What's new in Twist?

1.0 General Availability Release

    Cut/copy/paste Workflow and Workflow steps

    You can now cut, copy and paste a complete Workflow within Twist. Also a part of a workflow, a Workflow Step, can be cut/copy-pasted and the import of fixtures used in these steps is taken care off automatically.

    Cut, copy, paste Tables and in Table cell

    A complete Business Rules Table can be moved/copied across scenarios. You can also cut, copy or paste individual cell values are within a table.

    Local report generation

    You can now configure Twist to have local reports generated, when you execute scenarios. You can use these reports to maintain a history of test execution. See more at HTML Reports.

    Inline Reporting on test execution

    Execution of a Scenario can be visibly traced through inline reporting on the scenario. It shows the point of execution and associated result as and when it occurs and provides overall execution results on the Execution View and the Stack Trace. See more at Inline Reporting

    Ability to associate or disassociate multiple tags to scenarios

    A feature to “Manage Tags” can be used to add/remove multiple tags on single or multiple scenarios. See more at Manage Tags.

    Enhancements to the Recorder

    Recording is now made possible on Firefox Chrome mode. The enhanced Recorder, uses variables instead of hardcoded values. The object locators are externalized. See more at Web Recorder and Selenium.
