Comparing the equivalence of PDF files and texts
We are excited to announce the ability to effortlessly compare PDF files and various text pieces using designated comparison types and rules. You can choose to compare documents and texts based on lines, characters, or words. Additionally, you have the option to establish custom rules, employing either regular expressions or wildcard syntax, for the purpose of excluding specific content segments from the comparison process.
To increase flexibility in your automation projects, the ability to compare documents and texts is available for both low-code and coded automations. Refer to the following resources to understand how to use Testing activities and APIs in comparing documents and texts:
Release date: 18 July 2024
- Fixed the behavior of the
ContinueOnFailure
parameter, which erroneously triggered an error during coded workflow execution. - The values of
takeScreenshotInCaseOfFailingAssertion
andtakeScreenshotInCaseOfSucceedingAssertion
parameters were previously ignored when using the Verify APIs. - The Testing configurations made in the Studio Project Settings weren't applied in the context of coded automations.
Release date: 1 July 2024
Added 2 July 2024: Fixed the behavior of the Get Test Data Queue Item activity which did not return more than 1000 queue items.
New Verify APIs
To help you automate more of your testing process, we've added new APIs for verifying your testing scenarios. Check the following table showing the new APIs that you can use:
API | Description |
---|---|
VerifyAreEqual | Verifies if two expressions are equal. |
VerifyAreNotEqual | Verifies if two expressions are not equal. |
VerifyContains | Verifies if the first expression contains the second expression. |
VerifyIsGreater | Verifies that the first expression is greater than the second expression. |
VerifyIsGreaterOrEqual | Verifies that the first expression is greater than or equal to the second expression. |
VerifyIsLess | Verifies that the first expression is less than the second expression. |
VerifyIsLessOrEqual | Verifies that the first expression is less than or equal to the second expression. |
VerifyIsRegexMatch | Verifies if the first expression is a regex match to the second expression. |
New or updated overloads for the existent Verify APIs
To simplify your testing efforts, we've added new overloads for the VerifyExpression, VerifyExpressionWithOperator, and VerifyRange APIs. The following table displays the API and their new or updated overloads.
API | Overload |
---|---|
VerifyExpression | VerifyExpression(bool, string) |
VerifyExpressionWithOperator |
|
VerifyRange |
|
Release date: 23 October 2023
Testing APIs
If you prefer to code when building automations, you can now achieve this using coded automations and UiPath services! You can create coded automations using the UiPath services such as Testing.Activities, offering you APIs to use in your automation projects.
Visit the Testing APIs section to browse through the available APIs and Coded Automations Introduction to learn how to create coded automations.
Release Date: 5 December 2022
Release Date: 24 October 2022
Updated internal dependencies to match the newest version of UIAutomation.
Release Date: 26 August 2022
You can now use the Verify Range activity to test expressions in a given range, so you can have more control over attributes in your testing worflows.
Release Date: 8 July 2022
- Testing Activities are now included in every project type by default to bring testing capabilities into view.
- Redesigned the Add Test Data Queue Item activity to support fields with user-defined names.
- Added Delete Test Data Queue Items activity so you can remove test data queues through Studio workflows.
- Added Get Test Data Queue Items activity so you can get specific test data queue items.
- Added the option to mark queue items as Consumed for the Get Test Data Queue Item activity.
Release Date: 9 May 2022
- A workflow configured to make an API call resulted in error in the production environment due to a versioning issue of the Newtonsoft.Json dependency. This issue affected version 2021.4 and older versions of Studio and Robot.
- SAP Session Trigger error messages were not localized.
- Executing a test case containing a Verify Expression activity in Cloud Orchestrator failed.
- Adding and then removing activities such as Element Exists or Find Element within a Verify Control Attribute resulted in validation errors.
Release Date: 27 October 2021
- A
Tag
property has been added to the Attach Document activity to mark files that have been attached to test executions. - The Testing Activities now support cross-platform projects.
- .NET 5 support is now enabled for this activity package as part of our overall upgrade to this framework.
Release Date: 26 April 2021
New Rules
The following Application Testing Workflow Analyzer Rules are available so you can maintain the same level of automation for projects that have multiple stakeholders:
- Test Case Name Not Unique Within Project (TA-NMG-001) - Check whether a test case is unique or not, regardless of its location folder or subfolder.
- Test Case Naming Convention Broken (TA-NMG-002) - Check for test cases that match a specific RegEx.
- Missing Verifications Within the Test Case (TA-DBP-001) - Check for a defined minimum and maximum number of verifications for your test cases.
- Untested Workflows (TA-DBP-002) - Check for workflows that do not have at least one assigned test case.
- Test Manager Connected (TA-DBP-003) - Check for RPA test cases that are not linked to a test case in Test Manager.
- Unused Mocking (TA-DBP-004) - Check if the mock workflows have at least one mock activity.
- Test Case Without Annotations (TA-DBP-005) - Check for RPA test cases without a single annotation.
- Test Case/Workflow Too Complex (TA-DBP-006 - Check for test case and workflow files that exceed a specified number of steps (activities).
- Test Case Includes Too Many Branches (TA-DBP-007) - Checks if a test case is using any If statements.
- Now you can attach documents to your test execution results for a verifiable outcome, as part of your audit trail. For more information, see .
The Verify Expression, Verify Control Attribute and Verify Expression with Operator activities have new properties that add additional capabilities:
- You can configure the format of your output message.
- You can set an alternative name for your verification activities to show up in Orchestrator.
- Create reports or notify stakeholders if the verification activity has failed.
Release Date: 13 October 2020
You can now create synthetic test data to support your testing efforts. For example, this comes in handy when production data cannot be used for testing purposes, due to data regulations such as GDPR. Creating your artificial data provides high coverage and is easy to reproduce, as opposed to copying or anonymizing existing production data.
To learn how to create synthetic test data, see the following new activities:
Release Date: 6 May 2020
The first iteration of the Testing activities pack offers three activities designed to enable verification of logical expressions and control attributes in your testing workflows. The new activities are:
