Release 1.26.0 of the Interoperability Test Bed software is now available.

The main focus of this release is the Test Bed's test engine and the capabilities of the GITB Test Description Language (TDL). New built-in validators are available for JSON, RDF, and YAML data, as well as utilities to facilitate working with collections and RDF models. User interactions are extended, allowing them to be set with required inputs, skipped when not applicable, but also effectively managed when sessions are not interactively launched. In addition, numerous improvements are made to enhance reporting, make tests more configurable, and simplify test development.

Besides the new test engine features, the Test Bed's user interface is extended to include a system health dashboard, configurable system-wide resources, the possibility to move test suites without test history loss, and support for communities with shared test history for all members. Furthermore, the REST API was extended to allow fine tuning of returned results from test suite deployments, as well as automated status monitoring to greatly simplify its use in integrations and automation processes.

The new release is online in the Interoperability Test Bed service hosted by DIGIT but is also available for you to setup as a standalone instance.
