Organize filters and reports using tags

Administrators can now create tags for grouping related filters or reports, such as those for a specific product or release. If your team has a large number of filters or reports, use tags to organize them and help team members find them more easily in various areas of ALM.

Tags have a unique name, optional description, text color, background color, and icon to help users identify them at a glance.

To easily add or remove tags to a group of selected filters or reports, you can bulk change tags to apply the changes at once.

Add filters or reports as favorites for quick access

Add specific filters or reports as favorites to find them more easily. If you no longer want a filter or report to be a favorite, you can remove it from your favorites.

Use new filtering options to find relevant items in the Filters and Reports lists

New filtering options in the Display Options pane make it easier for users to find relevant items in the Filters and Reports lists. Limit the displayed filters or reports based on the allowed access, whether they are favorites, or by selected tags.

View and manage filters using the Filters list in the web client

You can now view all filters in a project in the Filters list in the web client. To access filters, click Filters in the navigation bar.

From the Filters list, you can perform the following actions on filters: view, add, edit, duplicate, add favorites, remove favorites, bulk change tags, export to Microsoft Excel, and export to text.

Improved requirement document Specification Document window (desktop client)

The requirement document Specification Document window has many usability and performance improvements, and is now more consistent with the web client experience:

• View and edit requirement review workflow events in a document without switching to Review Mode, which no longer exists. You can hide review events in the Show notes list.
• Select requirement text without editing the requirement.
• Click an inline image to open a preview.
• Press and hold CTRL and rotate the mouse wheel button to zoom in and out on the requirement details pane.
• Multi-line text field width is no longer fixed and spans the width of the single-line columns or page, depending on which is larger.
• Inline images that are too wide are scaled down instead of cut off.

Add test cases to folders from the Automation Suites list (web client)

You can now add test cases to folders when editing and viewing automation suites and automation builds.

Include file attachment names in matrix reports (desktop and web clients)

• Inline images are now cached so they do not require downloading when viewing again.
• The Qt framework that the Perforce ALM desktop client uses no longer uses WebKit and adopted WebEngine, which is Chromium browser technology. The new rendering engine is better tuned for multi-processing, uses a smaller memory footprint, and has a larger development community, providing improved support for HTML5 and security-related updates.

Configure Field Layouts to Organize Fields in Groups

Perforce ALM administrators and other high-level users can now configure field layouts to organize fields in groups to improve the user experience in Add, Edit, and View Item windows/pages.

Watch this brief demo to see how easy it is to configure field layouts to help teams quickly access the information most important to them:

Each item type has a default layout you can use, or you can configure different layouts for specific security groups and requirement types.

To help users understand the purpose of a group of fields, you can provide a description of a group in a tooltip. To identify any problems with a field layout, such as missing required fields or fields included in the layout that are hidden by field security, you can evaluate the layout to generate a report to help with troubleshooting.

When upgrading the Perforce ALM desktop client from an earlier version, fields that were previously displayed in the main area are now in the General group and custom fields are now in the Custom Fields group.

To learn more, see Configuring field layouts.
