TestCentric.Engine 2.0.0-beta1

As part of this release we had 11 issues closed.

This is the first beta release of the TestCentric engine.

The major change from the alpha8 release is that all built-in agents have now been removed from the engine itself. This completes our pivot to using pluggable agent extensions for all tests. At this point, the engine alone is no longer capable of running any tests. It's up to the runner making use of the agent to ensure that at least one agent extension is installed. To put it another way: the runner decides what kinds of tests it is capable of running and in what environments, not the engine.

Note: The upcoming beta release of the GUI will include agents for .NET Framework 4.6.2, .NET 6.0 and .NET 7.0. The following additional agents are currently available for user installation: .NET 8.0, .NET 5.0, .NET Core 3.1, .NET Core 2.1, .NET Framework 2.0.

This release was built using the first production release of our TestCentric.Cake.Recipe package.
