v7.3 [Apr 12, 2020]
- Dynamic Test Infrastructure with Kubernetes, AKS, and EKS: NeoLoad’s Dynamic Infrastructure is the capability to interact with container orchestrators, currently OpenShift, Kubernetes, Microsoft AKS and Amazon EKS, to provision and use load testing infrastructure automatically, on demand.
- Tricentis Tosca Web Tests as Performance Tests: Previously, NeoLoad released the capability to convert SAP GUI functional tests created in Tosca, to performance tests in NeoLoad. Now, NeoLoad can convert any web tests (not limited to SAP) created in Tosca too. With one click, Tosca web or SAP GUI functional tests can be exported and converted into performance tests.
- Support for SAP GUI test analysis has been enhanced. When exporting or re-exporting an SAP GUI test, you now have the option to automatically create a Neoload Transaction for each SAP TCode detected in your test.
- The install process has also been simplified.
Citrix Enhancements: NeoLoad contains several improvements to ease recording and maintenance of Citrix applications testing:
- Update recorded content now effective for Citrix.
- Additional tolerance level for image detection.
- Constant variable for Citrix timeout.
- Support of NoPrivileges LG launcher for Terminal Services.
- Set back focus to Citrix client after NL citrix capture.
- Screenshot comparison panel to help identify differences between the recording and the playback.
- New public API v2 for NeoLoad Web: A new version of the public API now enables a much more powerful and more flexible automation of tests in the context of continuous integration and continuous load testing.
Changes to the API:
- New Tests related functions (create, update, upload project, list, delete).
- Running a test is now on the Test (“/tests/{testId}/start) .
- Ability to stop a running test (“/test-results/{resultId}/stop) .
- Test result related functions renamed from “/tests/” to “/test-results/”.
Other Enhancements.
- Force release – When it’s not possible to release a license lease from NeoLoad Web normally, you can now request Neotys support to unlock the lease.
- When launching a test in the context of a reservation for a group, only group members can stop the test in NeoLoad Web.
- New JUnit Report Format – NeoLoad can generate a JUnit report for the SLA results for command line tests. When using ‘-SLAJUnitResults’ the old format is kept for backward compatibility. When using ‘-SLAJunitReport’, the XML grammar has been fixed to be compatible with more tools handling JUnit format and the way JUnit tests are named and structured is more actionable.
- NeoLoad Web users now have the ability to pick licensed Citrix or SAP VUs to run their Web tests.
- The screenshot comparison panel now helps identify differences between the recording, the playback or debugging – for any action that has a screenshot (Web Pages, Citrix, SAP GUI …).
v6.9 [Apr 25, 2019]
- As code: You can now define and use SLAs in NeoLoad’s as code tests and immediately determine if your API tests have met the expected level of performance.
- Worksoft Integration: Easily reuse SAP GUI and Web functional tests designed in Worksoft to automatically build and maintain performance tests.
- Load Generator busy status: When running a test from the NeoLoad Controller, determine at a glance Load Generators actually available for testing; those that are being used by other tests are clearly identified as busy.
- Multivalued extractor: During design, easily extract values from a multivalued variable to later reinject one of those values in the User Path’s logic.
