Release highlights
Remote Jobs Trigger
This highly requested Xray Enterprise feature triggers CI/CD builds without ever leaving Xray.
Multiple remote triggers management
Users can manage multiple build parameters and configurations and streamline their test execution for manual and automated tests. A new configuration page is available at the project-level settings, allowing multiple configurations for the main CI/CD platforms and specific parameters to allow a more precise build control.

One-click Remote Jobs Triggering
Testers can reduce wasted time and the overhead of switching between multiple tools by automating the test process and reporting results with a simple push of a button. Simply select a configured job in Xray from the Test Plan or Test Execution, and the results are published after the job runs remotely. Remote job triggering can bridge the gap between manual and automated tests for broader quality lifecycle management.

Just one more, yet important, thing...
Documentation is always important, and sometimes you may miss it. We added a set of relevant articles to our already extensive documentation.
In this release, we have created a new section dedicated to the brand-new Test Case Designer (available on Xray Enterprise). You will find many articles full of tips related to test modeling, and pairwise and n-wise testing.
We also invested in refining some existing Xporter and Document Generator templates, documenting some of them, so you can use them as-is or customize them to your own test reporting needs.
There's also a new open-source Maven plugin, made from scratch, with plenty of new features that the community can further evolve; this one replaces and deprecates the previous proprietary Maven plugin.
Here's a summary of all the relevant articles that we've added and updated recently:
- Tutorials, Tips, and Tricks
- TTT: Test Case Designer
- TTT: Automation
- TTT: Document Generator and Xporter
- TTT: Integration
- Integrations
- Integration with Maven (new open-source plugin)
- Integration with Gradle
- A curated list of Xporter Templates
- A curated list of Document Generator Templates
