15^th May 2019 - Unified Interactive and Automation minutest into Testing minutes¶

In Suitest we aim to create the best, most intuitive product possible so you can focus on what you do best. Your feedback is essential to this process and this is why we decided to merge Automation and Interactive minutes into a single resource called Testing minutes, all thanks to customer feedback.

The change brings a number of benefits for you:

• No confusion between Interactive and Automation minutes anymore.
• Testing minutes will not be counted when you are connected to a device (Interactive mode) for device management purposes or just simply browsing inside the app using the virtual remote controller. You can be connected to your device as long as you want and not be charged any minutes until you start executing test lines.

Testing minutes will only be consumed during the following activities (for Suitest JavaScript API and Suitest web app):

• Time spent for test execution in Automated mode.
• Time of all tests and test lines running in Interactive mode (for own devices).
• Time spent in Interactive mode on devices that are shared with you.

To make things sweeter, we are increasing the amount of spendable minutes for the Sweeter, Super Sweet and The Sweetest plans.

Subscription plan	Current	New
Sweeter	900	1000
Super Sweet	2000	2200
The Sweetest	4000	4500

Only the Automation minutes that have been spent will be transferred into Testing minutes, and all Interactive minutes used before this change will be disregarded.
