Test Recorder
The Test Recorder tool is now part of the OpenUI5 framework and is available in all browsers. Use it in any OpenUI5 app to inspect the rendered user interface, view the control properties, and get hints about writing tests. The tool is aligned with the two official OpenUI5 testing tools – OPA5 and UIVeri5.
We have enhanced the functionality to download samples from the Card Explorer, and now there are 3 optional file formats available: JSON, ZIP, and CARD.For more information, see Card Explorer.

Negative Predefined CSS Margin Classes
Negative Predefined CSS Margin Classes
We’ve introduced the following negative CSS margin classes to help you align controls that have their own default margins:
The new version of the OpenUI5 OData V4 model introduces the following features:
The autoExpandSelect:true model setting has been enhanced for property bindings that are added later.
We have added the sap.ui.model.v4.ODataListBinding.getDownloadUrl method.
sap.ui.model.v4.AnnotationHelper.format can now be used for operation parameters.
For messages returned in error responses of operation calls, targets pointing to operation parameters are now parsed correctly.
The sap.ui.model.v4.Context.setProperty method can be used to set properties locally on the client by specifying null as the groupId. The set value is then not included in PATCH and POST requests to create the new entity.
Annotation targets for (overloaded) bound operations in 4.01 Format are also supported in value list metadata.
Restriction:
Due to the limited feature scope of this version of the OpenUI5 OData V4 model, check that all required features are in place before developing applications. Double-check the detailed documentation of the features, as certain parts of a feature may be missing. While we aim to be compatible with existing controls, some controls might not work due to small incompatibilities compared to sap.ui.model.odata.(v2.)ODataModel, or due to missing features in the model (such as tree binding). This also applies to controls such as TreeTable and AnalyticalTable, which are not supported in combination with the OpenUI5 OData V4 model. The interface for applications has been changed for easier and more efficient use of the model. For a summary of these changes, see Changes Compared to OData V2 Model.
We've added remove and reveal actions in the Avatar design-time metadata. Now, the control can be removed and revealed when using UI adaptation at runtime.For more information, see the Samples.

A new experimental Calendar Card type is now available . Its purpose is to give an overview of a single entity (a person, for example). It consists of an interactive calendar, legend, and a schedule. For more information, see Calendar Card in the Card Explorer.
We have enabled Data Sources to be used in the descriptor for sap.ui.integration.widgets.Card. Data Sources are named and reusable manifest entities that hold configuration settings for services. Referenced using special double-bracketed syntax, they are used to construct data request URLs. Data Sources are defined in the sap.app part of the manifest. For more information, see Data Sources in the Card Explorer.
We have introduced new number formatters to represent the data on the UI in human-readable format. Now we have predefined number formatters for:
Currency
Date and Time
Floating-point numbers
Integers
Percent
Units of measurement
For more information, see Card Formatters in the Card Explorer.
We now also support objects as values for manifest parameters. Until now only string values were supported. For more information, see Manifest Parameters section in the Card Explorer.
We have introduced a new experimental type of card - Adaptive Card. With this type of card, you can visualize and reuse cards created using the Microsoft Adaptive Cards specification and manifest, while achieving fully adapted SAP Fiori 3 user experience, out of the box. For more information, see Adaptive Card in the Card Explorer.
