Tricentis TOSCA features of version 16.0
- Seamless Connectivity For Android & Ios With The Newly Launched Tricentis Mobile Agent
A new centralized service called Tricentis Mobile Agent (TMA) enables you to manage your connection to any mobile device, whether local, remote, or cloud-based. This will make the creation and execution of mobile tests across all Tricentis products more seamless. TMA makes iOS and Android device setup and networking easier, allowing a more direct mobile testing experience. To get your mobile testing career off to a quick start, you can now effortlessly configure linked devices, enable iOS automation by putting up iOS artifacts, and check agent settings. Users can now keep current with the most recent iOS and Android platforms without upgrading TOSCA thanks to this new service offering, which also makes onboarding quicker and simpler.
- Self-help Cloud Licensing Report
TOSCA administrators can now obtain reports without contacting Tricentis support and view their TOSCA license cloud utilization over time. Administrators who manage many TOSCA licenses can easily monitor spikes in the number of active TOSCA users while getting alerts for users who don’t have any TOSCA Commander licenses.
- Enhanced Test Automation For Oracle
Automated testing for Oracle applications like EBS to ensure reliable business operations. End-to-end testing is essential because Oracle applications are installed in highly customized and integrated environments with other systems undergoing frequent changes. Oracle programs, like any other ERP system, include dynamic controls that require powerful automation. Additional capabilities to stabilize Oracle automation are included in the Tosca 16.0 release. Improve the identification of complicated commands that are a component of Oracle applications by using Tosca’s ID Mapper and support for ARIA.
- ARIA Framework Technical Support
Applications are created using the Accessible Rich Internet Applications (ARIA) framework from TOSCA by Tricentis. The technical specification ARIA can be added to HTML components to increase the accessibility of web content and apps for persons with disabilities. The European Accessibility Act, which will take effect in 2025, will mandate the use of ARIA. Therefore, an increasing number of online applications will be created using it.
- More Inclusive User Experience Using Dark Theme
TOSCA’s new dark and stark contrast themes increase readability and accessibility for various user groups. Four pieces are available for users to select: light, dark, high-contrast light, and high-contrast dark. The TOSCA screen’s top right corner has an easy-to-use slider to change between various themes.
- TOSCA’s ID Mapper
Tosca provides thorough methods to recognize various control kinds, but occasionally applications are created in a way that makes automating controls more difficult. We reduce test customization and boost stability with Tosca’s new ID Mapper. Select your test application, give your power a unique ID by modifying its settings, and save the default IDs in a library. As a result, you can create reliable automation by accessing a library of prebuilt IDs.
- Vertical Capabilities- Life Science, Pharmaceutical, and Utilities
With Tosca Tricentis 16.0, users can now access a fully automated and more comprehensive solution for testing certified applications for highly regulated companies in the life science or utility sectors. Users can now easily handle pre-execution test case evaluation and approval of the Tosca user interface or REST API. Tosca tests frequently need to be approved and evaluated before execution to ensure they comply with specific criteria. Without these safeguards, employing Tosca for Computer System Validation (CSV) testing becomes a laborious manual procedure.
