Changelog 21.11.01

Hello, here is a summary of what we shipped in October.

Updated Team Page

We tried to simplify our user interface by merging the page with the list of your teams together with the page that provides details about them. You can toggle between your teams or create a new team from the bottom left corner.

Colored Metadata Tags

Touca web app reports various information about each Suite, Version, and TestCase, in every row of their corresponding lists. We refer to these metadata as "Tags" and show them beside each other in the user interface. We added distinctly colored icons to these tags to make it easier to visually track changes in a given type of tag.

Touca Plugin for Django

Django is a well-known Python web framework with an opinionated design. They use their own test framework for writing unit-tests and integration tests. We developed a plugin exclusively for Django that enables easy integration of Touca with their test framework and provides an intuitive developer experience to Django developers who like to leverage Touca.

Better Email Templates

We improved the layout and content of all emails sent by the Touca server to make them consistent, easy to read, and useful.
