Features Added to ReadyAPI 3.49.0
Important Notice for ReadyAPI Customers
Starting from ReadyAPI 3.62.0, VirtServer 3.29.0, and TestEngine 1.34.0, SmartBear Product Family has fully deprecated file-based licenses and transitioned to the ID-based SmartBear License Management (SLM) system. Any customers still using file-based licenses must complete their migration to SLM by September 30, 2025.
From October 1, 2025, existing and activated file-based licenses will continue to work for some time. However, SmartBear will no longer generate new file-based licenses or support activation and deactivation of file-based licenses in ReadyAPI, VirtServer, or TestEngine. All new and updated licenses are now issued in SLM only.
All technical support for file-based licenses has now ceased, and SmartBear no longer maintains the file-based licensing system. Any access or service issues will result in service disruptions that we will not be able to restore.
If you have not completed the process of migrating, contact your Account Manager or SmartBear representative today. Our teams are ready to assist with smooth transition strategies. For additional support, log a request with our SmartBear Support, who are standing by to help.
For further information and timelines, refer to the File-Based License End-of-Life Policy page.
ReadyAPI 3.49.0 includes a few changes compared to the previous product version – ReadyAPI 3.48.0. For information on the changes made to other versions, see Version History.
Note
SmartBear License Management's license authentication and request flows were revised in November 2023. Authentication using the username and password is no longer supported for test execution via TestRunners, Jenkins or Azure plugins, and SmartBear-hosted licenses. Username and password are limited to on-prem-hosted licenses only. Access Key is the required option for authentication if using SmartBear-hosted licenses headlessly.
GraphQL API from Introspection Query
We implemented the capability to import GraphQL APIs from Introspection Query.
Improvements
In ReadyAPI, transaction logs can be downloaded from REST, SOAP, TCP, JDBC, and JMS virtual services hosted in VirtServer.
Enhanced privacy by concealing sensitive information under
sun.java.command.
General Updates
We have fixed a few blocker vulnerabilities javasecurity:S6096 reported by Sonarqube
We updated the Postman Plugin to 3.0.0.
ReadyAPI 3.49.0 includes newer versions of some libraries that version 3.48.0 used. If your scripts refer to classes from these libraries, you might need to update the scripts.
