Online editing
With the new package onboarding experience, you no longer need to prepare everything for the app package offline and then upload the zip file to Test Base. Scripts are auto generated for you, and you can modify the scripts online with our new code editor. You can also preview your package structure and indicate script paths by simply assigning tags.

More app formats
To help organizations that use Intune to deploy applications save time, we now support the .intunewin package format. Instead of looking for the original .exe or .msi installation files and recreating any customizations you applied, you can simply upload your existing ,intunewin files directly to Test Base.

Customizable test type
As many of you are looking for more flexibility when selecting which tests to run, we have made out of box tests optional. This simplifies test configuration for those of you who just want to run functional tests.

Clone packages
We have received feedback that some Test Base users want to change the package .zip file content, but keep the same test and OS configuration settings when adding new packages. For this scenario, you can now create a new package by simply duplicating a previously published package, saving you the time and effort involved in filling out all the configuration information.
