FIXED
Duplicate columns in Excel export

Fixed a very rare case where an exported plan could have duplicated columns. This was a pairwise defect related to the current state of the data in the database and the system configuration.

IMPROVED
Plan import help dialog

The wording and formatting was improved to be more clear.

IMPROVED
Re-ordering top and bottom most parameters

Using the up arrow on the topmost parameter or the down arrow on the bottommost parameter didn't "wrap" the parameter as you would intuit. Now it does.

REMOVED
Bulk Add

The "Bulk Add" feature was functionally redundant with the "Bulk Edit" feature and so has been removed to reduce code and UI complexity.

FIXED
Parameter mis-edited when canceling on Bulk Edit parameter length warning dialog

This is a 2 or 3-way defect (depending on how you model the problem) when using bulk edit to make a parameter newly over 8 values, then canceling after receiving the parameter length warning.

Resolved.

REMOVED
Parameter name insertion on auto-script start/finish fields

Thanks to Vishal for pointing out the inconsistency.

NEW
Plan Scorecard warning for extremely small test plans

If you have 4 or fewer parameters there is now a warning in the Plan Scorecard.

FIXED
Table misalignment on IE 9

In very rare cases the generated tests table could have a row with misaligned columns due to this bug in IE 9. A work around is now in place.

FIXED
Error when changing only parameter name case in Bulk Edit

Thanks to Khurram for reporting the issue.

IMPROVED
Handling blank values in bulk parameter edit

A blank parameter value in comma separated parameter values during a bulk edit would error out the edit with a vague error message.

Blank values are now ignored in bulk edits.

Thanks to Zach who pointed out how vague the error message was.

May 26, 2015
FIXED
"Hide for this plan" link on the large plan warning closed the plan and opened the manage plan dialog

This has been resolved.

IMPROVED
Switching between single and bulk parameter add preserves data entered thus far
IMPROVED
"Any value" test case parameter value text changed to "Any valid value"

This change emphasizes that you still need to chose a value that satisfies the plan's constraints.

May 17, 2015
IMPROVED
The expected result field of a requirement can now contain significantly more text
May 6, 2015
FIXED
Improved read-only styling on empty requirements view

Fixed styling when a plan is shared in a project, has no requirements, and you have "Copy and Comment" access to the project (Note the combinatorial cause).

This is the first work done by our new development intern Scott. Congratulations!

FIXED
Plan import errors not shown on plan re-import

Comprehensive error messages are shown when a plan fails to import due to internal consistency issues when creating a new plan but were not shown when re-importing a plan (classic 2-way defect). Now they are shown in both cases.

IMPROVED
Excel values are stripped of leading and trailing white space on plan import

This should avoid many hard to spot value mismatches.

April 25, 2015
FIXED
Expected results and range values

Auto-script expected results were triggered by a numeric range value even when out of the range.

IMPROVED
More detailed error messages on plan import

When importing a plan that has an invalid format or invalid data, Hexawise will now provide additional info on the name of the Excel tab that has the invalid data.

IMPROVED
Mixed-strength tests always shown as an option for the Coverage Graph and Plan Scorecard

Thanks to Vikas for pointing out the omission.

March 13, 2015
FIXED
Requirements value drop down selection in IE9

Selecting a drop down value with the mouse rather than the keyboard was broken in some cases in the IE 9 browser. A relatively rare 3-way defect found in production for those keeping track.

Thanks to Vikas for finding and reporting the issue!

FIXED
Issue in plan import

A rare case during plan import caused invalid pair validation to fail and abort the import. This has been fixed.

FIXED
Couldn't select Plan Scorecard or Matrix Chart after picking a new strength for the Coverage Chart

This "order of operations" defect is now fixed.

Live Test Design Support

We're using a new system for live test design support for customers that pay for live support. The new system has a "memory" of your discussions so you can refer back to them and more seamlessly blends live and asynchronous discussions. We're excited about the improvements!

FIXED
Graphical glitches when showing Hexawise system messages

On some screen sizes and resolutions. Also addressed overly wide dialog.
