test.guide 2026 Q2

Multi-language test reporting

More language flexibility than ever: test.guide now supports additional character sets including Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Arabic.

Existing workflows remain completely unaffected – the extension only takes effect when explicitly enabled. This can be done in two ways:
  • Via the new ATX option in ecu.test: extendedCharacterSupport.
  • By using the new upload plugin JSON JSON Report.
    This plugin includes extended language support while offering the same functionality as the well-known Json2ATX plugin.

Lightweight execution mode for flow tasks

Workflow automation in test.guide just got a whole lot leaner. Instead of packaging the complete execution environment with every flow bundle, all you need now is the workflow definition itself. test.guide takes care of the rest at runtime – flow.kit, interpreter, and Python dependencies – always in the latest available version.

The benefits are immediate:
  • Faster execution, thanks to a significantly smaller payload.
  • Platform-independent workflows that run on both Windows and Linux runners from a single source.
  • An easier on-ramp for new users because the setup process has become simpler.

Configuration


Existing flow bundles are unaffected – the new mode only kicks in when you explicitly enable it:
  • In the workflow trigger source, uncheck the following box:
    Self-contained flow bundle
  • Make sure the source includes the flow_definition.py file.

Share calendar events via email

No more manual follow-ups: When appointments in test resource calendars are created, modified, or deleted, all participants are automatically notified by email. The email includes all relevant appointment details and is recognized as a calendar invite by common email applications – so events land directly in participants' calendars.

Notes
  • This feature requires email delivery to be configured in test.guide (Systemkonfiguration → E-Mail).
  • Currently, email notifications are supported for single appointments. Support for recurring events is coming in a future release.
