      <description>This fresh case study explores different types of server-side architectectures which introduced challenges for E2E testers due to asynchronism. Each case originates from a different client and different technical context, yet we&amp;rsquo;ve been able to adress the corresponding issues with a unified approach. This means among other things that, as step&amp;rsquo;s async services evolve, each client will benefit from upgrades and additional functionality.

      <title>New Case Study: Android in the cloud</title>

      <description>Throughout this case study, we&#39;ve layed out a foundation for Android automation. In fact, the toolkit is so powerful that we were able to give the keys to our client so that they could operate the emulator farm themselves. This case study also covers the challenges of having to test new authentication mechanisms, in particular mobile authentication relying on Push notifications (Firebase).

      <title>New White Paper: the TCO of browser automation</title>

      <description>We&amp;rsquo;ve just published a new white paper covering the pitfalls of legacy HTTP solutions in the world of testing and addressing the need for information on newer alternatives in the open-source scene such as Selenium or Pupeteer. We&amp;rsquo;ll also see how easy and cheap it is to scale the execution of tests using these new libraries on top of step&amp;rsquo;s agent grid, and in particular, in the cloud.

      <title>step R3.10 is out</title>
      <link>https://step.dev/knowledgebase/30/whatsnew/news/step-release-3.10/</link>

      <description>We&amp;rsquo;re happy to announce the release of R3.10. With the addition of a brand new Resource Manager, step is now completely cloud-ready. Although step has been running on docker for a long time, one of our goals for 2019 was to limit the need for accessing resources directly through the file system of the controller&amp;rsquo;s host. This is now done and there are now very few cases if any at all anymore which will require you to log onto any of step&amp;rsquo;s hosts, whether it be the controller or agents.</description>

      <description>As promised in our roadmap for 2019, we&amp;rsquo;ve built and release a brand new website dedicated to hosting documentation contents and various resources for on-boarding both technical and non-technical users interested in step. We&amp;rsquo;ve taken the opportunity to perform a massive overhaul of both the structure, the looks and the content of our documentation pages. We hope you&amp;rsquo;ll benefit from it and find the new site useful.
Other than the traditional documentation pages, you&amp;rsquo;ll also find hands-on tutorials, case studies and white papers.</description>
