SV Lab integration (tech preview)

You can now use SV Lab in LeanFT tests written in Java.

SV Lab can simulate web services that your application interacts with, enabling you to test the application in various scenarios, even if the services are not ready, or you need to test conditions that are currently unavailable.

For details, see the SV Lab topics in Service Virtualization Help Center.

    Note: Requires both the Oracle Add-in and the Web Add-in.

Additional improvements and fixes

  • If you run tests remotely over a secure connection, you no longer need to configure a single TLS protocol to use. The LeanFT runtime engine uses the latest TLS protocol that is supported by both client and server. For details, see Set up the remote computer.

    Note: This is now the default behavior if you do not configure the connection-securityOptions.

  • When launching a Chrome or Firefox browser from your test, you can now specify a proxy server and port for the browser to use.

    Launch the browser using a BrowserDescription that includes the following property-value pair: "profile_proxy" = "http://<proxy server address>:<port number>".

    For example (C#):

    var browserDescription = new BrowserDescription { Type = BrowserType.Firefox };
broswerDescription.Set("profile_proxy", "http://15.35.84.350:8888");
var browser = BrowserFactory.Launch(browserDescription);

    Note: The browser is launched using a separate profile. This means, for example, that it opens in a new browser window and does not share cookies with other browsers.

  • Similarly, when launching a Chrome or Firefox browser from your test, you can indicate whether to use a temporary profile for this browser. To use a temporary profile, add a profile capability with true a value to your browser description. Set the profile value to false to explicitly disable the use of a temporary profile (this is the default behavior).
