Now Live With SmartUI CLI and Test Case Insights Module

Hola Testers!

In our last update on SmartUI and Analytics platforms, we introduced SmartUI’s PDF Testing and Test Analytics Templates to enhance testing and functional test case performance.

We’ve constantly collected feedback to improve and expand on SmartUI and Test Analytics platforms. This time, we’re introducing SmartUI CLI for Visual Regression Testing and the Test Case Insights Module for HyperExecute.

Identify Bugs with SmartUI CLI

With SmartUI CLI, you can now effortlessly conduct visual regression testing from your command line, ensuring visual consistency in your applications.

• Seamless Visual Testing Integration: Our primary objective was to develop a versatile CLI that integrates with various static web pages, making it easier for developers to incorporate SmartUI into their testing pipelines. This ensures compatibility and flexibility for your testing needs.
• DOM Injection: The CLI captures the DOM of the web pages and enables rendering on multiple browsers and viewports of choice without running multiple executions.
• Efficient Test Analysis: We aimed to streamline the process of capturing and uploading screenshots for identifying visual differences between baseline and non-baseline builds in SmartUI on the cloud. The SmartUI CLI empowers you to analyze your tests and pinpoint visual regressions efficiently.
• Easy learning curve with the NPM package: You just need to install the NPM CLI package and configure the URLs to get started. You can easily perform visual testing, minimizing the need for extensive support and enabling your team to focus on higher-value activities.

Let’s have a look at the steps required to run your first test with SmartUI CLI:

1. Install the dependencies, create your URL file, and configure your project token.



2. Create and Configure SmartUI Config.



3. View your test result.

Test Case Insights Module

LambdaTest Analytics introduces Test Case Insights for HyperExecute, simplifying the analysis of your test automation execution at the test case level. This feature enables you to access details about test case quantity and types via customizable widgets with advanced filter options, providing a comprehensive understanding of their testing scenarios.

You can use the module to analyze the following use cases:

• Monitor the performance of your test cases for your spec files within the frameworks.
• Advanced visibility on the trends and see the consistency of the test case status for about 90 days.
• Advanced filters enable user tracking and other metadata information to have a clear demarcation for reporting to stakeholders effectively.
• Capture real-time test insights by incorporating WebHooks into your scripts, enabling instant data updates and monitoring.
• Use NPM package integration with test case analytics to simplify data capture and analysis for seamless test result tracking and evaluation within your script.
• Analyze the test case level insights of your test automation execution on LambdaTest.
• Easily monitor test case health with a widget displaying the count of successful and failed test cases in card view, with the ability to access detailed information by clicking “View Details.”
• Identify and highlight test cases that experience repeated failures over time.
• Streamline the debugging process by enabling users to access specific test cases directly from the insights dashboard.
