We're thrilled to announce the beta release of GPT v2.0.0!
To achieve consistent and comparable results GPT is now designed primarily to be used with an updated and expanded test data set. This allows you to validate if the target environment is performing as expected by testing with the exact same data and then comparing the results with our GitLab Reference Architectures.
To facilitate this change we've developed a new helper tool, the GPT Data Generator, that will update your environment to have all of the required test data as well as update it if required!
As this is a major release and contains several breaking changes in regards to configuration and test data. Please refer to the upgrade notes to learn more.
