Version 4.4.0
Test Center 4.4.0 is a minor release that introduces a new public API for querying results and brings significant improvements to test plans. The new Results API lets you build your own result views and use Test Center with the Protocol (MCP)}, while test plans gain matrix executions and suite expansion. See the following sections for a complete list of all changes.
Result API & MCP Support
The new Results API lets you query test results programmatically, so you can build your own result views. It also enables integration with the Model Context Protocol (MCP), letting you explore results through MCP-compatible tooling.
Test Plan Improvements
Test plan templates now support matrix executions. Instead of specifying each configuration explicitly, you define a range and Test Center expands the configurations for you. This builds on the test plans introduced in version 4.0.0 and makes large test matrices far easier to create and maintain.
Alongside matrix expansion, test plans can now expand a suite into its individual test cases, either from the repository or from previously known child tests (See suite expansion for more details).
Manual Testing - Automatic User Assignments
For manual testing, matrix executions can be combined with automatic user assignments. Test Center distributes the expanded test runs across your testers based on optimal load distribution, removing the need to assign each configuration by hand.
General
- When re-running tests you can now specify an import strategy that helps with automatically removing or annotating previous results.
- Improved performance for deleting reports and scheduled maintenance tasks.
- Improved performance when browsing comments.
testcentercmdis no longer bound to Squish or Test Center installation directories, copy it where you need it.- 3rd party dependencies have been updated
- When copying tests on the test management page, the descriptions are now retained.
Integrations
- Resolved an issue with the text filter on the Traceability View. The mapping buttons for matched traceability items are no longer hidden.
