Release date: Month Day, 2024

Using the AI Assistant to Create Tests

The AI Assistant can analyze RESTful service definitions and automatically create SOAtest tests for you, including suggesting multiple test scenarios, parameterizing payloads, and even populating payload data for you. See Creating Tests with the AI Assistant for more information.

Manual Testing in CTP

The Manual Testing module allows you to import manual tests from a CSV file and associate them with a CTP system so you can refer to them later when executing test sessions. In addition, you can start a session for any of the environments in the Manual Testing module to use when doing your manual tests. See Manual Testing for more information.

Additional Updates

• Support for Windows 10 has been deprecated.
• Support for the Java Virtualization Agent marketplace extension is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
• CTP's licensing tiers for coverage agents has changed. All users now have access to up to five coverage agents, with seven new tiers allowing access to between 25 and 500 coverage agents.

  See Installing and Running CTP#About License Features for more information.

• The CTP Asset Utilization Report now includes coverage agents.

  See Viewing the Asset Utilization Report for more information.

• Explicit support for Parlay / Parlay-X has been removed. 

  If needed, it can still be achieved by using custom XPath correlations in the Call Back tool.

Breaking Changes

• The Parasoft JDBC driver now supports applications compiled against Java 11 or later. It will no longer support older Java versions.
• The Attachment Handler will now pass a DataHandler input to Extension Tools instead of a String. See Attachment Handler for more information.
