Manager 11.2.1 Release Notes

December 12, 2022

Tricentis Tosca integration

We've added client ID-secret authentication to ensure compatibility with Tosca 15.2, so qTest users can now authenticate HTTPS with client Id-secret when required. Effective with Tosca 15.2, if you are using an HTTPS connection or a server repository workspace, you must set up client ID-secret authentication.

We implemented this change as Tosca 15.2 introduced authentication for the Tosca server and now requires applications such as DEX agents to authenticate at Tricentis User Administration (TUA). The addition of client ID-secret authentication allows system administrators to control which users and applications have permission to connect to the DEX server, ensuring the DEX environment is secure.

Because of this change in authentication, not all versions of qTest will be compatible with Tosca 15.2. Take a look at the version matrix below to see what versions of Tosca your environment is compatible with.

qTest Manager	qTest Launch	Tosca
10.4.x* *Not compatible with qTest testevents, introduced in Tosca 15.0.	1.6.12	Up to 15.1
11.0.x/11.1.x	1.6.12	Up to 15.1
11.2.0	1.6.12	Up to 15.1
11.2.1/SaaS HTTPS connections only work with 15.2+.	1.6.13	Up to 15.2+ * *For users that have a Tosca server with an HTTPS binding, the Tosca 15.2 integration only works with patch 2 or later.

User list custom column field

We added the ability to add a user list to test steps as a custom column. This is in addition to our existing combo box and rich text editor custom fields.

You can use this feature to track users next to test steps. For example, if multiple users find a bug, you can now attach all relevant users to the step containing the bug. This helps you track all users that find a reproducible error.

Once added, the user list column universally displays on all Test Steps sections for all test cases you create, either past, present, or future.

Jira integration

We made changes to qTest to make our qTest Jira plugin compatible with Jira version 9.0.0+.

API updates

We've updated the Create Custom Site Field API call, so you can now add a custom site field with a userlist datatype to a test step artifact from the API. You can use this feature to track users next to test steps.

Security enhancements

We performed some background changes to improve the overall security of qTest Manager.
