A true C language debugger has been added.

access script items and perform script related operations

(e.g. comparison).

New capabilities to search and replace in log and snapshots.

New correlation studio

The new correlation studio hosts all correlation functionality in

oneplace:record-basedcorrelations,replay-basedcorrelations,

correlation rules and correlation from snapshot. Correlations

can now be found based on server responses during recording,

Studio interface and new APIs makes scripting easier, faster and

more intuitive.

Data format extension (DFE) f or Google Web Toolkit (GWT)The DFE feature is designed to simplify scripting of applications

into a more readable format, the scri pt can be easily correlated

and parameterized. GWT DFE is the latest addition to the already

Increasing fexibility with new protocols

Mobile protocols

New protocols have been added to enable developing scripts for

mobile applications. The Web (HTTP/HTML) protocol is used for

NativeapplicationsandHPAjaxTruClientisusedforbrowser-

based mobile applications.

HP Ajax TruClient for Internet Explorer (IE 9)

ThisnewadditiontotheAjaxTruClientfamilyexpandssupportto

InternetExplorer(IE)basedapplications.Applicationsthatwork

in IE standard mode can be quickly scripted utilizing the same

TruClienttechnologythathasrevolutionizedscriptingforFirefox

Web applications.

Enhancements on HP TruClient for Firefox

ThemodernAjaxTruClientFirefoxprotocolwasmovedtoFirefox

8 providing better performance. It now supports HTML5 and

allows and allows for easy code reuse and sharing when creating

functions. It has also added Think Time recording, global

event handlers to support asynchronous behavior, API for URL

lteringblackandwhitelist,APIforsettingHTTPheadersand

allows for automatic transactions per step.

Web Protocol Asynchronous Support

Support for asynchronous behavior has been added to Web

(HTTP/HTML)VUserscripts,andWeb-basedfunctionsinsideFlex,

Silverlight, and Web Services VUser scripts. This new capability

enables recording of Poll, Long Poll and Push interactions required

for advanced Web applications that contain various asynchronous

communication designed to keep the information current and up

to date. These unique communication patterns are recognized

automatically and the recorded script is updated accordingly.

Web Services enhancements:

The Web Services protocol includes new features for bettersecurity support, improved handling of WCF (Windows

Communication Foundation). The Web Services protocol includes

the following enhancements: Improved UI for security settings

includingaddressingversions,easiercerticateselection,exible
