Introducing Wallaby v2 -
A New Era of Testing

Hello,

We're excited to officially introduce Wallaby v2, a massive update designed to revolutionize your testing workflow. With Wallaby v2, we've reimagined the entire user experience to make testing even faster, more powerful, and easier to use across all editors.

In this newsletter, we'll also cover what we're working on next.

What's new in Wallaby v2?

  • New UI and improved ergonomics: All panels and views have been redesigned for a cleaner, more efficient experience.
  • Side Panel: A fully integrated UX that replaces the Wallaby App Test and Coverage explorer, with much more functionality.
  • Linked Mode: Use the new Wallaby UI in a separate browser window, connected to your editor.
  • Standalone Mode: Use Wallaby with any editor without an extension, including Neovim, Vim, Zed, Fleet, Emacs, and more.
  • Interactive Time Travel Debugger: Now includes an interactive timeline and persistent watch expressions to make debugging faster and more insightful.
  • Advanced test execution progress monitoring: Get real-time, high-fidelity progress updates and time estimates for your tests.

Wallaby v2's new unified overview allows you to view errors, logs, and coverage in one place, with quick navigation to failing tests and real-time updates as you code.

The Side View is dedicated to strategic operations, offering a real-time overview of all tests, coverage, logs, status, and more.

Wallaby's Interactive Time Travel Debugger now features a purpose-built timeline, designed to help you easily navigate through every step of your test execution and quickly uncover the root cause of issues.

Wallaby v2 is available now for all active license holders, for all editors (including Neovim, Vim, Zed, Fleet, Emacs, and more). If you haven't tried Wallaby yet, or if your license has expired, there's never been a better time - explore these new features and let us know what you think!

What's Next?

We know that customer feedback is crucial to making Wallaby the best tool it can be, so as you explore the new UI, we're anticipating feature requests and feedback. As always, our team is ready to respond to your needs and continue refining the experience.

Alongside the Wallaby v2 improvements, we're also bringing a similar updated user experience to Quokka.js, using the powerful technology behind Wallaby v2 to deliver a more consistent and responsive workflow. See an early preview below.

When running your tests, Wallaby has access to a wealth of valuable data and insights beyond what it currently shares. This new UI development approach paves the way for the features and improvements we've long envisioned. We are excited to bring these enhancements to you in upcoming releases. Follow us on X (Twitter) for the latest updates.

Additionally, we're been revamping Wallaby's documentation, making it easier than ever to find the information you need, with a cleaner, more streamlined design; we'll be doing the same for Quokka.js in the near future.

Finally, we're looking into ways to apply the innovations from Wallaby and Quokka to expand Console Ninja, so that even more developers can take advantage of its powerful logging capabilities.
