Test grouping/folder feature (2-x layers) which have also the select/deselect "all tests below" function to get a better overview in complex test scenarios.

Adding extra logic into the test cases depending on the value of a variable.

It should be possible to host Validator as a shared, central web-service,

but this requires a proper user athentication and authorisation, e.g. via LDAP or SAML.

Make it possible to lock each group of actions from dragging to change order. I find it's very easy to accidentally change the order of actions. It would be nice to have the option to lock them in place.

Replay test(s) n number of times

This will prompt a user to add a value and then store it in a variable so it can be used later in the text.

It should be possible to set the association status of an associated object to test migration and sync events. Validating a status is already possible by checking “DirXML-Associations contain ‘Driver-DN#Assoc-Status#’”, migrating not associated objects by “Add DirXML-Associations ‘Driver-DN#4#’, but it’s not possible to change the status of an associated objects. Maybe, implementing Regexp + a replace feature could provide ...more »

In addition to the User App start workflow action, it would be great to have actions to add and remove resources. Sometimes in testing I need to directly assign or revoke a resource, without the need to start a custom workflow.

This idea came up in some discussions at Brainshare.

The concept would be to be able to import ECMA scripts from drivers and then have those functions available in an Action for a validator test. So you could pass in variables to an ECMA/javascript script, get the result and assign it to another variable.

Additionally, we could just allow a javascript action so javascript could be included in any test.

We have a case, where we have Sendmail objects that have an attribute, serialNumber, we can query on via LDAP. This would return a list of 1-N objects back. I do not think we can do multivalued local variables, nor loop over them, but we need to 1) Ensure they are all deleted. 2) Ensure that at least 1 or more are created. This seems like a new assertion of LDAP Filter returns, with sub options of: 0-n values ...more »

This would allow us to test workflow GUIs and any other GUIs inside a browser.

Variable indirection allow another level of abstraction in using variables to modularize tests. A simple example is to have a group of similarly name variables and the use of another variable to control the actual test values used. Example: $StudentCN1="jstudent" $StudentCX1="ou=students,o=school" $StaffCN1="rstaff" $StaffCX1="ou=staff,o=school" You could define the test user, for one test pass by setting $Utype equal ...more »
