What's new in OpenText Functional Testing Lab

The 25.2 release includes new features and enhancements to browser and mobile testing.

Connector auto-update

After you upgrade your connectors to version 25.2, they update automatically in the future whenever an update or newer version is installed on the server. This keeps connectors up to date, without manual intervention, saving time and effort.
