Progress announced the latest release of the intuitive, easy-to-use, Telerik Test Studio automated testing solution. As part of today's release, Telerik, a Progress company, has added IntelliMap, a revolutionary advancement in test automation. This new functionality introduces a new way for testers to work in parallel with developers and avoid delays during quality assurance (QA).
Test Studio solution enables users to record flexible tests for playback and write as much or as little code as needed, to build highly maintainable test suites. With this new release, users will be able to define and build tests ahead of time, without ever firing up the recorder.
New features available in this release of Telerik Test Studio solution include:
- Element Builder and Step Builder: Prior to this release, the Step Builder enabled developers to craft certain types of steps using existing elements added by the powerful Telerik Test Studio recorder. Now developers can use the new Step Builder to craft any type of step-the options are limitless. Combined with the new Element Builder, Step Builder enables fully scaffolded tests to be created before the UI is delivered.
- Early Test Collaboration with Intellimap: "Intellimap" is an intelligent mapper that enables testing teams to develop tests in parallel with development, while minimizing dependency on the UI. It hooks into the web browser and provides an easy-to-use, visual experience to quickly add find logic to "shell" elements.
"Traditional delivery models often have testing as a late-occurring activity performed after development is complete. This gap increases delivery friction, because bugs are found later in the cycle. These kind of disconnects carry over from one iteration to the next," said Aaron Mahimainathan, SVP, DevTools and Telerik Platform, Progress. "With this release, we are enabling teams to collaborate early and run tests as systems are in development, then move the tests into the regular build/test/push workflow, as needed."

A new study by the IBM Institute for Business Value reveals that enterprises are expected to significantly scale AI-enabled workflows, many driven by agentic AI, relying on them for improved decision making and automation. The AI Projects to Profits study revealed that respondents expect AI-enabled workflows to grow from 3% today to 25% by the end of 2025. With 70% of surveyed executives indicating that agentic AI is important to their organization's future, the research suggests that many organizations are actively encouraging experimentation ...
Respondents predict that agentic AI will play an increasingly prominent role in their interactions with technology vendors over the coming years and are positive about the benefits it will bring, according to The Race to an Agentic Future: How Agentic AI Will Transform Customer Experience, a report from Cisco ...
A new wave of tariffs, some exceeding 100%, is sending shockwaves across the technology industry. Enterprises are grappling with sudden, dramatic cost increases that threaten to disrupt carefully planned budgets, sourcing strategies, and deployment plans. For CIOs and CTOs, this isn't just an economic setback; it's a wake-up call. The era of predictable cloud pricing and stable global supply chains is over ...
As artificial intelligence (AI) adoption gains momentum, network readiness is emerging as a critical success factor. AI workloads generate unpredictable bursts of traffic, demanding high-speed connectivity that is low latency and lossless. AI adoption will require upgrades and optimizations in data center networks and wide-area networks (WANs). This is prompting enterprise IT teams to rethink, re-architect, and upgrade their data center and WANs to support AI-driven operations ...
Artificial intelligence (AI) is core to observability practices, with some 41% of respondents reporting AI adoption as a core driver of observability, according to the State of Observability for Financial Services and Insurance report from New Relic ...
Application performance monitoring (APM) is a game of catching up — building dashboards, setting thresholds, tuning alerts, and manually correlating metrics to root causes. In the early days, this straightforward model worked as applications were simpler, stacks more predictable, and telemetry was manageable. Today, the landscape has shifted, and more assertive tools are needed ...
Cloud adoption has accelerated, but backup strategies haven't always kept pace. Many organizations continue to rely on backup strategies that were either lifted directly from on-prem environments or use cloud-native tools in limited, DR-focused ways ... Eon uncovered a handful of critical gaps regarding how organizations approach cloud backup. To capture these prevailing winds, we gathered insights from 150+ IT and cloud leaders at the recent Google Cloud Next conference, which we've compiled into the 2025 State of Cloud Data Backup ...
Private clouds are no longer playing catch-up, and public clouds are no longer the default as organizations recalibrate their cloud strategies, according to the Private Cloud Outlook 2025 report from Broadcom. More than half (53%) of survey respondents say private cloud is their top priority for deploying new workloads over the next three years, while 69% are considering workload repatriation from public to private cloud, with one-third having already done so ...
