SQUASH TM 1.22

Version not supported anymore.

Release date:

2020-12-31

Release note:

(* If you are upgrading to 1.22.3, remember to pass all of the embedded upgrade scripts: "<database>-upgrade-to-1.22.0.sql", "<database>-upgrade-to-1.22.2.sql", "<database>-upgrade-to-1.22.3.sql", "<database>-upgrade-to-1.22.4.sql")

​

  • Administration API
    S    quash's functional administration features are now available in a dedicated Rest API
     

  • Xsquash4Jira
    Xsquash4Jira now embeds its own API that allows to configure the plugin (requires the API administration plugin to work)

​​

  • Xsquash (Server and Cloud)
    The latest version of Xsquash supports the display of test cases in BDD format.
    Test automation status and dataset names have also been added to the "Squash TM Test Cases" and "Squash TM Runs" tabs respectively.

​​

  • Test case management in BDD format and action library
    This new test case format is based on the Gherkin syntax and allows you to write your BDD scenarios using a simple and intuitive interface.
    The actions contained in the test steps can be variabilized and reused in test cases from different projects.
    When transmitted to the automation engineer, the scripts associated with the BDD test cases are converted into a format corresponding to the target implementation technology (Cucumber or Robot Framework). The choice of the technology has no impact for the user when writing the test cases.

​​

  • Action library plugin (included in the Squash AUTOM license)
    This Squash TM plugin is compatible with version 1.22 and allows to manage the actions contained in the test cases in BDD format in a new space. From this space, it is possible to consult the test cases using an action and the information related to its implementation.
    This plugin also facilitates the writing of test cases in BDD format by proposing the actions already present in the library and corresponding to the user's input by auto-completion.

​​

  • Consultation of automated suites
    At the level of iterations and test suites, a new tab allows you to view the history of automated suites (a set of automated tests launched at the same time).
    For each automated suite, the user can consult the global execution status, the details of the tests executed and access the execution report of all the tests.
