This release introduces the Playwright Node SDK and enhanced Insights dashboards. KaneAI now supports live step editing, and Test Manager offers better tracking. HyperExecute adds real iOS device testing and Detox support. Plus, TestMu AI now integrates with Zoho Project and ServiceNow for faster, seamless bug tracking and incident management.
We have released the Playwright Node SDK that allows you to run existing Playwright tests on the TestMu AI cloud grid without requiring any code changes. The TestMu AI Playwright SDK provides you with a configuration-driven approach, allowing test execution to be managed entirely through a lambdatest.yml file.

We’ve added new capabilities to TestMu AI Insights to give you deeper visibility into your testing activities. These enhancements help you track performance trends, uncover bottlenecks, and take faster, more informed actions to improve release quality.
Managing large volumes of test data across multiple types can be costly and difficult to handle. Without clear retention rules, organizations risk compliance issues and inefficient storage use.
The new dynamic data retention configuration feature in TestMu AI Insights addresses this by giving organizations precise control over how long different types of data are stored.
Retention periods can now be set in days, months, or years, with automated purging once data reaches its defined limit. Built-in notification alerts ensure that you are aware of upcoming deletions, helping you act before data is removed.
C-Suite executives and senior leadership often need a clear, concise view of testing operations across multiple projects. Gathering insights from various dashboards and reports can be time-consuming and make it difficult to monitor progress in real time.

The new Projects dashboard in Insights provides a centralized analytics solution, giving leaders immediate visibility into testing activities across all projects. The dashboard features 8 advanced visualization widgets, including:
Accessing and analyzing detailed sub-organization data can be cumbersome when restricted to on-screen dashboards. Exporting data for offline use is often needed for deeper analysis or reporting purposes.

With the sub-organization insights, you can now download sub-organization reports in CSV format directly from the analytics dashboard. This enhancement provides greater data accessibility and enables offline analysis, supporting better organizational insights and streamlined data management.
Keeping teams updated on key analytics often requires multiple communication channels. Until now, notifications were limited to Slack and email.
This release adds MS Teams support in Insights. You can configure notifications with the same frequency and date range options as before, enabling real-time alerts and dashboard updates directly within MS Teams.
Tracking auto-healed tests and understanding why they passed or failed can be challenging without detailed visibility. Identifying which commands or locators were adjusted often requires manual inspection.
This update introduces new widgets on the Auto-Heal dashboard to make analysis easier:
KaneAI just got more powerful with a new set of features designed to make your workflows smarter and faster.
You can now update module steps directly during a test run in edit mode, without stopping execution.
Key capabilities include:

New configuration options in KaneAI make both UI and API testing more flexible and environment-aware:
With custom headers in KaneAI, you can customize your API or web tests at the start of execution:

Here are some latest features and enhancements we rolled out in TestMu AI Test Manager:
Managing test case executions can be confusing when all instances are grouped together, making it hard to track tests that haven’t started.
The Runs section now displays all associated test instances, including a distinct Planned section for “Not Started” instances. Enhanced filters let you quickly locate the tests that need attention.

For more details, check out this documentation on manual test case creation.
Exporting test cases often includes unnecessary information, making reports harder to use.
Now, in Test Manager, you can choose specific fields to include when exporting test cases to CSV files, allowing exports to be tailored to the exact information needed.

Learn how to customize test case exports for efficient reporting and analysis.
We have rolled out the AI Test Manager Extension on the Azure DevOps marketplace that provides:
We’ve rolled out several enhancements in HyperExecute to make your test automation faster, cleaner, and more adaptable. From capability overrides to real device support, these updates remove bottlenecks and keep your workflow smooth.
No more digging into test scripts for environment tweaks. With the new ltOptions flag in your hyperexecute.yaml, you can set or modify Selenium capabilities like browser type, version, video recording, tunnel, and logs, right from your config file.
Benefits:
Your Playwright tests can now run directly on real iOS devices via HyperExecute. This means you get the accuracy of native device testing combined with the speed and parallelism of our cloud platform.
Use the runson: ios and framework flags in your YAML file.
runson: ios
framework:
name: appium
args:
playwrightRD: true
mobileDC: true
Reports don’t always live in static folders. With wildcard ** pattern support in the partialReports parameter, HyperExecute can now automatically locate reports inside nested or dynamically generated directories.
The result:
Running end-to-end tests for React Native apps just got easier. HyperExecute now supports Detox on real Android devices and iOS simulators in the cloud, no local device farm needed.
Benefits:
To get started, check this documentation on Detox testing with HyperExecute.
We’ve expanded the capabilities of the TestMu AI UI Inspector with support for iOSPredicateString and iOSClassChain selectors.
Why this matters:
These selector types give you more precise control when locating UI elements, making your test authoring faster and more reliable, especially for complex or deeply nested iOS app screens.
We’re expanding TestMu AI Integrations to help you integrate testing directly with your project management and IT service workflows. These new integrations remove the friction between finding an issue and getting it into the right hands for resolution.
This release expands TestMu AI’s capabilities across testing, insights, and integrations. The Playwright SDK and KaneAI updates simplify test execution and live step editing. Test Manager and HyperExecute provide improved tracking, real iOS device support, and Detox testing. Insights dashboards offer dynamic data retention and centralized project views. New Zoho Project and ServiceNow integrations enable seamless bug tracking and incident management.
