Downgrading from Xray 5.x.x


Expand
titleDowngrading to any version

Downgrading from Xray 5.x.x to a previous version will have the following side-effects on Test Runs with a dataset:

  • Test parameters will no longer be converted on the Test Run page, this includes Test Step definitions and Pre-Conditions;
  • When loading a Test Run created on version 5.x.x, the merge/reset message will be displayed;
  • When merging a Test Run created on version 5.x.x with the new Test Step definition, all Test Step results will be updated but the reset/merge message will still be displayed;
  • A Test Run created on version 5.x.x with iterations will be displayed in a "flat mode." . The iterations will no longer be available and all the Test Step results from each iteration will be presented on the Test Steps section;
  • After the downgrade, the integrity checker will fail on "Check for invalid Mementos" for all Test Runs created on version 5.x.x. We recommend running the integrity checker before downgrading to get rid of possible invalid mementos.

Group defects and evidence on the execution screen

Column

Column
width30%

It is now possible to aggregate all defects and evidence on the overall top panel within the execution screen. This way, both the global defects and the defects associated with steps will be shown on the same panel, making it easier to view all the defects created during execution. The same is also true with for evidence.

This feature is optional and you can disable it within the execution screen.

Search Test Steps

Searching for text within Test Steps of a manual Test case is now easier with the addition of a dedicated search field.

The browser search might not be a good solution because not all the steps are loaded at a given time due to performance reasons. Also, the steps might be collapsed.

Therefore, we have now included this search field that allows you to search in within all Test Steps. This includes all Xray native fields (e.g. Action, Data, Expected Result) and also Test Step custom fields.

In this release, you may find new articles to facilitate integration with well-known CI/CD tools, including Travis CI and GitHub. We added also tutorials for Playwright, Cypress, WebdriverIO with corresponding open-source repositories, so you can easily try out those these frameworks and integrate with Xray to have visibility of test automation results. You may find the code for these tutorials, and more, in our GitHub account. Check them out and let us know your feedback (smile) 

A new section was created for Model-Based testing along with some tutorials.

Here's a sum-up summary of all the relevant articles that we've added and updated recently:
