We are pleased to announce the release of Klaros-Testmanagement version 4.3.11.

Version 4.3.11 is a maintenance release that fixes a bug preventing the execution of manual test suites and contains various minor improvements.

The 4.3.x release of Klaros-Testmanagement includes more than 15 new features and over 115 improvements and bug fixes over 4.2.x. Some of the changes are:

• Renaming of uploaded attachments is now possible.

TestComplete 9+ is now part of our ever growing list of importable test result file formats.

• During test execution it is now possible to create review jobs and to assign them to the creator of the executed test artifact.

• In order to prevent concurrent editing of test results, a warning message is now displayed whenever a user tries to continue a test run that is currently being executed by another user.

• Administrators can now restore configured issue management systems which have previously been deleted.

• If a test case gets automatically skipped during test execution because it is set to "Skip", an explanation is noted in the pertaining test result.

• The number of test case results, test suite results and test runs are now shown in the results tab of each object.

• Detailed descriptions of the test environment and system under test are shown upon test execution launch.

• When reopening a job, the progress rate and success rate of this job and its sub jobs are reset to 0%.

• Oracle 12 is now in our list of supported database systems.

• Upon test execution launch you can now look at attachments that are attached to test cases, test suites, test environments and systems under test.

• The new overview pages show pre-configured reports and statistics in order to see the current test progress at a glance.

• We've added a new job type "Review", which allows you to schedule reviews of test cases or test suites and specify arbitrary tasks in a textual form.

• The new "guest" role adds an additional layer of security to your test data. Guests can only have a look at test definitions and results, but are not allowed to edit them in any way.

• Our improved issue integration eases the linking of issues to your favorite issue management system. Once issues are linked to Klaros-Testmanagement, a background synchronization service keeps track of any changes and transfers them to Klaros-Testmanagement.

• In addition to the above, you can now add detailed information about issues to your custom reports.
  Klaros-Testmanagement now officially supports Bugzilla 4.5 and Redmine 3.0!
  CUnit, xUnit.net and ctest (CMake) result files have been added to our growing list of supported test result formats

• Jobs can now also be enriched with attachments and custom fields. Also, the management of comments and the work log has been streamlined.

• Klaros-Testmanagement now supports the synchronization of requirements from external systems, so there is no need to manually adapt them anymore.

• In addition to the existing E-Mail notifications you can now configure the notification schemes and define what event causes them to be sent out.

• An updated version of the Jenkins-plugin is now available.

• User defined fields now support multi-line text areas.

• Test cases and test suites now link to all executed jobs which covered them.

• The distributed Tomcat application server has been updated to version 8.0 to benefit from the latest improvements.
