<code>KTM 8.93</code>A major release. Checks are now tailored to each step type with clear plain-language conditions. Variables become a real input/output system with runtime capture and updates. Monitors can now watch entire test campaigns. And yes, dark mode is here 🤩 .<h2>✅ New: Checks, redesigned from the ground up</h2>Checks are no longer one-size-fits-all. Each step type now offers checks that make sense for what it does.<img data-width="100%" data-align="left" alt="" data-featurebase-content-key="660551ce336226cef3e0a9b2/changelog/6a9eb56dfff7e2ed57675213/01a07c2e-48f7-71ab-a528-b7adc6447b30/b64u-ODk2XzF4X3Nob3RzX3NvLnBuZw.png" data-featurebase-content-filename="896_1x_shots_so.png" src="https://660551ce336226cef3e0a9b2.featurebase-attachments.com/c/changelog/6a9eb56dfff7e2ed57675213/01a07c2e-48f7-71ab-a528-b7adc6447b30/b64u-ODk2XzF4X3Nob3RzX3NvLnBuZw.png?X-Amz-Expires=3600&amp;X-Amz-Date=20260920T180000Z&amp;X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&amp;X-Amz-Credential=DO801TYC4FCVNNEKURKM%2F20260920%2Ffra1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&amp;X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&amp;X-Amz-Signature=365fcf25088651cd985e45ab35ee1f26be7d32e1de340d8ecb59482e159de204">What's changed:<ul><li>Step-specific checks: API, email and web steps each get their own relevant checks</li><li>Success and warnings are independent: A warning no longer decides whether a step passes.
