This release includes the following enhancements:

Release date: May 29, 2024

Test Impact Analysis Enhancements

• You can now enable continuous discovery and execution of impacted tests. Jtest will automatically notify you about test failures and changes in the covered code under development; see Test Impact Analysis.
• The test impact analysis capabilities in Jtest have been made more precise. Impacted tests are now calculated based on modified methods rather than modified classes. Additionally, code changes that do not affect the code logic no longer result in tests being detected as impacted.
• Impacted tests can now be calculated based on a wider range of methods to determine modified code, including determination of modified methods by analyzing Git commit history in addition to local modifications made in the IDE. For configuration details, see Test Impact Analysis.

Unit Test Assistant Enhancements

• Jtest introduces test templates which enable you to control the structure of test classes in order to specify common configurations that are required for your particular tests. You can configure the template for the test class and test method individually. The templates can be configured in the Unit Test Assistant preferences; see Configuring Preferences.
• The capability to create tests for modified methods has been expanded to support determination of modified methods by analyzing Git commit history in addition to local modifications made in the IDE. For configuration details, see Creating Test Suites.
• Support for @Timeout annotations in Junit 5 has been added.

OpenAI Integration

• Recommendations for Flow Analysis violations have been enhanced with OpenAI integration.
• OpenAI responses can now be translated into Chinese or Japanese; see Improving Tests with AI.

Code Coverage Enhancements

• Improved support for thread tracking in application coverage for multiuser mode.
• Performance while collecting coverage in IDE has been improved. You can now monitor coverage while executing impacted tests.

Support for Android Kotlin

• Jtest now supports test execution and collecting coverage from Android Kotlin projects.
• Jtest test impact analysis also experimentally supports Android Kotlin test execution from the command line.

Support for Java 21

Support for Java 21 has been added:

• Jtest can now analyze and test code compliant with Java 21 or earlier.
• Unit tests can be created for code compliant with Java 21 or earlier.
