What’s New Over the Last Two Years?
TalkBack Accessibility Testing
Supported on More Models

Accessibility testing is becoming an essential
aspect of software development, ensuring thatapplications are inclusive and usable by everyone. OpenTextTM UFT Digital Lab now offers
TalkBack testing support on a range of models,
OS versions and languages, both off-cloud andhosted private devices. TalkBack is Google’s
screen reader technology for Android, whichassists visually impaired users in navigating andinteracting with applications.
With this new capability, testers can easily
evaluate their Android applications for accessibility compliance. By simulating the experience of users relying on TalkBack, developers
can identify and rectify accessibility issues,ensuring that their apps are accessible to awider audience.

Testing on Foldable Devices

The rise of foldable devices represents a significant shift in the mobile landscape. UFT
Digital Lab recognizes this trend and now offers the capability to test applications on foldable devices. This addition enables developers
to assess how their apps adapt to varying
screen configurations, such as folding andunfolding screens.
By testing on foldable devices, teams can ensure that their applications not only function
correctly but also provide an optimal user experience, regardless of the device’s form factor.

Android Audio Streaming

As multimedia-rich applications continue togain prominence, the importance of audio
testing cannot be overstated. UFT Digital Lab
will now allow you to get audible feedback fromyour apps for a better and more complete testing experience.

Manual Tests for Cloud Browsers

In today’s cloud-centric world, web applications need to be thoroughly tested on various
browsers to ensure cross-browser compatibility. A new remote view from the Browsers
tab enables you to interact with a variety ofcloud browsers and perform manual and exploratory tests.
This feature streamlines the testing process,enabling teams to quickly identify and address
any issues that may arise on specific browsers, ensuring a consistent user experience forall users, regardless of their choice of browser.
