Release 24.3
Velocity Core Reservation Snapshot and Restore
  • Provides the ability to take a snapshot of resources in an active reservation and recall those snapshots at later time to re-create the past reservation in exact state - same configuration, interfaces / ports, resource types
  • TAC labs are challenged to meet strict SLAs for response times to customer problems. TAC engineers spin up test beds in Velocity Core to reproduce customer issues and find it challenging to manage multiple open cases at any one time. This new zero-touch workflow enables TAC engineers to save their work at the end of their shift or when the issue is put on hold waiting for information. The TAC engineer can quickly recall the reservation when work resumes
  • The result is extreme optimization of TAC lab resources through equipment repurposing and sharing with TAC engineers working in other time zone
  • License required
Save a Copy of Reserved Topology
  • Provides the capability to save a copy of active topology as a new physical topology
  • Quick creation of reference topologies which users find most valuable
  • Create many variations of test beds during the same reservation to enable a variety of testing scenarios in the same reservation
Visibility of Reservation Owner for Exclusively Reserved Resources
  • For exclusively reserved resources, ability to see who is using the resource while editing a topology or an active reservation
  • Users can make better decisions for which physical equipment is available for use based on what is being used
  • Quickly identify a user who has locked high-demand resources, enabling better sharing and utilization
Ability to Resize Connection Window
  • Ability to change the width of the left-side panel in the connection windo
  • Improved user experience for long resource and port names
  • Faster connection editing and ease of use
Velocity iTest Landslide REST: CRUD Support for DMF File
  • Ability to modify the contents of DMFs before starting the test
  • Enables automated test development with user-specified traffic flows
  • Quick creation of new data message flows to better match customers testing objectives
Multi-Threading in Python Testcases
  • Added commands for advanced thread synchronization support (signalWait, signalWaitAll, signal, signalAll, signalActivate and signalClear) for Python test cases.
  • Fine control of the flow and timing of procedures used in an automated test flow such as simultaneous start/stop of logging in multiple sessions, synchronized capture of packet loss/time/log messages, etc. during failure/recovery
Platform and Integration Upgrades
  • MacOS Sonoma
  • Appium 2.5.1
  • Python 3.12.2
