Testing Ease the burden of user acceptance testing by using UPK to create and deploy test plans and in-application tester support. With the addition of the new Comments Pane in the Topic editor, Authors can now add expected results to populate Test Case, Test Document and Test It! outputs with the expected behavior for each step of the test plan. To assist in the execution of UAT, UPK 11.1 introduces real time performance support specifically designed for testing. Test It! simulations guide the tester through a test plan and streamline the capturing and compiling of test step results and tester comments. When issues are discovered, they are easily documented through a Test Step Notes editor which is linked to each test step. The process of logging defect reports is simplified with the ability to automatically generate the text of the steps necessary to recreate the problem.

Available as a publishing option for the UPK Player, Test It! can be published in any existing combination of Player modes enabling the tester to review test procedures in a simulated environment prior to running the actual tests.
UPK content review can be accelerated using Test It! as a content review tool. Content reviewers can review topics in the Test It! player assigning pass / fail to each topic frame and provide feedback using the Test Step Notes to direct UPK authors to the issue or needed correction. At the completion of each Test It! topic, UPK generates a test summary and detailed report which can be used to correct the issues.

Topic Frame Commenting A new control pane, Frame Comments has been added in the Topic editor to better facilitate content development. This is available in UPK Developer and the Record It! Wizard and enables authors to enhance their content creation and knowledge transfer efforts with author notes and instructor notes.
Expected Results enables authors to enter the expected results used to evaluate the success or failure of a test step directly in the UPK development environment simplifying test script creation and maintenance. Expected Results are available in the test case, and test document outputs as well as the new Test It! mode.
Author Notes enable authors to store internal notes at a topic frame level and can be added during recording and content editing.
Similar to Topic level Instructor Notes, Frame level Instructor Notes provide a method to communicate content guidance in curriculum development projects where content will be handed off for delivery. Instructor notes can be added to the Instructor Manual or other document outputs via a new document publishing style bookmark.

Knowledge Center UPK Knowledge Center introduces a streamlined user interface and the addition of a new channel of communication for users to provide feedback on specific content areas with authors. This direct channel of communication, in context with course content, provides a critical link between authors / training managers and audience and can assist with identifying gaps in content coverage or issues that slip by content quality checks. Feedback Monitors can be designated on the Title Properties screen for each title and can view and reply to Feedback comments for the entire title.
The Knowledge Center’s Expert Advice feature has been enhanced to streamline the assignment of Experts to titles and removes the exclusive assignments of experts to a specific question enabling the entire expert community to respond to any question at any.
