Chaos testing with Gremlin

LoadRunner Cloud now supports the addition of Gremlin scenarios to your load test. This enables simulated attacks on your services and environments, so that you can integrate chaos and stress testing into your test runs.

For details, see Configure disruption events.

Load test distribution templates

You now have the option to save your configuration of locations, distributions, and network emulations as a template, in the Cloud tab of the load test's Load distribution page. The template can easily be used in any load test within the same project, by any member of the project.

For details, see Configure cloud load generator locations.

Extended support for runtime settings

Bulk updates of runtime settings is now supported for scripts. You can select multiple scripts and update the runtime settings for all the selected scripts at the same time.

This capability is currently only supported for Web HTTP and TruClient scripts.

For details, see Bulk runtime settings.

Automatic script labels assignment

Direct assignment of labels to scripts on upload is now supported in LoadRunner Cloud. When you highlight labels or sub-labels in the Assets > Scripts page and then upload a script, the highlighted labels are automatically assigned to the newly uploaded script.

Enhanced Azure DevOps integration

The integration with Azure DevOps has been extended and now provides you with the option to run a test in detached mode.
