Version number adaptations

You can now create versions of Projects that use major, minor and micro numbers as well as qualifiers as their version number. Version numbers can consist of just a number, just a qualifier, or a number and a qualififier, e.g. 1.0_release, 1.0, 1.0.0, 1.0.0_release, version3

Addition of description view

You can now enter descriptions for nodes (Test Cases, Test Suites, Test Jobs) in your tests. The descriptions are entered using a markup language, that you can select in the Project Properties. Once you have entered descriptions, you can see them via the Description View when you select a node with a description.

New option for reporting to ALM systems: update fields

You can now specify in the Project properties that you want to update fields on tasks in ALM repositories after a test has run. This allows you to automatically change e.g. the status of tasks based on test results. There is a property inspector to let you see what properties a specific task has.

Updates to the JavaFX toolkit

We have continued to add support for new areas of JavaFX testing. We have also fixed issues occurring in JavaFX tests.
