Updates to issue tracker integrations, API upgrades, and more

Building on the release of our new look website earlier this year, we announce a fresh series of improvements designed to further enhance your software testing experience. All updates listed below are now available to use.

Issue tracker integration updates

We’ve made improvements to several of our issue tracker integrations, including these notable updates:

Jira

  • Our latest integration uses the new API released by Atlassian.

  • Building on our previous functionality, you can now select a Jira label directly from TestLodge, which will be assigned to any raised issues.

Wrike

  • With a growing number of users making use of Wrike’s EU data center, we are pleased to announce an update to our integration to support this.

Website improvements

In addition to the release of our brand new website, logo and branding, our help center/support portal at help.testlodge.com has been significantly improved. Along with the new design, you will find helpful improvements to web accessibility on this site.

We’ve also made improvements to some of the emails you might receive from us. They are now better to look at, with a clearer layout which makes them quicker to scan, so you can get the information you need on board more efficiently.

API upgrades

You’ll find we have made several improvements to our REST API over the past few months. For anyone currently using our API, please regularly review our changelog to stay up to date. Here is a summary of the latest updates:

Test run cases

Now featuring the step_id attribute, which allows you to easily identify the test’s origin.

Test runs

There have been numerous improvements to our creation endpoint, which include:

  • The test run will now be structured to include the original test suite names, aligning it with how the web app operates.

  • An attribute has been added to the response that allows you to see if the test run is currently being saved or altered.

  • The performance of the creation endpoint has been improved, so you will now receive a response while the test run is being created in the background.
