Roadmap

This document outlines accomplished milestones, active capabilities, and upcoming feature developments for Parikshan.

Accomplished Milestones

  • Multi-Target End-to-End Execution: End-to-End UI test automation implemented and verified across all target platforms: Desktop (JVM), Web (WasmJs), Android, and iOS Simulator.
  • Window Sizing & Layout Control (0.0.8): Dynamic runtime resizing and positioning of Desktop JVM and Web (WasmJs) application windows (--layout=side-by-side, --window-size=<w>x<h>, --app-mode).
  • Synchronized Multi-Target Mode (0.0.8): Concurrent execution mode (--sync) where test steps synchronize across targets via lockstep barrier coordination.
  • Watch Mode & Keep-Alive Engine (0.0.8): Continuous test runner watching source file modifications (--watch) and persistent test sessions (--keep-alive).
  • Configuration Cache & Mobile-Only KMP Support (0.0.8): Full Gradle Configuration Cache compatibility and support for mobile-only projects lacking explicit Desktop/JVM targets.

Active & Upcoming Features

The following features are undergoing design and active implementation for upcoming releases:

  1. Cross-Display Wasm Stability: Standardized Wasm viewport rendering across varying host display scaling, resolutions, and headless CI runners.
  2. IDE Gutter Integration: IntelliJ IDEA / Android Studio plugin enabling direct test execution from editor gutter icons.
  3. Multi-Instance Testing: Capabilities to spin up and control multiple window instances of the same application (e.g., testing chat apps with two desktop client windows).
  4. Multi-Target Testing: Orchestrated test runs targeting multiple platform instances concurrently (e.g., executing and verifying a flow spanning a Desktop app and a Web WasmJs client).
