Siesta – Change Log
Release history for Siesta
Version 5.6.1, 2022-07-04 14:12
FEATURES / ENHANCEMENTS
- Fixed typo in documentation
Version 5.6.0, 2022-06-29 11:19
FEATURES / ENHANCEMENTS
- Added support for running tests in LambdaTest cloud infrastructure
- `throwsOkAsync/livesOkAsync` assertions now tracks unhandled promise rejections
API CHANGES
- If a chain step function returns a promise and in the same time calls a step’s callback (1st argument of the step function), the 1st callback call is now ignored – previously was generating an error. The error is now generated starting from the 2nd call to callback. If a chain step function returns a promise it should not use the callback.
BUG FIXES
- Fixed a bug, that `change` event was not simulated after focus move away from input field, inside the nested iframe
- Fixed a bug, that test with `async` test function could be finalized prematurily, if running with `enablePageRedirect` option
- Fixed a bug, that typing a SHIFT+TAB combination could focus incorrect element, if previous sibling has `tabIndex === -1`
- Fixed a bug, that `waitFor` method could leak memory when the page URL is changed
Version 5.5.2, 2021-05-12 14:11
FEATURES / ENHANCEMENTS

Version 5.2.0, 2019-02-01 11:10
FEATURES / ENHANCEMENTS
- Siesta now supports using Ecma6 modules in your Node tests, with `esm` loader. No special configuration is needed, just write your tests as Ecma modules. Note, that when running tests as Ecma6 modules in the browsers, the `isEcmaModule` config should still be specified
- Added a sample test suite for a Vue app and a corresponding guide.
- Bumped Nyc dependency to support code coverage for Ecma6 modules
- Added `–inspect` and `–inspect-brk` command line options, to support debugging when testing in Node.js (previouly one would need to use –node-arg to pass this arguments to Node process). Passing this options will switch to `–max-workers=1` to avoid collision of debugger instances. More details in `–help` (Fixes #7302)
- Spies can now be used on generator functions (tracks only calls to generator function itself, not to the iterator)
- Added `ignoreCssClasses` config on Siesta.Recorder.Recorder class to be able to ignore certain CSS classes when recording locators (Fixes #7213)
- Siesta now correctly sets the `code` property of all keyboard events
- The <script> tags of the ES modules are now created with the `crossorigin` attribute set to “use-credentials”
- For screenshots manipulation, Siesta now first tries to use the ImageMagic commands installed in the OS, and only then the bundled binaries
- Puppeteer launcher updated to version 1.9.0
API CHANGES
- The default Spy behavior has been changed to `callThrough`, better docs for `spyOn`.
BUG FIXES
- Fixed a bug, that would throw an exception, when using `isDeeply` assertion in Node.js
- Fixed a bug, that would throw exception when using Node.js and applying 2 different spies to the same method.
- Fixed a bug, that could prevent the launch of native events simulation server in Linux environment, when using –xvfb option
- Fixed a bug, that could cause the tests, snoozed with `t.snooze()` method to execute in wrong order
- Fixed a bug, that was preventing the remote Selenium Server to start
- Fixed #6955: Synthetic events don’t trigger ‘change’ event when an input is blurred
Version 5.1.1, 2018-10-08 09:12
BUG FIXES
- Fixed a bug, that could cause the `SessionNotCreatedError` exception, when testing with Safari 12 locally
Version 5.1.0, 2018-10-01 19:43
This release introduces a completely rewritten code coverage module. It now runs on latest Istanbul, supports all Istanbul reports and ES6 syntax. Please refer to the “Code coverage” guide: https://www.bryntum.com/docs/siesta/#!/guide/code_coverage
FEATURES / ENHANCEMENTS
- Default value of the `–max-workers` config for the Puppeteer and NodeJS launchers set to 5. Default value of the `–chunk-size` config for the Puppeteer launcher set to 3. These are the optimal configs for running small (< 30) test suites in maximum parallelization.
- Added `[ESC]` alias for the `[ESCAPE]` special key code
API CHANGES
- The configuration options `enableCodeCoverage` have been removed. Code coverage is now available from the command line only and is controlled with the `–nyc.reporter` option.
- The configuration options `includeCoverageUnit` and `excludeCoverageUnit` have been removed. Use `–nyc.include`, `–nyc.exclude` instead.
- The configuration option `coverageUnit` has been removed. Code coverage is now always collected per file. To get the same results from the bundled code – pre-instrument the codebase before bundling.
- The command line option `–previous-coverage-report` has been removed. To create a combined coverage report from several consequent test suite launches, specify the `–nyc.clean=false` for the 2nd and following launches
- The default value of the “forceDOMVisible” config for MS Edge is set to `true` now. This is to workaround the observed issues with “document.elementFromPoint” implementation in this browser
- The Puppeteer launcher no longer redirects the stderr to `bin/webdriver.log`
BUG FIXES
- Fixed a bug, that would make exceptions, thrown synchronously during Node.js test execution, to appear in hard to read form
- Fixed a bug, that would prevent using the `–proxy` option for Chrome and Firefox drivers
- Fixed a bug, that would result in the exit code 1 for “snoozed” tests, failed with exception
- Fixed #2009: Instrumenter bug
- Fixed #3232: Siesta crashes during code cov data generation in TaskBoard 2.x
- Fixed #2265: Implement offline instrumentation
Version 5.0.0, 2018-07-28 08:06
This Siesta release re-introduces Node.js support, which has outdated with recent Node versions. If your tests don’t involve DOM, it will be much faster to run them in Node.js environment.
This release also features a new mode for simulation of user actions – native events. In this mode, a real, OS-level events are simulated, so for example, when test will issue a “mouseMove” command, a real mouse cursor will be moved. This allows precisely test some intrinsic browser behavior, which synthetic simulation can not capture. Please refer to the docs for the `simulation` config.
Siesta API now uses native JavaScript “promises” for all user actions and chain steps. See below for details.
FEATURES / ENHANCEMENTS
- All methods for simulation user actions, like `click`, `rightClick`, `type`, “dragTo`, `moveMouseTo` etc now also return a `Promise`, which is resolved once the action has completed. The old API with callbacks is still supported Note, that `chain` method still seems to be more convenient for sequencing user actions.
- If a `Promise` is returned from the test function (or it is an `async/await` function) – Siesta now waits until that promise is resolved/rejected before finalizing the test (Fixes #6235). Please refer to the `/examples/browser/1.unit-tests/returning_promise.t.js` for the example
- If a `Promise` is returned from chain step function, or step function is `async/await` – Siesta now waits until that promise is resolved/rejected to continue the chain. Please refer to the `/examples/browser/1.unit-tests/chain_step_with_promise.t.js` for the example
- The values of the “–cap” configs are now 1st tried to been parsed as JSON, and, if parsing succeeds, the resulting JSON object will be assigned to the config value. Otherwise the value is used as raw string
- HTML report user interface now auto-expands the failed sub-tests (Fixes #6429)
API CHANGES
- The notion of “harness” has been renamed to “project” everywhere in sources, docs, and examples. So `Siesta.Harness.Browser` is now `Siesta.Project.Browser` etc. Old names are still supported as aliases.
- The `wait` and `endWait` methods have been deprecated and removed from the documentation (still can be used)
- The deprecated method `drag` has been removed. Please use `dragTo/dragBy` instead
- The `mouseOver/mouseOut` methods have been removed. Please use regular mouse movement methods instead
- The synchronous variants of the following methods are no longer supported `type`, `keyPress`, `click`, `rightClick`, `mouseDown`, `mouseUp`. All these methods are now always asynchronous
- The `earlySetup` method is now called for the tests with disabled sandboxing
- It is now mandatory to call the SUPER implementation of the `setup` and `earlySetup` test methods, please refer to the updated docs.
- The deprecated PhantomJS launcher has been removed from the package, please use Puppeteer launcher instead, or headless Chrome
- The SlimerJS launcher has been removed from the package, please use Puppeteer launcher instead, or headless Firefox
BUG FIXES
- Fixed #6084: Mousedown event missing pointerType
Version 4.4.4, 2018-04-18 11:13
FEATURES / ENHANCEMENTS
- New WebDriver launcher command line option: –ff-pref, allows to set the preference in the Firefox profile
- Two new assertion methods – `throwsOkAsync` and `livesOkAsync`, which allows to test the exception during asynchronous code. Please refer to the docs for more details.
- Two new matchers added to Element class: hasSameWidth and hasSameHeight, two compare size of two DOM elements
- New config option added – `failOnPromiseRejection` (enabled by default) (Fixes #5645)
- Siesta now does not throw exception to determine the current source line, if browser supports `new Error().stack` construct. This helps during debugging with “Pause on caught exceptions” setting enabled (Fixes #6028)
- The error message of the `waitForComponentQueryVisible` now provides more information (Fixes #5907)
- Siesta now correctly works with SVG elements in IE11 / MSEdge (Fixes #2198)
- Siesta now always show a user-provided description from the “waitFor” method, even if waiting has completed synchronously
- Slightly improved the “BDD conventions” guide
- Improved firing of the mouse events in some edge cases, like removing the click target from the DOM during the click
BUG FIXES
- Fixed targeting form fields in ExtJS 6.5.x Modern
- Fixed #5686: Siesta cannot record CMD-+
- Fixed #5694: Siesta.Test#failWithException doesn’t provide callstack
- Fixed #5883: Siesta records vanilla button click as weird drag

Version 4.4.0, 2017-12-05 09:35
FEATURES / ENHANCEMENTS
- WebDriver launcher now supports a new config option `–headless` (supported for Chrome >= 60 / Firefox >= 57) which opens browser in headless mode and makes it safe to use –max-workers option!
- New automation launcher, based on headless Chrome + Puppeteer. This launcher is a replacement for the one based on very poorly maintained PhantomJS project. You can try it with `bin/puppeteer`, featurewise it is equivalent to other launchers

Version 4.3.1, 2017-08-03 10:02
FEATURES / ENHANCEMENTS
- The “scale to fit” UI option can now scale to single dimension only (scale to fit width, scale to fit height)
- Siesta now supports the usage of ES6 arrow functions in the “t.chain()” method (Fixed #4355) t.chain(next => { …; next() })
- New config `isEcmaModule` allows to load script file or preload files as the ES6 modules (<script type=”module”>)
- Ariadne now uses its own implementation of the `nth-child` pseudo in the component queries, `ariadne-nth-child`. Turns out, the stock `nth-child` is implemented completely incorrectly, using the position of the node in the result set, instead of the position in the siblings collection. This should improve component queries finding in certain cases.
- Siesta now supports escaping of special characters sequence, for example, to type the text “[F3]” into some text field, specify it as “[[F3]]”
BUG FIXES
- Fixed #4579: Support Ext6 “modern/desktop” mode
- Fixed #4353: Selected text in readOnly INPUT element cleared when typing

- Added support for simulating ‘wheel’ event. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/WheelEvent
- Harness page now recognize the following query strings “filter” (set the tests grid filter) and “autolaunch” (launch all tests, respecting filter), so to launch test “my_test.js” one can open the link: http://myharness.com/?filter=my_test&autolaunch=1 The link to the test can be copied from the test grid context menu (Fixed #4252)
- A new config option “referenceUrl” has been added. CTRL+click on such tests in the Siesta UI will open a new browser window with “referenceUrl”. Can be used to attach links to external resources (like tickets, screenshots, etc) to the tests.
- SlimerJS has been updated to latest 0.10.3 (supports Firefox up to 52) (Fixed #4267)
API CHANGES
- The monkey actions log from `monkeyTest` method is now included as part of the assertion output, and not as the separate test warning. It now also includes only the actually played actions (Fixed #3469)
BUG FIXES
- Fixed a bug, where the ‘input’ events were not simulated when typing [BACKSPACE] and [DELETE] special characters

Version 4.2.2, 2016-12-15 18:21
FEATURES / ENHANCEMENTS
- Siesta Recorder is now supported in all modern browsers (IE10+)
- Siesta.Recorder now implements a new config – `shouldIgnoreDomElementId` (Fixed #3586)
- Siesta Recorder now supports the following new options: `recordWindowResize/recordInitialWindowSize`. Please refer to the docs
- The behavior of recording a `moveCursorTo` action when mouse is idle for some time is now controlled by a new recorder config option: `recordMouseMoveOnIdle`
- The behavior of recording a `moveCursorTo` action when mouse cursor goes of certain “points of interest”, like grid column headers and menu items, is now controlled by a new recorder config option: `recordPointsOfInterest`
- Siesta Recorder now has a new option: `recordMouseMovePath`, which when enabled, will disable the `recordMouseMoveOnIdle` and `recordPointsOfInterest`. This option will record the mouse movement path and generate `moveCursorAlongPath` action
- Siesta Recorder now has a new option: `recordScroll`, which when enabled, will record scroll events from all elements on the page
- New methods for the Siesta.Test.Browser test class – `moveCursorAlongPath` and `scrollTo`, please refer to the doc
- Compatibility fixes for `PointerEvent` enabled by default starting from Chrome 55. When using `Siesta.Test.SenchaTouch` test class and both `PointerEvent` and `TouchEvent` are available Siesta still uses `TouchEvents` (for backward compatibility)
- Siesta now includes “Bowser” library for browser detection (Thanks for a lot for the respective authors). It is available as `bowser` global on the harness page and `bowser` property of the test class. See the docs for details.
- The “click” and “dblclick” events are now more correctly fired in the same event loop iteration as the “mouseup” event (Fixed #3622)
BUG FIXES
- Fixed a bug, that was preventing code coverage feature to work with ExtJS 6 applications using microloader
- Fixed a bug, that could cause `t.query()` method to return incorrect results for CSS selectors
- Fixed #3207: autoRun : true not respected
- Fixed #3674: String not quoted when generating code for arrays including strings
- Fixed #3682: Single quotes not escaped in title attr querying
- Fixed #3717: Use Sizzle for ‘nth-of-type’ queries in IE
- Fixed #3723: Key events not simulated for readOnly text fields
- Fixed #3757: Recorder crash in Ext JS 4.2.x
- Fixed #3765: Crash when clicking SVG path node (has no className)
- Fixed #3290: Review use of this.lastMoveCursorToEl
Version 4.2.1, 2016-11-22 10:55
FEATURES / ENHANCEMENTS
- New command line option added “–randomize-tests-order”. Helps you ensure your tests do not depend on each other. Also if you have some heavy tests, grouped in the certain place of the test suite, this option will sort of balance the load across the whole suite
- Fixed #3474: Improve error message for wrong action object
API CHANGES
- When testing in BrowserStack, Siesta now enables popups in IE and Safari by default, by setting the `browserstack.ie.enablePopups` and `browserstack.safari.enablePopups` capabilities to `true`. If you need to disable popups in BrowserStack set those capabilities to `false` explicitly (Fixed #3532)
BUG FIXES
- Fixed a bug, that was causing “type” action to be incorrectly exported from recorder
- Fixed a bug – Siesta Recorder fail to replay the selectors with escaped special characters inside of “:contains()” pseudo selector (normal playback not affected)
- Fixed #3449: isElementVisible: Should not decide visibility status based on local style
- Fixed #3505: Siesta recorder should only consider possible targets available at mouse down
- Fixed #3577: Enter key not triggering form submit
- Fixed #3591: Double quotes not escaped in “Show source” output
- Fixed #3610: Siesta can’t click on the rotated element
Version 4.2.0, 2016-10-24 21:55
FEATURES / ENHANCEMENTS
- Siesta Recorder now uses Ariadne – a newly developed selector finding engine. It can find both DOM and Component queries and uses only the minimal required number of CSS classes / attributes, so the queries are smaller. In the same time, it avoids using positional selectors like “:nth-child()”, direct child selector “>” as much as possible, so queries are robust to future changes in the markup
- [Linux only] Added new command line argument –xvfb, which wraps every browser window (Chrome and Firefox) in its own virtual desktop, using xvfb server. Browser windows won’t fight for focus in this case and this allows you to safely specify the greater than 1 values for –max-workers config. Greatly speeds up test suite execution
- Added new test method `query` – which resolves an action target as if it would be defined by the Siesta.Test.ActionTarget string, see the docs for additional details
- Added `assertTextPresent` assertion to verify a text is present (Fixed #2073).
- Added two new test methods for simulating browser window blur/focus (`simulateDeactivateWindow` and `simulateActivateWindow`)
- Added new `moveCursorBy` chain action, you can now call it in a chain like `{ moveCursorBy : [4,5] }`
- Siesta now keeps the virtual cursor visible after finalizing the test
- Added new harness config option `showTestDurationColumn` – self-explanatory (Fixed #3253)

- Siesta now issues a meaningful error, when `describe` (except the top-level one) is used without test instance (`describe()` instead of `t.describe()`) (Fixed #2091)
- Launchers will now read the “siesta.json” file with the default config values from the current working directory (or from one of the parent directories), so once you’ve created such file, you can launch a test suite with just: `webdriver` (assuming `__siesta__/bin` is in PATH) (Fixed #2892)
- TeamCity failure messages now includes test’s hierarchy (Fixed #2989)
- Fixed #2076: Recorder: Add copy to clipboard button

Version 4.0.0-beta-1, 2015-09-06 18:28
This release introduces a major refactoring of the Siesta automation launchers. Launchers now support parallelization, so you can run your tests suites several times faster, depending on how many parallel sessions you can open.
Our screenshot API got some love too. It is now capable of capturing individual DOM elements and comparing the screenshots with either previous version or with a corresponding screenshot from another set.
We’ve also added a new experimental headless launcher for SlimerJS, for those who prefer to test their projects on the FireFox rendering engine instead of WebKit. It requires `xvfb` to be used in non-graphical environments, however the big advantage of SlimerJS is that it (unlike PhantomJS) uses the real rendering engine from the FireFox web browser.
KNOWN ISSUES
- SlimerJS launcher uses an outdated version of XulRunner (corresponds to FireFox 33) on MacOS
- Included PhantomJS binaries may not work on distributions other than 64 bit Debian/Ubuntu. PhantomJS team does not provide binaries for Linux platform.
FEATURES / ENHANCEMENTS
- A new and quite important command line option has been added: –max-workers. It controls the parallelization and defines how many browser windows can be opened at the same time. Normally it would be used with the BrowserStack or SauceLabs infrastructures. Please see the updated automation guide about details on parallelization implementation.
- Screenshots are now cropped by the test page size
- The `screenshot` method is now capable of taking screenshots of individual DOM elements (there’s also a new convenience wrapper called `screenshotElement`)
- A new `–screenshot-dir` command line option, specifying the base directory for the screenshots
- A new `–screenshot-compare-with-previous` and `–screenshot-compare-with-base` command line options has been added, both perform comparison of screenshots taken during the test suite execution with the previous (or base) version
- It is now possible to interact with popup windows, using the new `switchTo` test method
- It is now possible to read command line options from the file with the JSON object, using the –config-file option
- Introduced experimental option: –restart-on-blur (and corresponding harness option `restartOnBlur`). When enabled in automation, if the test window loses focus for any reason the test is restarted.
- The “browserstack.local” WebDriver capability is now automatically set to `true`
- Harness can now discover the list of test file descriptors from the filesystem, see `startFromUrl` method. The file with test descriptors can be auto-generated with the new `bin/discover` tool. Run the `bin/discover –help` for options. (Fixed #2199)
- Added a new guide about testing Ext JS 6 apps generated with Sencha Cmd
- Fixed #592: Test should fail if any of the preloads for a test are missing
- Fixed #2163: Add support for clearing text before typing
- Fixed #2016: Let user see source of test from UI w/o running test
API CHANGES
- Java 7 is the minimum required version now (enforced by the latest Selenium package)
- The “*” value of the –browser config option for WebDriver launcher is no longer supported. WebDriver launcher run the test suite for single browser only (this may change in the future). This option now has a default value – “chrome”.
- The order of tests execution when running in automation mode with parallelization is naturally not strictly sequential. You should not rely on one particular test being launcher after another test (even if it goes below in the “Harness.start()” list) every test should run standalone.
- Assertions from tests are now listed all at once, after the test has completed and not in real time as before (when running with the –verbose switch)
- The –page-pause command line option has been removed
- The –page-size command line option has been renamed to –chunk-size (old name is still supported), default value has changed to 20
- The `–report-file-prefix` option has been deprecated in favor of `–report-file`. Both options now support templates.
- The default value for `pauseBetweenTests` harness config and `–pause` command line option is now 10ms
- The default value for the `sandboxBoundaryByGroup` harness config has changed to `true`
- Removed deprecated and undocumented test class methods “skip” and “skipIf”
BUG FIXES
- Fixed 2 race conditions, which could cause an exception if the same test is repeatedly restarted (under network load)
- Fixed a bug in `type` method that could cause removal of the selected test when typing special characters into input elements
- Fixed a bug that could cause exception in IE after reloading a page and clicking on elements of the new page
- Fixed #2179: getCell doesn’t work after cell is edited
- Fixed #1882: Show the test that has timed out in the log, as failed
Version 3.1.0, 2015-07-09 14:00
This is a medium size release with quite a few improvements and bug fixes. Siesta will now handle complex web applications UI much better. If you intend to click a button which is temporarily hidden behind some loadmask, Siesta will now patiently wait for the button to be accessible. For you as a test author, this means less manual waitFor-steps and much more reliable tests. Same thing goes for moving or animating targets, Siesta will wait for the target to be still before attempting to interact with it. We hope you’ll see the results of this in your suite, less sporadic failures and less race conditions. More information about this on our blog: https://bryntum.com/blog/testing-complex-web-applications-with-siesta
FEATURES / ENHANCEMENTS
- Fixed #2078: Add a “setValue” chain method
- waitForRowsVisible now also accepts a TableView as input
- Added `innerHtmlHead` and `innerHtmlBody` configs, to allow more precise control over the created iframe/popup for unit tests (Fixed #987)
- Added a hot key to launch the currently selected test (CTRL-E). Can be configured with the ‘rerunHotKey’ config (Fixed #1187)
- Siesta now handles unstable targets that move or are temporarily hidden while Siesta is moving the cursor towards it. This leads to a slightly different behavior when locating targets in the DOM (see below).
- Siesta now handles calls to native `alert/prompt/confirm` methods without freezing the page. Use `setNextConfirmReturnValue`, `setNextPromptReturnValue` to control the results of these calls.
API CHANGES
- Slight change in the behavior when clicking a target that is not visible or ‘reachable’ in the DOM. Previously if an element was not reachable, it could be interacted with anyway. Siesta is more strict about this now, and it will now wait for targets to be visible and reachable before click/drag etc.
- Global variable checking now only reports the first 50 unexpected globals.
BUG FIXES
- Fixed #1921: Monkey test crashes if clicking a link causing page redirect
- Fixed #1981: Siesta: Selecting all test source code from UI will remove syntax colorization

- Fixed #1869: Exception from launcher if using –previous-coverage-report
- Fixed #1982: Siesta can not be found on the page.
- Fixed #2022: Siesta UI: Long test names push buttons off the screen

BUG FIXES
- Fixed a bug – when test files list is filtered, clicking “Run all” runs the whole test suite, instead of filtered tests
- Fixed a bug – recorder could not find user-defined CSS classes in ExtJS 5 grid
- Fixed a bug – sometimes focus is removed from the 1st test of the current chunk (IE only)
- Fixed a bug in the “Getting started” guide, where harness html wrapper file was still referencing ExtJS 4.2.0 files

Version 3.0.0, 2015-04-08 09:21
FEATURES / ENHANCEMENTS
- Siesta can now run a Jasmine suite as its own test file, see the `jasmine` option of the `Siesta.Harness.Browser` class
- Proper simulation of touch events has been implemented, this lead to certain API changes (see below).
- A new command line switch “–touch-events” added for WebDriver launcher. Currently only recognized by Chrome. It enables the browser’s touch events support, so you can test touch-based interfaces in normal desktop browsers
- Implemented the “t.beforeEach/afterEach()” methods for the test specs
- Implemented spies for BDD layer, repeating the Jasmine functionality and syntax with certain additional extensions. See the `spyOn` method (and follow the “see also”) in documentation (Fixed #1825)
- Implemented the “t.chainForArray()” method, which runs a chain of steps, generated from the elements of an array
- Added a new config option: `failOnExclusiveSpecsWhenAutomated` which causes Siesta to add a failing assertion when running in automation mode and some exclusive spec (like `t.iit()` or `t.ddescribe()`) is found. Disabled by default.
- When `waitForComponentVisible/waitForComponentNotVisible` method receives a string with component query, they now wait until it resolves to some component, instead of failing immediately
- The context menu of the test files grid now has “Filter to current group” and “Filter to failed” items, with self explanatory actions
- Certain improvements in memory consumption has been made. Siesta now accumulates memory much slower than before. We’ll continue research in this area.
- Selenium version upgraded to 2.45.0 (supports Firefox 36)
- Siesta now add a failing assertion, if `next` callback of some chain step is called more than once
- Added _experimental_ feature to run tests in the popups. See `runInPopup` option.
API CHANGES
- IMPORTANT: Siesta UI is now based on ExtJS 5.1. Please update the links in your harness html files. Also, add the Ext charts package, if you’re using the code coverage feature. See the updates examples for the proper includes to use.
- IMPORTANT: The obsolete Siesta Mobile UI was removed. If you were using `siesta-touch-all.js` bundle switch to regular `siesta-all.js` and ExtJS desktop user interface
- The implementation of “tap, doubleTap, longPress, pinch, swipe” methods was moved from the `Siesta.Test.SenchaTouch` test class to the `Siesta.Test.Browser` test class. Their interfaces were aligned to the interface of the “click” method.
- The drag and drop using touch events has been re-implemented as the “touchDragTo”, “touchDragBy” methods and the “touchDrag” action (you will need to update your touch-based tests that were using “drag” action)
- `keepResults` option has been removed. Use the `keepNLastResults` option instead.

Version 1.2.0-beta-1, 2013-04-08 11:20
KNOWN ISSUES
- The Sencha Touch based mobile UI has not been updated yet, use the ExtJS UI in the meantime
FEATURES / ENHANCEMENTS
- Added support for BDD syntax, please refer to the guide “Writing tests in BDD conventions” for an introduction
- Assertions “is”, “isStrict”, “isDeeply” and their opposites now work with the BDD placeholders generated with the new method “any”
- Added support for “sub tests” – independent tests which have their own order of assertions. See the “subTest” method. Tests and assertions now form a tree structure. This is useful if you test several asynchronous processes in parallel and would like to see a sane order of generated assertions
- When assertion description is omitted, Siesta now generates a sensible default text, for example: “1 is equal to 1”, “Foo matches regexp /foo/i” etc (Thanks to Brian Moeskau for suggestion!)
- Added `isString/isObject/isBoolean/etc` assertions, each checking the according type of the supplied value
- Updated Selenium to 2.31.0. It includes built-in support for Safari WebDriver, so it no longer requires compilation from sources
- Added new method: waitForCQNotVisible (Fixed #644)
- WebDriver launcher now reports the OS and browser version it runs the tests on (Fixed #456)

- Fixed #574: Add filter for showing only failed assertions (button added to the assertion grid).
API CHANGES
- [BREAKING] ‘overrideSetTimeout’ on the Siesta.Harness class now defaults to `false`. To keep the old overriding behavior, you should set it explicitly to `true`.
- [BREAKING] when ‘hostPageUrl’ option is set on some test descriptor, it will now turn it’s ‘preload’ to empty array (Thanks to Brian Moeskau for suggestion!) (more precisely it will block the inheritance of the ‘preload’ option from parent descriptor/harness, ‘preload’ option still can be set to non-empty array directly on such test descriptor Fixed #577: By default ignore parent value and set “preload” to [] for tests with “hostPageUrl”)
- [BREAKING] The newly added “isArray” assertion replaces the previously existing private method “isArray”, which was renamed to “valueIsArray” (if you were using that private method in your tests then rename its occurrences accordingly)
- The “todo” method now starts a new sub-test
- “firesOk” assertion has been completely rewritten and generalized, see the updates docs. The old signature will still be supported.
- `willFireNTimes` assertion is deprecated and removed from the documentation, please use “firesOk” instead
- removed deprecated and unstable Selenium RC launcher from the package, newer and more stable WebDriver launcher provides a drop-in replacement command-line interface
- [BREAKING] the JSON report format was extended to reflect the tree structure of assertions. Assertions now contains “type” property, can be one of the following: “Siesta.Result.Assertion/Siesta.Result.Diagnostic/Siesta.Result.SubTest”. To keep the previous behavior, filter and use only “Siesta.Result.Assertion” entries.
BUG FIXES
- Fixed a bug in the `matchGridCellContent` that caused the method to work incorrectly with plain strings
- Fixed #590: Siesta should handle req.status === 0 for preloading
