What's new in TestArchitect for Linux

The following new features and improvements are introduced in TestArchitect version 8.4 Update 2 running under Linux..

Remember:

Before upgrading to the latest version of TestArchitect, it is strongly recommended that you back up all repositories.
A TestArchitect client and any repository server to which it connects must be the same version.

TestArchitect Client

New features

Ability to configure the number of retries for a failed connection which the TestArchitect Controller establishes to a repository server. This helps users deal with an unstable network efficiently.
Users are prevented from changing the values of user-defined fields used in test results. If you adjust the value of a user-defined field on the Information tab of a test module, it will not take effect on the test result of this module. The test result will still adopt the default value.

Ability to configure the connection backlog size for a repository server – allows users to specify the maximum size of the queue used for holding pending connections to a repository server.

The repository memory is leaked after an enormous number of nodes connect to and interact with the repository server. A typical case is that 3 JPPF servers submit 13000 jobs to 72 nodes, and test results are sent to a repository server; as a result, memory leak occurs.
