2. iOS Inspector (New)​

We’re introducing iOS Inspector, a new UI element inspection tool fully integrated with ZeuZ (zAI). It streamlines iOS UI analysis and test case creation by automatically connecting to your active environment and providing intelligent action suggestions.

If you are on the iOS Inspector page while your iOS Simulator and ZeuZ Node are running, the system will automatically detect both and initialize the required inspector services. Simply click Capture to take the latest screenshot of the simulator screen. From there, you can interact directly with the captured UI.

When you click on any point in the screenshot, zAI analyzes the selected location and generates multiple recommended action combinations that can be added directly to your test case; similar to the Android Inspector workflow, but optimized for iOS.

Key Features​

  • Automatic Environment Detection
    Detects active ZeuZ Node and iOS Simulator instances and starts inspector services automatically.
  • One-Click UI Capture
    Instantly capture the current simulator screen for inspection.
  • AI-Powered Element Analysis
    Clicking on any area of the screenshot triggers zAI analysis to identify UI elements.
  • Smart Action Suggestions
    Generates multiple action combinations based on the selected element, enabling faster and more accurate test case creation.

3. Fail Analysis Page Redesign​

Fail analysis page has been redesigned with a modern UI and significantly improved usability. Notable improvements include:

  • Multi-card selection using:
    • Ctrl + click (start card)
    • Alt + click (end card)
  • All test steps are now visible when expanding a card
  • Runtime parameters are shown on expand
  • Run history is accessible from expanded card view
  • Users can now unassign themselves from items
  • User preferences (Fail/GitHub/Jira tab + group preference) are now saved

4. Logs Slider Enhancements​

Logs slider has received multiple upgrades to cover missing core features. New features include:

  • Adjustable screenshot size
  • Direct navigation to Run ID page from the slider
  • Ability to change step status directly from the slider
  • Filter actions that do not have screenshots

5. Automatability Report Redesign​

Automatability report page has been redesigned with modern UI and new features like statistics card, automation velocity, priority breakdown, email report and export report. The report page has been redesigned to provide a comprehensive analytics dashboard that provides insights into test automation metrics, helping teams track automation progress.

1. Statistical Overview Card​

  • Displays key automation statistics (Total Test Cases, Automated Tests, Automation Rate, Automation Potential)

2. Category Distribution Chart​

  • Interactive pie chart showing distribution across 6 categories (e.g. Automated, Easily Automated)
  • Custom tooltips with detailed breakdown

Automatability Report 1

3. Automation Velocity Chart​

Automation velocity measures the rate at which test cases are converted from manual to automated status, showing trends across 6 automation categories over a fixed timeline (12 month by default). It helps teams identify acceleration or deceleration in automation efforts and assess the effectiveness of automation initiatives.

  • Category distribution data
  • Selected filters (e.g., folder, feature, milestone)
  • Report URL for reference

Automatability Report 5

7. PDF Export Functionality​

User can export the automatability report as pdf. The report will include everything from the automatability report page.

8. Filter Data​

User can easily filter the automatability report data by folder, feature and milestone.

6. New Prerequisites Management Page​

We are introducing the Prerequisites page, a dedicated workspace to manage execution dependencies within your test sets. You can access this new page from the navigation bar under Testing > Deployments > Prerequisites.

Who is it for? This feature is designed for QA Engineers who manage complex automation workflows where the success of one test depends on the state or outcome of another.

Why is it useful? As test sets grow, tracking "which test runs after which" becomes difficult. This update eliminates the guesswork by providing a centralized, visual map of your test case hierarchy. It prevents execution failures caused by missing dependencies and allows for rapid, bulk updates to your test cases.

Key Highlights​

  • Dual-Perspective Visualization:

    • Table View: A detailed, searchable list with expandable rows that reveal the full "Prerequisite Chain" (upstream) and "Dependent Test Cases" (downstream).
    • Tree View: A folder-like, indented structure that allows you to visualize your entire dependency hierarchy at a glance.

  • Intelligent Search: Instantly locate specific test sets or individual test cases by Name or ID to see exactly where they sit in the execution flow.

  • Bulk Prerequisite Editing: Select multiple test cases across either view and use the new "Edit Prerequisite" tool to reassign their parent dependency in a single action.

  • Clear Dependency Status: Quickly identify independent tests vs. those with requirements via the dedicated "Prerequisite" column.
