Spooky data table collapse at a distance in Hexawise Automate

When you have more than 1 scenario outline, and you collapse one and work on the other, and then you add a var < to the other so that it renders the example table, it un-collapsed the one that you weren't working on. No longer does.

Restricting test cases included in a feature file in the script's Background section

Including {[Parameter]Parameter Value} text in the scripts background section limits the entire feature file to test cases that match the selection(s).

Generate Gherkin Scenarios for every test case

In addition to the Gherkin Examples data-table driven Scenario Outline sections, Hexawise Automate will now generate a Scenario outline for every test case in the exported feature file whenever any step in the Scenario references the test cases with either the parameter syntax:

<Parameter name>

or the parameter value syntax:

{[Parameter name]Parameter value}

FIXED
Specific editing the name of parameter value involved in a uni/bi-directional married pair could cause issues

This pairwise defect only occurred when editing the parameter value's name directly by clicking on it on the Constraints screen. Editing the parameter values or bulk editing all the parameters didn't trigger the issue.

FIXED
Manage plans dialog regression

Bolding of the current plan's name in the Your Test Plans dialog was missing, and the redirect out of the plan when deleting the currently active plan was also broken.

NEW
Parameter value replacement in auto-scripts expected results

For a situation in your auto-scripts like the following:


Step 2: Select Audit Schedule Type as {Audit Schedule Type}

Expected result: When Audit Schedule Type is Premium Reports Then Additional fields are not hidden and user should fill them as follows: Payment Plan Code should be {Payment Plan Code} select “{Schedule Basis}” from the Schedule Basis dropdown


Without the ability to include a parameter replacement such as {Schedule Basis} and {Payment Plan Code} in the expected result, creating the desired auto-script was not as easy and straight forward as it should be.
