The verification workload model has been enhanced and now features multiple user types with more than one virtual user for each user type. Additionally, you can now set how many times the virtual users have to execute their defined transactions before they stop automatically.
In Silk Performer 19.5 you can attach additional files to a project. The project tree now displays a new node named Other Items. Any supplemental documents and files you add to the project display under this node. If you export the project, these files are copied as well, similarly to the assets of the other nodes.
When using the Silk Central integration, you can now use a web-service token as an alternative to the conventional authentication mode with user name and password. The token-based authentication provides a number of advantages. For example, no user credentials have to be transferred during the authentication process and the token is decoupled from LDAP-bound credentials. You can generate the web-service token in the user settings section of Silk Central. To use token-based authentication both Silk Performer 19.5 (or newer) and Silk Central 19.5 (or newer) are required.
The remote agent installer now allows you to configure the working folder of an agent. This is useful for agents with limited permissions on the default public documents location.
In addition to AWS and Azure, Silk Performer now also supports cloud instances hosted in the Google Cloud.
