Smarter Testing, Less Overhead: Granular Test Control in Eggplant DAI 25.2
With the release of Eggplant DAI 25.2, Keysight continues to push the boundaries of intelligent test automation. The marquee feature in this release, granular control and exclusion of tests, gives QA teams unprecedented precision and flexibility in managing their test configurations.
Whether you're running large-scale regression suites or validating quick smoke tests, this feature helps you test more efficiently, reuse assets intelligently, and reduce overhead.
What’s New in DAI 25.2?
The new tagging and filtering capabilities within test configurations allow you to easily select subsets of tests to run, without creating new configurations or duplicating assets. Here’s how this feature delivers value:
Tagging and Filtering for Targeted Execution
You can now apply custom tags to tests and filter them at execution time. This enables:
- Quick execution of smoke tests for build validation.
- Running regression packs without affecting other tests.
- Targeted testing for locale-specific scenarios.
- Re-running only failed or error-prone tests from previous executions.
This level of control turns a once-manual process into a streamlined, scalable strategy.
Greater Reuse of Test Configurations
Rather than managing multiple configurations for different test scenarios, teams can now use a single configuration with filtered subsets. This dramatically increases the reusability of configuration assets, reduces duplication, and simplifies test suite maintenance.
Reduced Test Management Overhead
By consolidating test configurations and enabling smarter selection, teams reduce the time spent on:
- Test planning and setup.
- Managing separate test configurations.
- Manual test selection.
This translates into faster execution cycles, less risk of errors, and greater agility in responding to change.
One Test Configuration, Many Use Cases
From validating hotfixes to running full-scale regression suites, DAI 25.2’s granular control ensures that your testing strategy stays lean, modular, and adaptable. You can now structure test execution around business priorities, quality goals, or risk levels, without compromising flexibility.
Designed for Scalable Test Automation
This feature is a key step toward the consolidation of test assets—an essential need in complex environments like PLM, CAD, and enterprise systems. By organizing tests into logical, reusable sets, DAI 25.2 empowers teams to maintain high quality while managing fewer moving parts.
Get Granular. Get Ahead.
Eggplant DAI 25.2 brings clarity and control to test execution. By enabling teams to tag, filter, and run exactly what they need, it simplifies test automation while delivering enterprise-level efficiency.
