RemoteLaunchX 5.0 Released for Cross-Platform Testing

5-Feb-2020 by Inflectra Product News

We are pleased to announce the release of RemoteLaunch X 5.0, our cross-platform agent for orchestrating automated software testing. This update to RemoteLaunch X brings support for data-driven testing, more configuration features and support for the latest versions of Java.

New Features

The latest update to RemoteLaunchX gives it feature parity with the desktop version of RemoteLaunch, specifically it includes support for data-driven testing with test configurations, more flexible regular expression matching, and support for configurable default statuses.

Data-Driven Testing

The new data-driven testing functionality allows you to create test configurations in SpiraTest that model all of the different platforms and environments you need to test against:

Test configurations can also be used to test against different sets of logins, user profiles and other test data in addition. With RemoteLaunchX, you can schedule tests to run against different automation hosts, and each of the hosts will execute the set of test cases multiple times, one iteration for each unique combination of parameter values in the test configuration set. This allows you to perform large-scale automated regression testing on different platforms and have a central platform for orchestration and reporting.
