Web Transactions Scout is now GA
Use the Web Transactions Scout to simulate real user workflows on a SaaS app (or any website). While performing a test, the Scout makes sure the website is working as expected and detects errors such as slow loading times. Learn more about the benefits of the Web Transactions Scout.
Configuring the Scout is now easier with the Web Transactions Browser Extension. Instead of copying element locators and configuring each step manually, you can use the browser extension to record your steps on a website interactively. The steps are automatically added to the Scout configuration page. Learn how to use the browser extension.
During the beta period, we've made other improvements:
Support for JS path - You can now use JS path element locators. This locator type should be used when the element is located under the shadow root.
Test result screenshot navigation - The UI for viewing and navigating screenshots for test results is improved. You can click on the arrows to navigate between steps.
Plus many other performance and reliability improvements.
