Release plan
The following features have been scheduled for the next release:
- Support for Attachements
- Support for REST-style bindings
- Improved WSDL inspection
- WS-I Basic-Profile Validation
- Related assertion-updates and refactorings
Also, the following minor improvements are being considered:
- simple XQuery/XPath "testbench" for testing expressions
- add possibility to label endpoints for readability
- add possibility to transfer values from source request (instead of response)
- add possibility to move teststeps to another testcase
- workspace management
- reload-project / file-system monitoring
- option to reload schemas on run testcase
- association of request credentials with an endpoint (so all requests to that endpoint use
these same credentials)
Above improvements will be rolled out in minor releases during the coming months. Let me know if you have
any wishes/suggestions that should be included!
