The wait is over! Twist 2.0, a major upgrade to Twist, our testing automation solution, will be available for download on March 31st, 2010.

The list of features included in this release includes:

• Hybrid Execution: Execute manual and automated test steps within the same scenario. With Twist 2.0, you can choose whether to use manual or automated testing, based on your requirements and preferences.
• Support for Groovy Scripting: In addition to Java, Twist 2.0 allows you to implement test intents using Groovy.
• Additional Driver support - Sahi, SWTBot:  Twist 2.0 has added Sahi as an additional option for web testing. The main benefit of Sahi is that it abstracts out most difficulties that testers face while automating web applications. Its features include an excellent recorder, platform and browser independence, no XPaths and no waits. In addition, it allows you to identify UI components within the application as you record test scenarios. Support for SWTBot makes Twist 2.0 suitable for testing Eclipse-based applications.
• Table Driven Scenarios: Twist 2.0 allows you to run your test scenarios with multiple sets of data by associating a data table with your test scenario.
• Enhanced Test Abstraction: Twist 2.0 now allows business users to achieve more sophisticated levels of abstraction on their test intent.
