LambdaTest now supports Android 16 public beta and is now available for testing on Google Pixel 7 Pro on real device cloud.
Now, test your Android apps on the latest Android 16 and enhance your mobile experience before the official rollout.
These updates ensure broader coverage for cross-browser testing and improve test stability across the latest browser versions
Check out the latest feature set of KaneAI that introduces several enhancements aimed at improving testing workflows, boosting efficiency, and refining automation. 👇
📌 Create and Execute Test Plans With KaneAI-Generated Test Cases
We have rolled out a new feature that lets you create test plans with KaneAI-generated test cases and run them directly on HyperExecute. This means you can test across multiple browsers and operating systems at the same time, saving you time and effort. There’s no need for manual setup—just create your tests, and you can execute them right away in one smooth workflow.
📌 Natural Language Support for JSON Variable Validation
With this update, you can now validate JSON objects in KaneAI using natural language. This makes it easier to check complex JSON structures through API calls or JavaScript snippets within your KaneAI test cases. It simplifies things by reducing the need for manual assertions when dealing with dynamic JSON responses and makes JSON validation more accessible, even for those who aren't as technically inclined.
📌 Run Test Plans on Multiple Configurations
This feature allows you to run KaneAI-generated tests across multiple configurations all at once. You can execute a batch of tests in parallel, which helps save time and increases your efficiency.
📌 CI/CD Pipeline Integration for Test Plan Execution
Now, you can trigger test plan execution directly within your CI/CD pipeline. This update makes it easier to integrate testing into your development process, offering continuous testing and quicker feedback loops. It’s all automated, so developers and DevOps teams can focus on building without worrying about manually triggering tests.
📌 Run Native Automated Tests Using Appium With Java
You can now generate Appium Java test scripts for native app automation. This makes it much easier to automate tests for mobile apps using Appium and integrates well with your existing setup. If you're working on mobile automation, this feature helps you get started quickly by generating the code you need.
📌 Modules for Web and App Tests
You can use KaneAI modules that let you group test steps into reusable modules, making it easier to create and maintain tests. You can use these modules for both web and app tests, saving time and reducing redundancy. It’s a simple way to make your test creation more efficient and organized.
📌 Variables for App Tests on Real Devices
You can now create and use variables in KaneAI for native app tests on real devices. This helps you automate your app tests more efficiently by handling dynamic variables for real-world testing. It’s a simple way to make sure your tests are accurate when running them on actual devices without any added complexity.
📌 Track Projects With Milestones
With Milestones feature in KaneAI lets users track critical project goals and feature releases by associating them with Test Runs. This way, you can have a clear and organized method to monitor progress toward project completion.
📌 Test Plans and Builds are now Test Runs
Test Runs now combine Test Plans and Builds into a single entity to simplify execution across multiple configurations.
📌 API Feature Enhancements
We've made some useful improvements to the API module, including support for PATCH requests, which gives you more flexibility in your API testing. We’ve also added the ability to use variables in API bodies, making dynamic testing easier and opening up more possibilities for complex scenarios. These changes improve the way you can test APIs, giving you more control over your testing process.

We are excited to announce the addition of four new regions for performance testing in HyperExecute. These regions enable better coverage, reduced latency, and enhanced testing capabilities for global users.
The new regions are:
📕 Visit our Performance Testing Documentation for step-by-step instructions on configuring your tests and making the most of HyperExecute's enhanced regional coverage.
Now, you can download the JUnit XML report for your test runs on the XCUI framework.
To generate reports for your XCUI tests, add the reports: true flag in your HyperExecute YAML file and pass the --download-report flag with the CLI command.
📕 Refer to our detailed documentation to Generate XCUI Reports
We have introduced the Teams feature for private real device cloud to streamline resource management within organizations.
With this feature, organizations can get the following benefits:
To get started, check out this guide on private device allocation to teams.
HyperExecute now supports the Appium and the Maestro Android Emulator, providing enhanced flexibility for mobile application testing on Android emulators.
📕 Refer to our detailed documentation for Appium and Maestro on configuring and running tests with Android emulators.
HyperExecute expands its support for the latest versions of dev and beta browsers for the Windows platform. With this expanded compatibility, you can streamline your testing process and confidently deliver exceptional user experiences!
In App Automation, you can now get app profiling metrics from your test sessions using an API. You can add this API to your CI/CD pipelines or automation frameworks. This allows you to get real-time performance data—like CPU usage, memory, disk usage, and network activity.
To get the profiling details, send a request to the LambdaTest API. Use your LambdaTest Username, Access Key, and the session ID. The response will include the metrics in JSON format. This makes it easy to link with other tools or reporting systems for more analysis.
Bonus: We have also added support for network log features for Espresso (Sharding/ Non Sharding) and Flutter Android tests. To get started, refer to this guide on Supported Espresso Capabilities.
The consolidated JUnit XML report includes detailed information on all executed tests, i.e., which tests passed, failed, or were skipped, along with any error messages and stack traces for failed tests. It is widely supported across CI/CD tools, making it easy to integrate with existing workflows and other tools or systems.
📕 Refer to our documentation for detailed instructions on setting up your project and using the new JUnit XML report
Now, you can download artifacts for your test runs on both Espresso and XCUI frameworks and detailed reports for your Espresso test executions.
To generate artifacts and reports for your Espresso tests, add the artifacts: true and reports: true flag in your YAML file and pass the --download-artifacts and --download-report flag with the CLI command
📕 Refer to our detailed documentation to generate Espresso Artifacts and Reports
To generate artifacts for your XCUI tests, add the artifacts: true flag in your YAML file and pass the --download-artifacts flag with the CLI command
📕 Refer to our detailed documentation to generate XCUI Artifacts
Firefox Browser Update to Version 132.0
HyperExecute now supports Firefox version 132.0. This latest Firefox release includes performance and security improvements to ensure a smoother and safer testing experience.
Note : Firefox 132.0 is currently not compatible with Cypress. Users running Cypress tests should continue to use a compatible Firefox version until an update is released.
Selenium JAR Update to Version 4.26.0
HyperExecute has upgraded to Selenium JAR version 4.26.0. This update includes stability enhancements and bug fixes for better compatibility and reliability across various browsers
We've introduced new features in KaneAI to make your AI testing experience even smoother.
