Here are the key features of 3270Connect:

• Running workflows defined in a configuration file.
• Capturing the 3270 screens as the workflow executes.
• Running workflows concurrently with options for controlling the number of concurrent workflows and runtime duration.

Known issues and short term planned changes

1. When running under concurrent mode with runtime and the volumes are high, the tactical logic to sleep and retry on issue no longer works. This is planed to be replaced with wait_for_field logic. Done

2. When running under concurrent mode with no runtime, the ramp logic is not in place. Fixed

3. When running in API mode, make headless the default option. Done

4. Remake the videos in higher resolution. Done

5. When running in API mode, provide a new option to return the HTML screen grab contents.

6. App additional dynamic sample 3270 applications
