🎉 Love numbers? You'll love Serenity/JS 3.29! 🎉 We’re excited to share the latest release of Serenity/JS, which is packed with new powerful features for handling numeric data in your automated tests! 🧑🏫 New to Serenity/JS? Start here! Serenity/JS web testing tutorial was called "the best guide if you want to take your automation skills to the next level." ❤️ If you're new to Serenity/JS or web automation in general, start here: https://lnkd.in/eNa4aetn Here’s what’s new in Serenity/JS 3.29: 🖩 Built-in support for arithmetic operations with `Numeric`  ✨ Part of the Serenity/JS Core module, the new `Numeric` class offers built-in support for performing arithmetic operations on both synchronous and asynchronous data types directly within your Serenity/JS test scenarios. In addition, this new class offers methods to help you extract numeric data from REST API responses and web interfaces and convert it to a desired numeric data type without any external libraries or complex workarounds. This enhancement makes your tests more readable, reduces the risk of calculation errors, and ensures data-driven scenarios are both easy to implement and maintain. With Numeric, your test logic is cleaner, making Serenity/JS even more developer-friendly. Learn about `Numeric` at https://lnkd.in/eeVTPwAU 📚 Serenity/JS examples and API docs available in your IDE!  ✨ We continue our effort to bring the thousands of examples available at the Serenity/JS website close to you and your team. As part of that, the new Numeric class ships with 15 new examples, demonstrating how to extract numeric data from user interfaces and data objects. You'll also learn how to use the new features with Serenity/JS Page Element Query Language to make extracting the right UI element even easier!
