Jun 1, 2025

June 2025 — camunda-docs: Delivered CPT Documentation Improvements (Getting Started and Remote Runtime Configuration). Consolidated CPT status messaging by removing alpha disclaimer and positioning CPT as the successor to Zeebe Process Test, with the older library deprecated. Added practical guidance for configuring a remote runtime (e.g., Camunda 8 Run) including setup examples for Spring Boot SDK and Java client, updated the Getting Started page to list available runtimes, and introduced a dedicated remote configuration page. No major bugs reported for this period. These updates streamline onboarding, reduce integration friction for teams adopting Camunda 8 Run, and strengthen the documentation’s alignment with product evolution.
