Potential compatibility issues are highlighted in RED.

Compatibility​

Mac: macOS 10.15, macOS 10.14, macOS 10.13, macOS 10.12.

Windows: 64-bit distributions only. Windows 10, Windows 7, Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2008.

Linux: 64-bit distributions only. Ubuntu 16. Red Hat 7. CentOS 7.

Ports: TCP 5052-5054. For SUTs: RDP: 3389. VNC: 5900. WebDriver: 4444.

Notes​

  • Eggplant Functional will no longer support Windows 7 starting in 2021.
  • Red Hat 6 or CentOS 6 are no longer supported.
  • The optical character recognition (OCR) engine was updated in Eggplant Functional 20.0. This change might require you to make changes to existing tests that use OCR.
  • A bug exists in the MySQL Connector for ODBC 8.0 on Windows 10 systems that causes Eggplant Functional to crash when connecting to an ODBC database. The crash typically occurs when connecting for the second time. See the MySQL forums here for any updates on the status of this issue from MySQL. The only known workaround is to use the older version 5.3 connector instead.
  • Direct connections to Android devices using ADB from Eggplant Functional are no longer supported as of 20.1. Instead, use the Android Gateway.
  • Scheduler functionality will be removed in a future release of Eggplant Functional, as this functionality will be available as part of Eggplant DAI.

Release 20.2.1 (15 Sept 2020)​

Features​

Bug Fixes​

  • Fixes several RDP bugs related to transport errors with certain security configurations.
  • Fixes an issue where any command line parameters passed into Eggplant Functional via the runscript command would cause all Gherkin tests to be skipped.
  • Gherkin tags require being preceded by an @ symbol. Individual or groupings of tags will not be used when running Gherkin tests if an @ symbol is missing.
  • Fixes an error that would occur while parsing JSON of WebDriver capabilities.

Release 20.2.0 (26 August 2020)​

Features​

  • New Auto Update functionality allows saving of changes made with the addition of a new Auto Update panel:

    • The new Auto Update panel allows the user to review and accept any search setting changes Studio made in the process of executing a script, saving them for future use.
    • This functionality is associated with Image Update and controlled from the same menu. For more information, see Enabling the Image Update Panels.
    • Image changes are made directly from the panel. OCR remedies are displayed but changes must be applied to the script manually.
    • This panel is accessible from the Results pane of the Suite window as a new column in the script run list titled Remedy, allowing the user to review the changes at their convenience.

  • New Tell Command in SenseTalk:

    • This flow control command alters the message passing path for other commands. It can be used on individual commands or blocks of code, and can also be nested.

  • The CaptureScreen Command now provides support for image format and size setting changes to screenshots captured at runtime. This can be done in-line in the script with new property options, or using one of three new related global properties:

  • Now provides new Eggplant Functional Script Preferences for the standardization of lists using the new list formatting introduced in Eggplant Functional 20.1.

  • Customer Sourced Improvements:

    • Adds SenseTalk support for API tests targeting endpoints that use Transport Layer Security (TLS) version 1.2. For more information, see API Testing in Eggplant Functional.
    • Now when a Windows Remote Desktop connection drops, the default is for it to not automatically try to reconnect.
    • Now supports an RDP session closing when the remote user logs off, via a defaults setting.

Bug Fixes​

  • Addresses many defects around RDP Remote Clipboard use.
  • A sharing violation no longer occurs while accessing C:\tmp\FRE_Data\UserDictionaries\xxx.ame.
  • Addresses compatibility with Android Gateway and Appium in Studio.
  • Properly creates an OCR temp file created in the default suite directory.
  • Addresses memory growth with connect/disconnect cycles (The problem remains on Windows 7).
  • Addresses a crash when retrieving Results in some situations.
  • Removes the the NSError-initWithDomain:code:userInfo log entry when hovering over a string in an Eggplant Functional script.
  • Fixes an issue with the PATCH API testing command not working on Windows and Linux.
  • Properly handles the use of the SwitchToFrame command in WebDriver testing.
  • Improves performance (excessive reads) from the ImageLastFoundDates function.
  • Properly receives a Status code when running API tests on Windows.
  • Addresses an issue where the Crash log submission form tried to display in headless execution mode.
  • Improves the error message for failed OCR reads to say "Text not found."
  • Provides an appropriate error message when doing a Git Pull in Studio.
  • Addresses the NSInvalidArgumentException seen in some instances where the OCR Update panel should open.

Known Issue​

  • Windows 7 shows memory growth when doing many connect/disconnect cycles.

Release 20.1.0 (16 April 2020)​

Features​

  • Adds auto-classification of UI elements based on a trained machine learning model:

    • A trained model now ships with the Fusion Engine to automatically classify elements on the screen during an Autoscan session.
    • Enables our users to get from autoscan to autosnippet generation for Eggplant DAI integration in fewer clicks.
    • This functionality is available on Mac, Windows, and Ubuntu. It is not available for CentOS.

  • Adds new color themes for SenseTalk, and improves organization of the Eggplant Functional Script Preferences:

    • Adds three new color themes.
    • Improves Eggplant Classic color theme.
    • Themes are now stored in a new JSON file that allows users to easily share their preferred syntax coloring across the team.
    • Adds Default, Background, and Token colors along with other text format controls.
    • Color themes can be modified in the Eggplant Functional Script Preferences Theme tab. Colorization of Feature Files, API test scripts, and Multi-Case If statements is not supported.

  • Adds support for Auto-Complete of Handlers and Helper Suites:

    • Adds support for predictive suggestions for Handlers and Helper suites in the Fusion Engine.
    • Auto-completion using drag-and-drop from the scripts pane to the script editor is not supported.
    • For more, see Auto-Completion.

  • Introduces new formatting for lists and property lists. The default list format now uses square brackets [], and property lists use curly braces . Single-line lists can still use parentheses. This reduces confusion making scripts easier to read.

  • Customer-Sourced Improvements:

  • Adds support for smart card authentication with RDP connections on Windows. For information about this feature, please contact your Eggplant representative.

  • Adds support for JapaneseModern language dictionary for use with OCR. Please note, issues displaying Japanese characters may occur if the appropriate fonts are not installed on the Eggplant Functional machine. For a full list of languages supported for use with OCR, see OCR Language Support.

Bug Fixes​

  • Windows keyboard shortcuts of Ctrl + click and Shift + click now follow expected OS guidelines.

  • Tags/Parameters are now passed correctly when a Gherkin feature is run from Eggplant Manager via the command line. If running Gherkin Features from the command line, any parameters passed in the command line call (including tests executed via Eggplant Manager) will take precedence over tags passed as parameters in a SenseTalk script.
  • Fixes an issue where RDP connections could not be established in some specific environments.
  • Attempting to make an RDP connection no longer throws an "ERRBASE_SUCCESS" error.
  • Fixes an issue where scripts could appear to jump when editing a handler.
  • Indentation of scripts now properly works on continuation lines.
  • SenseTalk no longer incorrectly warns the user of a proper try/catch block via Check Script functionality.
  • A screenshot can now be acquired during a long-running ExecuteWithTimeout Eggdrive call.
  • Image completion suggestions from a helper no longer include the suite name as an image collection.
  • The appearance of a pop-up while a VNC connection is open no longer crashes CentOS 7.
  • Opening the Output Timing Results no longer crashes on Ubuntu or CentOS 7.
  • JSON now throws an exception when sending non-JSON formatted strings to the JSONValue() function in SenseTalk, including incorrect boolean strings.
  • The JSONValue() function no longer accepts an empty string.
  • Fixes number formatting when using the JSONFormat() function in SenseTalk, so that it no longer puts the numerical values in quotes.
  • Fixes a SenseTalk hang in Windows when setting an incorrect value to defaultStringEncoding, defaultDataFromat, booleanComparison, or unitsMode.
  • A correct error message is now displayed to the user when an attempt is made to run a git pull and it is not possible.
  • Fixes a crash when skipping steps and using OCR in a Turbo Capture session on Windows.
  • Fixes an issue with Autoscan when running against a screenshot connection. It will now return non-DOM elements if the connection is not a tutorial SUT or phone SUT.

Release 20.0.1 (11 March 2020)​

Bug Fixes​

  • Fixes several issues with OCR searches behaving differently than in Eggplant Functional 19.2.x.
  • Fixes an issue with the script editor jumping in position while typing.
  • Fixes some incorrect warnings in the Script Checker.
  • Fixes an issue with the Save As keyboard shortcut.
  • Fixes several memory leaks and crashes.

Release 20.0.0 (11 December 2019)​

Features​

  • Adds new optical character recognition (OCR) tuning interfaces to help determine the appropriate settings to use for reading text and searching for text.
  • Upgrades the OCR engine.
  • Improves management of user-defined OCR text styles.
  • Adds several new timeZone tokens that can be used in date/time formats: [long timeZone], [short timeZone], [long timeZoneName], [short timeZoneName], [abbreviated timeZoneName], [timeZone City], [timeZoneID], [long timeZoneID], [short timeZoneID], [timeZoneISO], [long timeZoneISO], [short timeZoneISO].

Bug Fixes​

  • Fixes various date/time formatting issues:
    • Changes the local time, long local time, and long dateItems time formats to use the new [timeZoneID] token instead of [timeZoneName] for displaying the time zone. This will display the time zone using the more universallyrecognized IANA identifier.
    • Fixes date recognition to be more lenient about how it interprets a date string using a given format, including being more flexible about spaces between elements and before and after a date string. The iso8601 format recognizes a wider range of date/time strings.
    • Fixes recognition of dates that don’t include the year (i.e., "March 16") to assume the current year.
    • Fixes a bug with the dayOfCommonEra function.
  • Fixes intermittent crashes that occurred when connecting to and disconnecting from RDP SUTs.
  • Fixes problems connecting to Eggplant Automation Cloud RDP SUTs.
  • Fixes some RDP clipboard problems.

Other Notes​

  • The Text Image Generator (TIG) interface has been removed, but the underlying code remains for any users still relying on that functionality.
