The most significant improvements in Eclipse TPTP 4.1 include:

  1. Tool vendors can now build TPTP-based performance tools for applications in C/C++ and other compiled languages.
    • The TPTP data model has been expanded to support application performance data from non-Java applications, such as C/C++.
    1. Web application testing capability has been demonstrated by integrating with other Eclipse technology.
      • TPTP 4.1 has integrated with the Eclipse Java Development Tools (JDT) and Web Tools Platform (WTP) projects to enable web application testing.
      1. Data collection on a local system has been made simpler, with no need for a separate agent controller.
        • Local data collection no longer requires separate installation and configuration of an agent controller. The functionality is included in a TPTP runtime plug-in that runs inside the Eclipse workbench.
