We’re excited to announce the latest release of SauceConnect 5.4.1, now available for download!
This release includes updated dependencies to the latest stable versions, ensuring continued security, reliability, and performance. Please note: there are no changes to business logic in this update.
What is Sauce Connect?
Sauce Connect is our built-in proxy tunnel. It allows you to securely connect a Sauce Labs cloud-based browser or mobile device to a web server living behind your local firewall or within a private network.
A foundational element of our platform, Sauce Connect is a secure "bridge" between your private development environment and the public Sauce Labs testing cloud.
Sauce Connect 5 is the next chapter of highly secure and performant testing. Sauce Connect 5 unlocks enhanced performance (up to 5x improvement in performance and 50x less memory requirements), advanced security protocols (non-proprietary HTTP/2 protocol with SOCKS5 proxy support), and simplified integration and onboarding.
Why Update Now?
We recommend upgrading to version 5.4.1 to take advantage of the latest improvements and maintain a secure, reliable testing environment.
