Android

• Added new filters and added ability to include or exclude tests by filters. Read more.
  Breaking changes: the filters structure in the clients has changed a little bit.

21.5.0

What's Changed

Crossplatform

• We reworked how our users deal with enterprise support. Now we distribute a single application that accepts license keys. You're encouraged to contact your manager to migrate on new licensing. Learn more.

iOS

Now you may setup simulator gracefully before running tests via

• classified settings (that our old users may familiar with), learn more
• running plain scripts on worker host, take a look on our playbook

Android

• Added internal improvements, such as debug/info/critical logs rework, timeouts updates, etc
• Added Kaspresso adb-server. Now you can enable this server inside worker via worker environment variable (read about env name here)
• Added worker self-check scripts for better debugging. Read more
• Added info in documentation about ability to customize worker emulators. You can replace default emulators by your own. Read more
• Added docker image with preconfigured Artifactory instance. Now you can use this image to avoid first Artifactory setup because this instance contains ready for use user. Read more

21.4.0

What's Changed

iOS

• Added Xcode 16 support

21.3.0

What's Changed

• Fixed bug that occurred when test execution was interrupted by a timeout, resulting in the screen recording not being downloaded
• Fixed bug with "device offline" message that sometimes happened while device booting
• The process of archiving tests artifacts has been optimized
• Improved documentation
• Added Android SDK 33 to worker and removed 24

21.1.0

What's Changed

iOS

• Xcode Test Plans are now supported in emceeplan. Learn more
• we parse more errors from XCResult and enrich reports with them

Android

• added new feature with ability to download artifacts from device custom directory on each run
• added clients network calls retry on bad responses
• made worker more stable and robust - now most unexpected errors converts to tests errors and not to workers crashes. It will give faster feedback loop for the users
• updated internal dependencies, such as Kotlin, Coroutines, etc.

21.0.0

What's Changed

This release we focused on rethinking how users run tests on-premise on our main platforms. For some time, it's been implemented differently on iOS and Android. Most iOS users tended to use simplified approach conveying tests arguments in command line rather than using a file-based approach with distinct queue configuration and test-arg-file. It led to messy scripts in CI and extra complexity for new users. On the other hand, Android users employed a declarative approach using emceeplan file. We reworked emceeplan config to match needs of all our focus platforms, made it platform agnostic(almost) with simplified configuration ready to work from scratch.

Meet new major Emcee release:

• emceeplan file format reworked to support both iOS and Android platforms similar way, a lot of test parameters are shared between platforms
• documentation and guides are reworked to match these changes, find more
• install Emcee using Homebrew, learn how

as well as changes in core Emcee technology:

Crossplatform

• queue now uses Vapor web server that brings stability and performance
• queue sends time consumption analytics for requests on all endpoint

iOS

• to prevent system overwhelming every test exception reason is now limited to 10kb

Android

• added new worker metrics. See Android worker metrics doc for more info
• added new failed tests retry strategy retryOnWorker - now it is possible to retry failed test on the same worker
• added ability to configure tests split strategy in emceeplan. Default strategy is timeWeighted
• Android emulator updated to version 33.1.24
• there is Mac OS demo mode. Now it is possible to run whole Emcee system for Android tests on the Mac (for demonstration only)
• added JUnit report generation
• updated Gradle version to 8.5 and Kotlin version to 1.9.20 in clients
