In this release, we've added new features, functionality, and improvements to Unit Test Assistant (UTA).
Unit Test Assistant Enhancements
Support for Bulk Creation of Spring Tests
We've added support for creating multiple Spring tests to help you optimize the Spring test creation process; see Creating Test Suites.
Added Support for Factory Methods During Test Creation
You can now configure UTA to use the factory methods that are available in your code to further increase efficiency and productivity of the test creation process. We've added a new dedicated Factory Methods View to the UTA interface that allows you to review and manage the factory methods that will be used during test generation. See Configuring Factory Methods.
Added Multiple UTA Views
The Unit Test Assistant interface has been split into individual views to let you more conveniently create, enhance and run your tests with UTA; see Enabling the Unit Test Assistant Interface.
Other Enhancements
- We've added a new UI option to improve performance. Now Jtest can launch on IDE startup to speed up the first analysis; see Enabling and Configuring the Engine.
- We've extended our support for the OWASP standard and added the new OWASP Top 10 2017 built-in configuration.
