Compare rule versions in a rule form

Valid from Pega Version 7.2.2

You can now compare different versions of rules from the Actions menu when you work within a rule form instead of using the Rule Compare utility. You can inspect changes that were made between versions directly on the rule form, make updates, and save any changes to the rule form.

For more information, see Rule version comparison within a rule form.

View all nodes in a cluster from the Cluster Management landing page

Valid from Pega Version 7.2.2

Use the Cluster Management page to view information for all of the available nodes in a cluster. To view the nodes, click Designer Studio > System > Operations > Cluster Management. To access detailed information about a single node, click Actions.

For more information, see System Operations.

Logic-based assignment routing

Valid from Pega Version 7.2.2

You can now define business logic that controls when and by whom an assignment is processed in a case. By routing assignments to a specific user or group of users, you can help ensure that cases are resolved faster.

For more information, see Logic-based assignment routing.

Support for additional rule types for PegaUnit test cases

Valid from Pega Version 7.2.2

To compare the expected results with the results that are returned by running a rule, you can now create PegaUnit test cases for the following rule types:

  • Activities
  • Data transforms
  • Strategies
  • Decision trees
  • Decision tables

After you unit test these rules, you can convert them to test cases and configure assertions on the test cases. You can also set up the clipboard with data before tests are run, and clean up the clipboard after tests are run.

For more information, see PegaUnit testing.

Page assertions are supported for PegaUnit test cases

Valid from Pega Version 7.2.2

You can now create page assertions for PegaUnit test cases. Because data transforms and activities can create or remove pages, you can configure page assertions to determine whether a page exists after you run PegaUnit test cases.

For more information, see Configuring page assertions.

New Automated Testing landing page

Valid from Pega Version 7.2.2

The new Automated Testing landing page displays all the PegaUnit test cases in your application. You can use it to quickly access, run, and view results of tests. In addition, if you have the AutomatedTesting privilege enabled, you can switch to the Automated Unit Testing landing page to access rules that are supported by both PegaUnit testing and Automated Unit Testing, such as activities.

For more information, refer to Automated Testing landing page.

Enhancement for specifying filter conditions in reports

Valid from Pega Version 7.2.2

You now have the option to select comparison values from a list of available values when you add or edit the filter conditions for a report in Pega Express. This option is available for all columns, except for numeric or text columns when the comparator setting is Greater than, Greater than or equal, Less than, or Less than or equal.

For more information, see Adding filter conditions.

Define hotfixes as dependencies for product rules

Valid from Pega Version 7.2.2

When you package an application or product rule for export, you can specify a list of required hotfixes. Those dependencies are validated when you import. The import operation proceeds only if all required hotfixes are installed on the target system. For more information, see Packaging an application.

Export branches from the command line

Valid from Pega Version 7.2.2

Use the prpcServiceUtils command-line tool to export branches to an archive. You can later import the branch archive to another system.

For more information, see Exporting products, applications, or branches from the command line.

Update access groups from the command line

Valid from Pega Version 7.2.2

Remotely update access groups by using the prpcServiceUtils tool. This feature is useful in automated deployment scenarios when you want to provide access to a new application version.

For more information, see Updating access groups from the command line.
