections. If RDP or VNC are the primary connections, then only Webdriver will be available as secondary connection and vice versa. There can only be one connection if Citrix, Sauce Labs Browser, Sauce Labs Browser, Android Device or iOS Device is selected.

Email notification by test result type​

Choose to receive email notification based on the type of test result; Pass, Fail, Error, Cancelled. By default all options are selected on creation of a test configuration.

Single Sign-On (ADFS with OIDC)​

Single Sign-On functionality for DAI will enable our users who use Active Directory configured over the OIDC protocol to control their users' access in a unified way. If you’re interested in learning more, please reach out to your Account Manager who can assist.

Source code management integration - GIT​

Support for GIT Integration has been added. This makes it possible for test runs to use scripts from GIT repositories. Does not support SVN.

Natively connect to Android and iOS devices​

This option is available in the SUT connection type list. Your device will connect through the Eggplant Gateway.

Filtering on test result page​

Filtering by suite added in test result page.

Security updates​

A number of security enhancements have been made to DAI 7.0, including the latest stable release of MinIO.

Known Issues​

When upgrading from DAI 6.5 you may need to manually end a process to allow the install to proceed, see Upgrading from DAI 6.5 for details.

Release 6.5​

Test Case result trend​

DAI provides a result trend of the last ten test runs in the test case view. This is an overview of test runs that have completed successfully or failed. The result trend will enable you to understand how well your test runs are performing. The trend also shows when the test was run and its duration.

Support for Citrix​

Added native support for Citrix Desktop connections

Support for Sauce Lab Devices​

Added native support for Sauce Labs Browser and Sauce Labs Real Devices (private and Public) in DAI.

Automatic Cleanup of DAI server logs​

DAI can be set to automatically delete DAI server log files.

Release 6.4​

Test Results by Email​

You can now receive notification of your test results by email. The results will show whether a test has been successful or not. Email notification will allow you to take prompt action and save you from having to constantly log into DAI to check the status of your test configuration runs.

Calendar View for Scheduling Test runs​

The new calendar provides you with full visibility of your test configuration schedules. The new calendar will facilitate optimisation of your execution environments according to availability of the environments and licenses.

Script-Based Test Cases​

Test cases with a sequence of scripts are now available in this release. You can quickly and easily create test cases with your scripts in a similar way to model based testing.

Migration of scripts referenced in Test Configurations

All script-based steps that were referenced from within Test Configurations will be migrated to Test Cases and these will be automatically included within the original Test Configuration. New script-based tests can also be created within Test Cases. Test Configurations will hold your script-based test cases.

The above changes align DAI with how you create Models and Test Configurations for Models.

The test results for migrated script test cases will be displayed in Test Results with the relevant suite name and test configuration (type). However, the suite name and type will be missing links to their suite and test configuration respectively. You will need to manually navigate to the relevant suite or test configuration if needed.

In addition, in the test results logs, the name of the scripts that were executed will not be available. This is because test results are not associated to test steps. However, once these test cases are run again, the details of the test steps will be available in the new test results.

Visibility of Suite Contents​

You can view the contents of your suites (files, images and resources) that are stored in DAI. You will also have details of the suites such as version and time when it was last updated. With this information, you can easily determine whether you are using the correct suite version.

SMTP Settings​

SMTP settings are now configurable within DAI.

Security​

A number of security updates have been made, including upgrades to Python (v3.11.3), Keycloak (v19.0.3) and the latest stable releases of PostgreSQL, Nginx, RabbitMQ and MinIO.

ノート

Previous versions of DAI shipped with a pre-configured Third Party Client client:dai:agent:integration. This has now been removed to enhance security. Users can create their own Third Party Client if needed instead.

Release 6.3​

Ability to edit test cases​

You are now able to edit existing test cases. You can add and remove test case steps anywhere in your test case.

Test results page displays environment details​

The execution environment against which your test ran is now shown in the test results page. If there are problems with the environment, the details of the environment can be more easily identified thereby facilitating troubleshooting.

Cancel test runs​

Live test runs can now be canceled more easily. Navigate to the test results page, find the test run that is in progress and that you wish to cancel and cancel it at a click of a button.

Cloning of test configuration​

Duplication of your test configuration is now possible. This will allow you to quickly build new test configurations.

Group Migration​

An access group with the same name as the user used to get automatically created for every user up until DAI version 6.3. We now allow sharing access to models directly with users and will no longer create those user-aligned access groups. With that design decision in mind, during the 6.3 upgrade process:

  • Groups not associated with any models get removed.
  • True user-aligned groups with only their original user as a member get removed.
  • Permissions of the removed true user-aligned groups get reassigned to their respective users.

Additionally, please note that:

  • If a user-aligned group has been renamed, it will remain in the system unchanged.
  • If there are multiple users in a user-aligned group, we prepend group_ to the name.
  • If the original user is no longer in the group or the system, but the group is and still has models associated with it, the group will remain unchanged.

Release 6.2.1 (28 July 2022)​

Return Test Results to CI/CD Pipeline​

DAI CI/CD integration can now return the results of tests triggered as part of your build pipeline, so that these can be viewed directly from the UI of your chosen build platform.

Visit the downloads page to begin your upgrade.

Release 6.2 (7 July 2022)​

Support Parameters in Test Configuration​

You are now able to pass parameters in your scheduled Test Configurations thereby allowing you to reuse your Test Configurations for different testing combinations.

Test Results Date Filter​

Test results can now be filtered by date. By using the date filter you can view your test results from a particular date, until a particular date or within a date range. This will make it easier for you to review your test results.

Model Preview​

The Model Preview has been further enhanced to provide you with more information about the model whilst it is being previewed. This will make it easier and quicker for you to understand the model that you are previewing.

Test Configuration Execution Logs​

Test configuration step execution logs are now available. This will provide you with the ability to see the details of each step during a test execution and will help you troubleshoot should your test run fail.

Windows Installer Logs​

The Windows installer runs the first time start-up sequence of the DAI Windows services to verify the installation. Logs of the installation status are streamed in the installer window. Upon completion, a summary report including the logs will indicate whether your installation and start-up of DAI was successful.

Delete all Results from a Single Test Config​

With a single click you are now able to delete all test results that correspond to a single Test Config run. All the associated artifacts including screenshots will be deleted. This will allow you to remove irrelevant or obsolete test results quickly.

Execution Environments​

Access to Execution Environments has been simplified and is no longer restricted according to which models you can access.

Visibility of SUT Passwords​

SUT passwords are no longer visible to ensure confidentiality and security.

Side Menu and Sub-menu​

The sub-menu items expand and collapse based on your input and not automatically as was previously the case. You will now be able to navigate through the menu options with greater ease.

Third Party Client Management for API Access​

It is now easier to create API access, download Access Keys, regenerate and delete API access. See how here

RCI User Journey View to Guide Test Case Creation​

You are able to view the user journey details.

Release 6.1 (25 April 2022)​

Usability​

Improved Test Cases​

Test cases are now easier to build, debug, and run so you can see results more quickly:

  • Build a test case directly from a model. Simply click on the parts of the model that you want to include. Built-in validation helps you to update missing or incorrect data.

Test Case builder

  • Run the test case against your model in debug mode to quickly find and resolve any outstanding issues.
  • View and analyze pass and fail results for each test case from a single screen.

Go to Designer > Test Cases and click Add New + to start using the new Test Case Builder. To save time, you can also duplicate and edit an existing test case rather than starting from scratch.

Test Case Migration​

To enable test case improvements, all existing test cases are migrated to a new database schema and are validated as part of the upgrade to DAI 6.1. During migration, the following characters are replaced by underscores (_) in all test case names: " \ ; : { }.

In some cases, test cases may fail validation, in which case they will not start. To continue to use these test cases, open them in the Test Case Builder and follow the on-screen text to resolve any errors.

Improved Test Results​

You can now go straight to a linked test case from the Test Results view. From the same view, you can also quickly remove test cases that you no longer need.

Common Navigation​

The Eggplant DAI navigation is now available on every page of the application to make it as easy as possible to switch between tasks.

Simplified Model Editing​

The toolbar in the Model workspace has been simplified for ease of use, and a top menu gives you shortcuts from the model you’re working on to other test resources.

Test Case builder

Other improvements​

  • The application version is now displayed on the System > Status page.
  • The process for importing user journeys from Real Customer Insights has been simplified. Go to Designer > User Journeys to see a full list of paths that are used to enhance your exploratory testing. From here, you can also delete individual journeys that are no longer required.
  • State and action variables are now renamed to parameters for consistency with Eggplant Functional.

Security​

Due to an upgrade of the identity and access management (IAM) system, the refresh token method for API authentication is no longer permitted.

Efficiency​

For enterprise users that deploy Eggplant DAI on Kubernetes using Helm, separate DAI databases can now be configured for each tenancy to reduce costs.

Bug Fixes & Improvements​

  • After installation of the Eggplant DAI Agent on a Windows 10 machine running Cloudstrike ATP software, the eggplantAIagent.exe is no longer uninstalled by the Cloudstrike software.
  • In Windows, the version number and publisher name are now correctly populated for the Eggplant DAI 6.0/6.0.1 Agent.

  • Fixes an issue with the agent where it tried to read the SSL certificates, even when the SSL Connection checkbox wasn't ticked.

Known Issues​

  • An error message appears when you try to edit a snippet on a connected agent and if that suite doesn't exist in the agent's suite location (either because it's been deleted, or the connected agent never had it).
  • The Eggplant DAI Agent may crash when using it on a Mac machine with external monitors connected. As a workaround, use the agent on the Mac, without moving the agent window to the external monitor.
  • Previously, the iterations for a model could be set to zero to run a model indefinitely. This behavior has been removed as part of our performance and scalability improvements.

Release 4.1 (12 May 2020)​

Features​

  • Adds the capability to upload suites to Eggplant DAI and to associate them with models for use in test execution. This feature also adds support in the following areas:
    • Execution Environment: Provides an option to upload and download suites via the AI Agent so that you can manage scripts and image assets associated with your models. If an execution environment has previously been used with a specific suite, only differences need to be uploaded, which helps speed up the execution.
    • Test Execution: If a model has a suite attached, a test configuration can be executed with an execution environment without any previous access to that suite.
    • Suites tab: View all suites that are available (via uploading suites in AI Agent) in your instance of Eggplant DAI.
    • Models tab: Associate suites to a model or modify an existing suite association.
  • Updates the Eggplant AI API:
    • Adds endpoints to associate a suite with a model.
    • Improves the Composer endpoint to allow you to:
      • Delete an asset from Eggplant DAI and any associated model asset from the AI API.
      • Get models and any associated suites.
    • Run and Abort endpoints now allow you to:
      • Cancel the suite download on an Agent.
      • Specify an asset version while downloading it.

UI Improvements​

  • The Eggplant DAI UI now reports errors when a SUT Connection fails.
  • Links to Test Results in the Dashboard are now filtered by model.

Bug Fixes​

  • Fixes a performance issue that caused delays with starting the execution of test cases.
  • Fixes an issue where some test configurations with failed statuses reported as passed.
  • Fixes an issue with previous test cases not clearing in a test configuration after the model selection is changed.
  • Fixes an issue with the Agent Command window appearing in debug mode.
  • Resolves an issue with SUT connection failing Test Case steps.
  • Improves error handling for large volumes of scheduled test configurations.
  • Fixes an issue with agent that showed tests that weren't executing in In Progress state.
  • Resolves the issue with the agent not running test configurations despite being set to Run mode.
  • Test configurations no longer get stuck in the Canceling state.

Known Issues​

  • After upgrading to Eggplant DAI, it is recommended to:
    • Wait for some time after the installation of Eggplant DAI to launch it in your browser, to ensure the database and services are up and running.
    • Perform a hard refresh on your browser.
  • Do not enable the Eggplant Functional GUI check box from the agent when using the Run mode, if the Eggplant DAI GUI is running several tests on an Execution Environment (e.g., a scheduled run in Eggplant DAI > Runner tab) as continuous opening and closing of SUT connections may cause problems with Eggplant Functional.
  • If a suite is uploaded without helper suites and modified later to refer to Helper suites, then you should follow this sequence while uploading the suite:
    • Delete the main suite that has a dependency on the helper suite.
    • Add the helper suite and then upload the main suite back.

Release 4.0.1 (17 February 2020)​

Features​

  • Runner enhancements:
    • Adds a new in-progress icon if the status of the test configuration is in progress.
    • Adds the option to view detailed results of passed, failed, and in-progress test runs along with a donut chart representing the total number of passed, failed, and incomplete runs.
  • The Eggplant DAI Installer includes an option that allows Eggplant to collect usage statistics from the users. You can disable this option by clearing the Report usage statistics checkbox (only available if the Run Advanced Install Configuration checkbox is enabled).
  • You can now download server logs with a single click in Eggplant DAI.

Bug fixes​

  • Test configurations now resume after suspending or restarting a machine.
  • The ping messages on the Agent dialog are displayed as before.

Known Issues​

  • Selecting the Run cleanup after abort option in the Settings dialog doesn't initiate the cleanup script if you abort your test run.
  • If you have test configurations running simultaneously with SUTs that are not tied to a specific Execution Environment (agent), you may get an Unable to make a connection to the Agent error. Therefore, it is recommended to separate your test configurations by at least one minute, or use SUTs tied to specific Execution Environments.

Release 4.0 (20 December 2019)​

This is the first release of Eggplant DAI.

Features​

  • Schedule and track test executions through the Runner tab.
  • Create and execute Test Configurations that combine directed test cases with exploratory testing.
  • Limit exploratory testing by duration, number of iterations, or a coverage target so that tests run until one of these conditions is met.
  • Configure and reserve systems under test (SUTs) for testing.

Known Issues​

  • SUT connections don't disconnect after task execution. This can cause problems for users with RDP configurations. To work around this issue, either manually disconnect from the Connection List before the next test run, or add a disconnect snippet to your model.
  • The agent isn't receiving ping messages from the server.
