NEW RELEASE - DevOps Test 2025.06 – Leverage DevOps Test Hub to Author, Maintain and Execute Test UI Tests

New Release: DevOps Test 2025.06 – Leverage DevOps Test Hub to Author, Maintain and Execute Test UI Tests

Already part of the DevOps Automation platform that was released in early 2025, IBM is pleased to announce the latest version of our automated software testing portfolio, DevOps Test 11.0.5 (2025.06). This powerful solution represents a significant advancement in testing methodology.  DevOps Test transforms traditional testing approaches by consolidating multiple quality assurance solutions into a single, unified platform—ultimately elevating application quality while streamlining the testing process

Here is a reminder of our DevOps Test rebranded names:

So, let's walk through the standout features and see what's new in version 11.0.5!

  • DevOps Test Hub: UI-Test authoring

This new capability will really change the way tests are performed by organizations, by bringing users to a unified single platform. In this release, DevOps Test Hub continues to be that cloud native collaborative platform, but testers can now use it to create UI tests directly in DevOps Test Hub. We can still create tests using any of existing components DevOps Test UI, DevOps Test Performance or DevOps Test Integrations and APIs, and sharing test assets with DevOps Test Hub through Git, and we can now create UI tests directly in DevOps Test Hub. This is a huge step toward a more complete solution, and data fabrication, API testing and Performance testing will be made available in future upcoming releases. 

With the 2025.06 (version 11.0.5 of DevOps Test Hub), the capability includes: 

o   Recording a test by connecting to the application under test and recording user actions. Once the scenario is complete, the test is uploaded to the platform, ready for use.

o   Editing a test, like adding verification points using interactive gestures between screenshots and the test, where the controls involved in the scenario are easily and clearly identified, or changing values and properties as needed. New actions can be dragged and dropped into the test from the catalogue, allowing a smooth and easy test creation.

o   Run a test from the editor to interactively and immediately view the results

Users can run the test from the editor to maximize efficiency and productivity during the authoring phase, and results are displayed and viewable from the editor:

While this new way of running tests will continue to be enhanced in upcoming releases for authoring, debugging, and repairing or maintaining tests, once tests are working as expected, they remain available for execution just as any other test contributed by any other DevOps Test component.

o   Tests can be assembled together in test suites and placed for execution either in parallel or sequentially. They can also be run from the editor as well as from the execution page, and the last results are displayed and accessible from the editor.

  • DevOps Test Hub: Data fabrication: Database Schema

Effective testing fundamentally depends on data -- quality of data and availability of data is critical. Using realistic and diverse data is a key challenge to solve when covering edge cases or validation of the system behavior under various realistic or degraded conditions. With that in mind, using a real production database for testing is not an option because of privacy and compliance issues, data integrity risks, and limited test coverage, and this is why the new DevOps Test release offers the option to import a database schema and generate data from it, with referential integrity intact, and based on all or part of that schema.

 

Users can the generate the data from the imported schema, and they can also modify for specific testing needs, for example, or import only a part of the original database schema and choose to generate data into a new database.

  • DevOps Test Hub: A Test Genie (Generative AI) to generate tests from designs (Tech Preview)

Delivered in this release as a Tech Preview, the Test Genie allows users to import any sort of image of application screenshots, like rough mock-ups or elaborated high -precision designs, and use them to generate a test. The screenshots are first analyzed, and the resulting internal model is sent out to an external language model along with a prompt prepared by the Test Genie. Users can change the prompt for more accuracy (Ollama and OpenAI are currently supported).

Once the request is sent to the external language model, the Test Genie will generate the test, and the test is credentials and permissions aware.


While not for production usage yet, the Test Genie
empowers users to seamlessly implement shift left practices, integrating testing from the earliest stages of development. With our intuitive interface and comprehensive automation capabilities, users will effortlessly catch defects at their source—reducing remediation costs and accelerating delivery pipelines.
