It’s the summer, our team is taking a few days to relax, take some rest and come back later full of energy to deliver new features. During this batch, we mainly focus on improvements, documentation updates and a lot of non-visible work (test automations, technical updates, security checks, etc.). Here are the main achievements.

 

New features

Transformation Center

  • Split large amount of inputs between multiple runs. Large legacy applications can take some time to be modernized by velocity. Splitting them will launch multiple parallel runs.
  • Relaunch runs if they are failed or blocked in progress for a long time. It will relaunch the run from scratch, deleting all the previous outputs.
  • Order metadata sections in configuration section. The chosen order is applied while generating the metadata file.

Capture & Replay

  • Added a new “Connection Type” option before connecting with 2 choices : “Telnet” & “Telnet/SSL”

Codebase

  • In the project creation form, you can now specify the encoding of the source code files (same for Catch-up)
