*********************** * NeoLoad ChangeLog * *********************** Version 4.0.1 (April 20, 2012) ============= - FIXED: Request name validator allowed plugin requests to have the same name inside the same parent page. - FIXED: Telnet monitoring failed to collect network interfaces. - FIXED: When maximum user number allowed by license was reached, starting or stopping Virtual Users at runtime did not work properly until end of test. - FIXED: Stop Virtual User at runtime feature did not stop enough VUs for test launched in iteration mode. - FIXED: NeoLoad seemed to freeze while a test was running and a Collaboration wizard was opened. - FIXED: In Collaboration, Virtual User, Shared Container, and pages might display incorrect status in Collaboration publish wizard. - FIXED: In Collaboration, the author of a test result was not updated when applying SLA. - FIXED: In Collaboration, folder "SqlTemp" is now in out-of-control version. - FIXED: WS-Security signature header for XML based SOAP requests was not computed against evaluated variables. - FIXED: Fields based on enum types were not supported by AMF BlazeDS Protocol. Can be disabled by editing controller.properties: [AMF] context.legacyEnum=true - FIXED: Statistics of elements with the same name were always the same in summary and reports. - FIXED: On Linux, when selecting "No license mode", NeoLoad could fail to open a project at first launch. - FIXED: Creation of Apache, Oracle 9.x-10.x, or VMware monitor failed on a server already existing. - FIXED: In Record wizard, name field validator for new Virtual User could prevent from creating it although no Virtual User existed with same name. - FIXED: When opening "License Management" through "About" dialog box without opening a project, NeoLoad was randomly freezing. - FIXED: SLA Search and Replace was raising a NullPointerException when replacing a SLA Profile on Init, Actions, or End container. - FIXED: Shared projects could be inconsistent when using SQL variables (SQLTemp obstruction). - FIXED: Page screenshot was not capturing Forms applet during a recording. - FIXED: In "Results" > "Graphs", SLA Status was displayed on actions even when no SLA Threshold per Time Interval had been defined in linked SLA Profile. - FIXED: SOAP requests were not named based on SOAP method. - FIXED: Stopping MonitorAgent might hang for a few seconds. - FIXED: SOAP requests were recorded as plain HTTP requests if SOAP module was not included in the license. - FIXED: In No License mode, SOAP and Silverlight requests could not be created manually. - FIXED: In "Design" > "Virtual Users", right-clicking a tree item which was a child of a shared Container and choosing "Select in Check Virtual User dialog box" might display dialog box with inaccurate tree. - FIXED: When recording, Page Screenshot was not capturing Forms applet. - FIXED: In Collaboration, using SQL variables was raising conflicts and could impair the shared project consistency. - FIXED: PDF report generation was failing when the test result was containing several SLA Profiles. - FIXED: Throughput values in SLA Per Profile section in report may be inaccurate. - IMPROVED: VMWare monitor module gives more information when connection test fails. - IMPROVED: In Collaboration, users are warned of the project being overwritten when using "Replace by Tag" command. Version 4.0.0 (April 04, 2012) ============= New optional modules: --------------------- - Collaboration Module * Share Virtual User profiles, share test results and tag project versions. - JMX Monitoring Module * Monitor all JMX servers and devices (no pre-defined counters or thresholds). New features: ------------- - Service Level Agreements * Define the expected level of performance for any item of the scenario. For example, define the average response time or maximum error rate expected for each business transaction. - Mobile Support * Record easily the mobile version of your websites directly from your desktop browser thanks to the "Identify as" feature. * Emulate mobile browsers during the test. * Generate realistic traffic on the server with the bandwidth emulation. The new advanced bandwidth picker provides accurate values for each technology (ex: "3G+ with medium quality of signal"). - Externalized Monitoring Engines * NeoLoad provides the ability to deploy several monitoring engines in sub-networks. - Video Support * NeoLoad automatically detects video requests in a project and provides specific statistics related to the quality of the video playback. - New Virtual User Profile * All Virtual User profiles contain the following: Init / Actions / End immutable Containers. All the elements inserted in the Actions Container are repeated until the Virtual User stops. - Add/Remove Virtual Users at Runtime - Proxy per Zone * When using Load Generators located in different networks, NeoLoad v4.0 allows the use of different proxy settings for each Load Generator zone. - Predefined Dataset for Test Data * NeoLoad v4.0 provides default datasets for common entries (first name, last name, zip code…). - Parameter Comparison in Check VU Dialog Box * New panel dedicated to the request parameters comparison in the Check Virtual User dialog box. - Enable/Disable Elements - SNMP Monitoring module now supports SNMPv2 and SNMPv3. - dynaTrace module now supports all dynaTrace server versions. - Variable Extractor Automatic Correlation * When defining a variable extractor, NeoLoad proposes to replace each occurrence of the hard-coded value for all subsequent requests in the Virtual User profile.
