Additional Notes

Minor incompatibility for Selenium tests

GINT no longer will default Selenium tests to force maxParallel = 1 which prevents concurrent access to the browser. Tests must now explicitly set this concurrency level if needed. This is to support use cases where concurrency is possible provided there are other control mechanism used. For instance, Confluence Connect macro tests can use maxParallel values larger than 1.

Selenium tests needing concurrency control should do something like:

gint.initialize(seleniumHelper.getTestName(this))
gint.setMaxParallel(1) // prevent concurrent access to browser

Minor incompatibility for Confluence macro testing

GINT will now default macroPageBegin/End to blank. This makes it easier for Cloud testing and avoids need for Navigation add-on and it's scrollbar macro. See
