Qualitia Boson Release Notes (Build 9.0.7879)

This release introduces OmniStudio automation, Salesforce connection authorization, cross-project reuse of Salesforce artifacts, and MCP reporting integration. It also extends Salesforce actions and improves import, execution, locking, and indexing. Known limitations are listed below.

What’s New

·       OmniStudio automation. Discover and selectively import OmniScripts and FlexCards through the dedicated OmniStudio source. Search resources and fields, preview selections, and use supported imported controls to create and execute Salesforce tasks.

·       OmniStudio repository and synchronization. OmniScripts and FlexCards appear in separate repository groups. Version-aware OmniScript names and referenced custom LWC metadata support identification and authoring. Refresh imported content through Change Management or reimport. For portal-based content, enable Experience Cloud on the Salesforce connection.

·       Salesforce connection authorization. Authorize a saved Salesforce connection through a configured connected app. Use SFDC.OpenOrg with the authorized connection to open the organization without separate username, password, and login steps. Initial Salesforce authentication is required; authorization is completed separately for each user.

·       Cross-project Salesforce artifact import. Import Salesforce test cases and tasks from another project into the currently open project through Import > Qualitia Artifacts. Review New, Conflicted, and Matching groups; only New and Conflicted items are eligible for import.

·       Import comparison and impact review. Compare added, removed, and modified steps before replacing conflicted content. Conflicted tasks show impacted test cases. Review required Salesforce connections; select a destination scenario for test cases. After import, review connections and apply Change Management to retrieve current Salesforce object details.

·       MCP reporting integration. Use ChatGPT Business, Claude Desktop, or Cursor to query existing Qualitia Reports and Dashboard data. Review executions, test cases, iterations, failed steps, logs, defect counts, and available images, with follow-up questions for supporting evidence.

MCP provides read-only access. Enable aiSettings.mcp.isEnabled in Qualitia Server settings before generating execution data for reporting, then configure the supported client. ChatGPT Business requires the administrator-configured tunnel and published Qualitia plugin. Answers depend on available reporting records and the identifiers supplied.

What’s Improved?

·       Searchable multi-select controls. SFDCMultiSelect supports Add, Remove, RemoveAll, StoreSelectedItems, StoreAvailableItems, and VerifySelectedItems. Add, Remove, and VerifySelectedItems accept multiple values separated by ^. StoreAvailableItems captures currently available options. Review migrated objects previously classified as picklists before validating existing automation.

·       Salesforce Path stage actions. SFDC.StoreCurrentStage reads the current stage and prints it in the execution result or log. SFDC.VerifyCurrentStage compares it with an expected stage. The release reference describes these actions as usable without importing or recording a Progress Indicator object.

·       Dynamic table actions. ClickRowButtonByRowText clicks a button in a row identified by visible text; SelectRowByText selects its checkbox; SetCellValueByRowText updates an inline-editable cell using row text, column name, and value. These actions reduce dependence on row position.

·       Experience Cloud imports. Site-scoped imports improve page relationships and layout/component associations. Page variations and required-marker label handling improve import consistency.

·       Field metadata and runtime handling. Richer picklist values, dependency information, and lookup samples assist authoring. Control resolution and action-aware waits improve supported execution scenarios.

Value Addition (Key Fixes)

The release reference records the following fixes and reliability improvements. Scenario-specific limitations that remain open are retained under Known Issues.

·       Import and reimport integrity. Improved locator refresh, duplicate prevention, and identity preservation help retain object, task, and test-data relationships. Distinct identities for repeated generated OmniStudio labels reduce incorrect association risks.

·       More accurate Change Management details. Improved cache loading and stale-response handling reduce outdated field details. Incomplete Experience Cloud impact discovery reports failure rather than a partial successful result.

·       Execution reliability. Improved handling of custom controls, active modals, lookups, picklists, and session recovery strengthens supported automation. Action-aware save settlement reduces unnecessary waits during read and verification steps.

·       Platform locking. Bulk lock resolution, atomic release of versioned locks, and artifact identity handling improve lock lifecycle and concurrent operations.

Large-project processing. Batched imports, chunked Query Engine writes, and improved index rebuilds support large Salesforce projects. Actual performance depends on project size and environment.

Known Issues

·       Experience Cloud configuration message. Import shows a technical error when Experience Cloud is not enabled in the Salesforce organization.

·       Empty parameter dropdowns. Affected OmniStudio lookup, picklist, radio button, and dual-list fields do not allow normal value entry.

·       Missing imported controls. Some Child Care OmniStudio controls, including add-member, activity, provider-type, and income controls, are absent.

·       Incorrect repository names. Some imported OmniStudio objects have incorrect names.

·       Overlapping icon. The Custom Component icon overlaps adjacent Salesforce Task Management content.

·       Concurrent publishing message. The second user receives a generic error instead of an explanation that another user holds the publishing lock.

·       Project startup timing. Opening a test case immediately after project launch can show a fetch or empty-step error. Waiting approximately five seconds is the reported workaround.

·       Import without test data

·       Desktop TSR deletion. Deletion can fail with a version-lock error. Cancelling or closing the dialog can leave the TSR self-locked.

·       Repeated Experience Cloud object names. Identically named objects are difficult to distinguish in the repository.

Qualitia Boson Release Notes (Build 9.0.7824)

This release introduces Experience Cloud automation, JWT-based Salesforce login, and configurable step retries. Platform locking changes improve editing, import, publishing, and multi-user workflows. The build was validated in Server & Client Upgrade mode on Windows Server across core Web and Salesforce automation flows, including end-to-end Salesforce features.

What’s New

·       Experience Cloud automation. Enable Experience Cloud while creating a Salesforce connection, then import the required Experience Cloud profiles and associated objects. Imported assets are organized under Experience Cloud, Flow, Custom Component, or Salesforce object nodes according to the page content; HTML fields appear under the respective page.

·       Experience Cloud task generation. Select an Experience Cloud profile and page or Salesforce object to generate a task. The Salesforce Management Toolkit displays the available fields, and OpenURL is added by default. Record Type and Operation are enabled for Salesforce objects and disabled for page objects containing flows, custom components, or HTML fields. Save the task, add it to a test case, and execute it.

Experience Cloud prerequisites: Enable Salesforce Digital Experiences and the ExperienceBundle Metadata API, assign the required profiles to the site, and ensure the site is active. Complete the required configuration before enabling Experience Cloud on the Qualitia connection.

·       JWT-based Salesforce login. SFDC.LoginUsingJWT authenticates through a signed JWT and retrieves an access token to establish a Salesforce session without password or OTP entry during execution. Provide the Salesforce organization baseURL, username, connected-app clientId, and PKCS#8 private key or private-key file path.

JWT prerequisites: Generate the RSA key and public certificate, configure JWT Bearer Flow, upload the certificate to the Salesforce app, configure the required OAuth scopes and admin-approved user policy, and assign the permitted profiles. Client ID and private key can be stored as encrypted environment variables; mask sensitive values when supplied directly.

·       Configurable step retry mechanism. Automatically retry execution steps with Failed or Defect status. Max Retries for Steps Failure supports 0–3 retries after the initial failure, with a default of 1. Retry Delay After Step Failure(ms) defaults to 500 ms. Profile-specific settings are available for local, shared, and offline execution profiles.

What’s Improved?

·       Execution recovery. Step retries provide a configurable way to recover from transient failures and reduce manual reruns. Set the retry count and delay for the execution profile being used; a count of 0 disables retries.

·       Experience Cloud authoring. Profile-based object selection and the page-specific Toolkit support task creation from imported portal content. The default OpenURL action provides navigation as part of the generated task.

·       Salesforce login configuration. JWT login supports either a private-key value or a PKCS#8 key-file path, with encrypted environment variables available for sensitive configuration.

·       Platform synchronization and concurrency. Centralized locking and synchronization changes improve the validated workflows across object and task editing, suite operations, import/reimport, publishing, and multiple users.

Value Addition (Key Fixes)

The platform locking release summary confirms that previously reported issues were revalidated within the documented QA scope. The following fixes improve those workflows; remaining edge cases are listed under Known Issues.

·       Lock release and revocation. Addressed locks that remained after saving, discarding, or switching artifacts, allowing users to continue editing in the validated scenarios.

·       Self-lock and stale-lock cleanup. Addressed incorrect self-locks when reopening saved artifacts and stale locks after reopening screens or restarting the application.

·       Shared-version and acquisition handling. Addressed shared-version mismatch and lock-acquisition errors encountered while switching, reopening, or editing objects.

·       Import and failed-operation cleanup. Addressed false import-lock conflicts and retained locks following failed import, reimport, publish, or synchronization operations.

·       Artifact isolation for multiple users. Addressed incorrect blocking between users working on different tasks or test cases that reference the same Salesforce object, and locking impacts on unrelated artifacts.

·       Suite editing and concurrent operations. Addressed suite self-locks after save and incorrect conflicts during concurrent Salesforce object imports within the validated workflows.

Known Issues

·       Multi-user and locking edge cases. Selected acquisition, revocation, refresh, self-lock, and concurrent-edit scenarios may still restrict or alter user operations.

·       Test case and suite editing. Selected flows retain version mismatches, save failures, action or parameter mismatches, view-mode issues, undo issues, and suite-editing defects.

·       Import and synchronization. Import failures, Change Management updates, object mappings, and synchronization interruptions may require rework or manual correction.

·       Environment and execution profiles. Environment changes or usage information may not refresh or persist correctly in specific scenarios. Recheck saved settings before execution.

·       Performance and usability. Some actions, including Salesforce object deletion, may be slower than expected. Selected dialogs and controls may require repeated action; confirm the final state.

🐞 Known Issues

🧩 Task / Test Case Generation

• Mandatory fields may occasionally lack an asterisk (*) in explorer view despite showing it in the Salesforce UI.

• Some Salesforce UI fields appear under additional fields in explorer view, needing extra steps to map them correctly.

• Default import doesn’t support LWC pages; Salesforce recorder manages import and association, occasionally needing manual intervention.

• Certain Salesforce UI fields are not imported automatically and require manual intervention.

• A few of the Salesforce UI fields such as Father’s, Mother’s the <’> appears as <&> once imported.

• Generate Automation creates duplicate steps for the same object with different actions instead of consolidating with the appropriate control type.

• In some cases when creating Salesforce tasks, Explorer view displays additional fields not present in the actual Salesforce UI; require manual validation and removal.

• In few cases when creating a Salesforce task, selecting the "Add Mandatory Fields" checkbox missed adding a few mandatory steps.

• Some address-related UI fields, like "Billing State," are incorrectly mapped in Qualitia as "Billing State/Province," leading to mismatches and execution failures.

• After importing objects for the Account object, object names differ between multi-threading ON and OFF modes (e.g., "Created By ID" vs. "Created By"); object names should remain consistent regardless of the multi-threading setting.

🔁 Change Management

• New objects without profile access or layout mapping appear as "N" in Salesforce Explorer Change.

• For a few custom weblink change management explorer view doesn’t show the change and impact.

• Even after a task is successfully updated with Change Management changes, the red dot indicator continues to appear on the Refresh icon.

• Task steps containing deleted objects are not removed even when the user selects the “Remove steps using deleted objects” checkbox in the Accept Update popup during Change Management.

🧪 Test Execution

• Execution fails when two fields with the same label but different control types (e.g., checkbox and picklist) are on the same page.

• When a test case containing API objects is executed, the report displays the Validation ID instead of the Validation Name for the Execute action.

📥 Task / Test Case Import

• Task name validation during project import is case-insensitive, allowing duplicates with different cases (e.g., TaskNameExample and tasknameexample) to coexist without warnings or conflict resolution.

• When importing an empty test case from another project, irrelevant "With Data" and "Without Data" options are shown, even though the case has no data.

• The test case/task Import tab is currently disabled for Salesforce projects due to a technical limitation.

⚡ Response Lag

• Slight delay observed when launching the browser in debug mode.

• Response lag occurs during test step recording, doesn’t happens in real time basis.

📱 Mobile Apps

• The login page of the Salesforce OneApp mobile application appears blank when accessed through MOS and MOR.

🧩 Installation and Setup

• License may fail after restart if hardware or network card changes occur; contact Support for reactivation.

👥 Concurrency Observations

• In multiuser mode, simultaneous creation of Salesforce connections with identical details results in two org entries with the same name in the Objects Repository.

• In multiuser mode, simultaneous scenario creation by two users in a new project triggers an "Error while creating scenario" message.

• In multiuser mode, if User1 creates a test case in a scenario while User2 deletes it, the case appears added but disappears after workspace refresh.

• In multiuser mode, If one user maps a new environment set to a test case and another deletes it before saving, executing the test case triggers a generic export error.

⚙️ Others

• The Salesforce Navigate to Tab action fails during execution, preventing successful navigation to the specified Salesforce tab.

• In Task Editor, the scroll bar resets to the top after adding fields, requiring users to scroll down to check the newly added field; it should stay at the new field’s position.

• Shortcut keys do not work immediately after the suite is loaded. Users need to click on the suite grid first to activate and use the shortcut keys.

• When launching the recorder without establishing a port connection, the session times out after 120 seconds. Even though a new recording session can be started from the test case view, the previous browser instance remains open, causing Qualitia to fail to launch the recorder and time out again.

• While recording a script, if a user clicks on the field and selects a value from an auto-suggestion list, the field is not captured in the script.

• On the Salesforce Field Details screen, the More Options dropdown appears for every section regardless of applicability, and previously opened dropdowns do not close when switching sections, causing multiple dropdowns to stay open at once.
