BREDEX is pleased to announce the release of GUIdancer 6.0 and Jubula 1.2. The new versions contain additional features to make test result reporting and analysis more comfortable, so that test results are easier to integrate into the development process.

Both GUIdancer and Jubula now show detailed information about test duration and test data in their test result reports. GUIdancer also comes with a new web dashboard so that test results can be analysed in the browser. GUIdancer users will also be able to create entries in bug tracking systems directly from test result reports within GUIdancer.

Alongside the new features for test analysis, both tools also offer new functions in the following areas:

Test data

There is a new option available for entering test data: functions. Mathematical and date functions are available out of the box, and new functions can be added via an extension mechanism. In addition, the assistance for finding and correcting missing test data has been improved.

Usability

The new versions now allow the creation of categories in the Test Suite Browser and the Central Data Sets Editor so that larger projects remain easy to navigate. A new "Save as new Test Case" option also simplifies the creation of new Test Cases from existing ones.

Test metrics

GUIdancer and Jubula both contain a new metrics framework which can be used to show project data. Various elements in the project can be counted, the percent usage of action types can be calculated and redundant hierarchies can be displayed.

The new version of GUIdancer is available from the GUIdancer shop. Jubula can be downloaded from the Eclipse Project Page. The full press release can be viewed here, and a blog entry about the new features is here.
