  • Message on parent of outermost band is misleading on Analytics/Conformance screen when some but not all interactions are supported.

  • Rule parameter values are not properly listed on Ruleset popup.

  • Clicking on Ruleset link causes error if ruleset uses same rule more than once.

TS 3.4.6 - May 4, 2017

Enhancement

Bug fix

  • Extended-Operation interactions are not matched correctly against the Conformance Statement. Even though conformance statement declares e.g. “‘reference’ : ‘OperationDefinition/ValueSet-validate-code’”, Touchstone expects “‘reference’ : ‘OperationDefinition/valueset-validate-code’”, and flags the interaction as unsupported. Either reference will now work.

TS 3.3.5 - Jan 11, 2017

Enhancements

  • Support for FHIR TestReport. Users can now retrieve test results via Touchstone API in FHIR TestReport format. Details can be found in the UserGuide.

  • Peer-to-Peer Testing: Touchstone should not auto-retrieve conformance statements during test execution and once a day for test systems that are marked as purely client test systems. Users should still have the option of manually downloading the conformance statement on the UI.

  • Peer-to-Peer Testing: Client request-submission attributes should be more prominent on the Script Execution screen.

  • Peer-to-Peer Testing: Default checks should be made during test execution for HTTP method and URL submission by the client so bad submits can be caught upstream and reported to user.

    The Advanced-FHIR1-8-0, Basic-FHIR1-8-0, and Connectathon14 test scripts use FHIRPath expressions for some assertion evaluations.

    Details can be found at http://hl7.org/fhirpath/index.html

    Touchstone continues to support “variable.path”, “assertion. path”, and “assertion. path” elements where built-in XPath/JSONPath is executed.

TS 3.2.5 - Dec 19, 2016

TS 3.2.1 - Nov 29, 2016

Enhancements

TS 3.2.0 - Nov 28, 2016

Enhancements

  • Ability for users to delete test system even if it has test executions.

  • Display link to Conformance statement on Analytics/Conformance screen.

  • Show test systems for the signed-in user’s organization on Test Systems screen by default.

  • Conformance icon on Test Execution screen indicates one or more test scripts have unsupported interactions but screen does not indicate which test script in the list is the culprit. User has to click on each test script execution to find out. Test Execution screen now shows which test scripts in the list have unsupported interactions.

  • Display icon for unsupported interactions in orange instead of red on Test Execution and Script Execution screens.

Bug fixes

  • Clicking on XML on Conformance statement popup retrieves JSON Conformance statement. It should retrieve XML Conformance statement.

TS 3.0.3 - Sept 29, 2016

Enhancements

  • Add support for conditionDelete/single, conditionalDelete/multiple, updateCreate, and conditionalRead to conformance-based testing.

  • Move Test Systems link to the top menu so it’s visible at all times.

  • New set of options for execute access on New Test System and Edit Test system screen allows separation of view-access from execute-access. Test systems that use access tokens can have execute-access restricted without affecting view-access.

    • This is useful in Client-side/Peer-to-Peer testing.

  • Do not set ‘Content-Type’ and ‘Accept’ headers in request when TestScript has explicitly specified ‘none’ for operation contentType and accept.

    • This is useful in verifying test-system behavior when these headers have not been set.

TS 2.4.2 - June 13, 2016

Bug fix

  • Test Engine ignores response assertions when request assertions are present in peer-to-peer operations.

TS 2.4.1 - June 07, 2016

Bug fix

  • Improvements in conformance checks and display of conformance statements.

    • Some FHIR servers can only return conformance statements in one format. Touchstone now attempts to retrieve conformance statements first in JSON and then in XML if JSON fails. In the past, Touchstone only attempted XML conformance statement retrieval during conformance checks.

  • Validations per specification version.

    • Profile and resource validations during execution of test script FHIR spec 2.1 will be performed against FHIR spec 2.1 Validator. Similarly, profile and resource validations in 2.0 test script executions will be performed against FHIR spec 2.0 Validator, etc. In the past Touchstone validated only against latest FHIR validator.

Bug fixes

  • The Supported Profiles column gets squashed on Test System list screen.

  • Conformance retrieval needs to use access tokens for test systems that require OAuth2.

TS 2.0.0 - January 06, 2016

Enhancements

  • Support for Client-side (Peer-to-Peer) Testing.

    • Origin elements are now presented on Test Setup and Test Execution screens as Touchstone may not be the origin for all message exchanges.

    • Support for multiple destinations in Test Setup and Test Execution.

    • Conformance checks are being done against multiple origins and destinations that could be involved in test executions.

  • Support for user-defined variables in Test Setup.

  • Test Setup (and reexecution of new Test Executions) will pull latest test scripts.

    • There is no need any more to create new Test Setups when test scripts change in the system.

    • When user clicks on Test Script, Fixture, and Profile links in old test executions, the latest Test Scripts and Fixtures are NOT displayed. The ones that were used at the time of execution are displayed.

  • New Exchanges screen that displays all messages exchanges (Touchstone and Client initiated messages).

    • This screen allows users to filter for Response codes and overall Operation assertion status for their test systems. This allows users to find all “bad” response codes from their test systems, for example.

    • This screen is also useful in Client-side testing as request messages that do not match the user test execution can be found here.

  • Improvements to Test Script Execution screen layout.

  • Support for PATCH operation.

  • Support for conformance operation via HTTP OPTIONS.

  • Addition of Connectathon11 Test Scripts.
