Changelog 2022.09

Graph Timestamps on Hover

The time series graphs in the load test report now show a hover line with the precise timestamp when you hover the graph. This makes it easier to correlate spikes or errors with data from your APM system or server logs.

Trace Filtering

You can now filter the traces in the Traces section of your load test report, to easily find traces for a particular URL or error message. The table now includes trace error messages (if any) so it’s easier to find the trace you’re interested in without clicking on them.

Request Details in Protocol Traces

Traces from Protocol Bots now include details about the HTTP request, not just the response. Clicking on a trace will reveal all the request headers, and usually the request body as well, as long as the body length didn’t exceed a set limit. This makes it easier to tell what your bots sent that resulted in the errors.

Faster Script Playing from North America and Europe

We’ve deployed dedicated bare metal script players for the North America and Europe regions. If you designate one of these regions as your Script Player in Settings, your scripts will now start within milliseconds in most cases.

Speedway Limit Emails

Speedway now emails you if you are approaching or have exceeded the maximum monitoring requests or robocall and text message notifications for your Speedway plan. This gives you notice that your monitors may stop running you or stop notifying you if the limit is exceeded, so you can decide whether to upgrade your plan or wait until the limits reset next month.

Other Improvements & Bug Fixes

• Fixed a bug in Speedway that prevented deletion of notification policies when in use.
• Fixed a bug with Ctrl-C/Cmd-C copying text from the script logs in the script player.
• Introduced browser.setCookie() as a way to set cookies from outside the browser in code blocks.
• Fixed a regression with browser.setFiles() in a code block. Ordinary Files steps were unaffected.
• Improved font legibility in the Variables dialog.
• Increased precision of sub-second response times to 3 digits.
• Fixed a minor scrolling annoyance that occurred after saving a long script.
