Test Manager release notes

September 2026 release notes for Test Manager in Automation Cloud Dedicated and Test Cloud Dedicated.

September 17, 2026

Clipboard data available as an MCP tool argument on test steps

The Test Manager Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools for adding and updating test steps (Bulk add test steps, Bulk update test steps) accept an optional Clipboard data argument, matching the field already available in the Test Manager UI.

This lets you set or update a step's Clipboard data programmatically — for example, when generating test cases with variable input through Autopilot Chat or Delegate — without falling back to UI automation. Existing callers that omit the argument are unaffected.

For more information, refer to the Manual test cases section of the documentation.

Requirements page redesign

The requirement details page is redesigned with the following changes:

  • The toolbar exposes Evaluate Requirement and Assign test case (grouping Create new test case, Assign existing test case, Generate test cases, and Find obsolete tests) as direct actions, alongside Optimize coverage, which is kept as a duplicate entry point with no retirement date currently set.
  • The description field uses a rich-text editor instead of Markdown syntax, and shows No description added when empty.
  • Labels, custom fields, attachments, and audit metadata (Created by / Updated by) are reorganized into the requirement overview.

The overview uses a responsive layout that stacks secondary content below the main area at narrower widths.

Assigned test cases gain Grid view and List view options. List view uses virtual scrolling, loading test cases in batches of 500, and shows compact last-result indicators (Passed, Failed, No result). You can filter assigned test cases, including by last result, and select one or more to Unassign or Delete them in bulk. Test cases still cannot be executed directly from a requirement.

For more information, refer to the Requirements section of the documentation.

Easier to read and copy full log messages in test executions

Long or truncated robot log messages in the Logs tab of a test execution were hard to read in full, and could not be copied.

The Logs tab has an Info column: select the info icon on any log row to open its full message in a pop-up, with a Copy message button.

The Logs tab also gains message search and sorting on the Level column, plus a Level filter to show only the log levels you care about:

  • Trace (All)
  • Info + Warn + Error + Fatal
  • Warn + Error + Fatal
  • Error + Fatal
  • Fatal

For more information, refer to the Analyzing test results section of the documentation.

Bug fixes

  • Fixed ObjectLabels bulk add/remove requests with an invalid or unsupported objectType (combined with an empty or over-the-limit list of object IDs) returning a 500 error instead of 400 Bad Request with a validation message. (TMHUB-32720)
  • Fixed ObjectFilters create/assign requests with a malformed filterExpression (wrong JSON type, or null) returning a 500 error instead of 400 Bad Request with a validation message. (TMHUB-32720)
  • Fixed malformed request bodies with incorrectly typed fields (for example, a search value sent as an array instead of a string) returning a 500 error instead of 400 Bad Request, across Test Manager API endpoints. (TMHUB-32720)

Test case description in manual execution

The manual execution assistant shows the test case description in a collapsible panel above Precondition, so testers have the full context without leaving the execution window. For details, see Executing manual tests.

Asynchronous Excel export with per-custom-field columns

Exporting requirements and test cases to Excel is asynchronous. You are notified when the file is ready instead of waiting on the request. Both exports also gain one column per custom field definition, instead of a single column concatenating all values, and test case exports let you collapse step rows to keep large exports scannable. For details, see Export data.

Test Manager consistently shows whether a test case already has an automation linked everywhere you view test cases, not only from within a test set. For details, see Selecting automation.

Bug fixes

Exports

  • Fixed multi-log PDF and ZIP exports occasionally producing corrupted or incomplete archives.
  • Fixed test case export headers occasionally showing in the wrong language when multiple users exported from the same session in different locales.
  • Fixed download links inside exported Excel and PDF files, such as assertion screenshots and import summaries, returning an error instead of downloading.

Test cases and requirements

  • Fixed the object filter API returning a 500 error instead of a 400 for empty filter values, a missing data view, or invalid paging parameters.
  • Fixed automation-link data not being populated for test cases that were re-run manually after an automated execution.
  • Fixed moving a test result to In Review while evidence from a linked Orchestrator job was still syncing, which could show an incomplete result; the action waits for sync to finish.
  • Fixed the data retention banner appearing on Automation Suite projects; it is shown only on Automation Cloud, where it applies.
  • Fixed the Requirements card view showing stale test case data after switching between requirement cards.

Migrations

  • Fixed a test automation data migration that could leave orphaned records behind if it failed partway through; failed migrations roll back completely.
  • Fixed an error when migrating test sets if your selection spanned more than one folder; the selection clears automatically when you switch folders.

Integrations and accessibility

  • Fixed the SAP connection dialog showing a generic error instead of the actual connection failure reason, for example a certificate or authentication error.
  • Fixed clipboardData being silently discarded when set through bulk test step operations over the API, Model Context Protocol (MCP), or Command Line Interface (CLI); the value is saved correctly.
  • Fixed three accessibility issues across shared and test management UI components: labeling, focus handling, and keyboard interactions.

Breaking changes

  • Removed the iText PDF library dependency — reading PDF attachments in the cloud is text-only, and image extraction from PDF attachments is no longer supported. PDF export is unaffected.
