Release notes for Automation Suite robots on Automation Suite 2023.4.
Release date: April 26, 2023
Testing runtime for Automation Suite Robots
We have improved the way you can test Automation Suite Robots. We have introduced the possibility of choosing between your Production (Unattended) license and your Testing license to run unattended jobs. Just like before, you can continue to use your Production (Unattended) license to run unattended processes in production environments. What has changed is that the Testing license now allows you to run test sets and test cases, while also enabling you to run unattended processes.
You simply need to allocate the desired license to an Automation Suite Robot machine template in Orchestrator. Just keep in mind that the number of allocated licenses dictates the number of jobs that the backend can execute in parallel.
Wondering how this is reflected in the Orchestrator UI? First, you will see that the runtime details are displayed for both production and testing when configuring your machine. Second, when executing automations, you now need to specify whether you want to use Production (Unattended) or Testing as a runtime license.
