Learning centerAs of March 2025, Leapwork provides Early Access (EA) builds, full product versions released ahead of the regular release cycle. These builds are available in the Downloads section of the Customer Portal and are clearly marked as Early Access.
These builds let you explore upcoming features before general availability and share feedback with our product team. While they offer early insights, they are experimental and not intended for production use.
Note: EA builds may have limited functionality and are not covered by our standard support agreement.
We follow five core principles, foremost among them is putting customers first. Early Access allows us to:
Gather feedback from early adopters
Validate new features
Let you influence the direction of Leapwork.
If you're passionate about shaping the future of test automation, EA builds are your chance to contribute.
You can download the latest EA builds from the Downloads section of the Customer Portal. We recommend installing them on a separate test machine, not in your primary Leapwork environment.
No. GA and Early Access are separate release tracks with different compatibility and support considerations. To evaluate an EA release, install it in a non-production test environment.
No. Direct downgrades are not supported. To return to a GA version, uninstall the EA version and install the GA version in a clean environment. Always back up your test data before installing preview builds.
To upgrade to EA 2025.1.235, start from version 2024.2.32. Do not upgrade via version 2025.1.173, as this may cause issues.
Limited support is available for installation and feedback-related questions. However, EA builds are not covered by production SLAs. See our support policy for details:
Leapwork Support Policy
We track and review all reported issues. However, bug fixes in EA builds are not prioritised over fixes for GA releases.
Use the built-in feedback channels in the product or reach out via the Leapwork Customer Portal.
Back up all flows and test data.
Install on a separate machine from your production setup.
Review the known limitations of the EA build.
After successful validation and review, selected EA features will be included in a future GA release. Updates will be shared via our Product Roadmap.
We are exploring options such as feature toggles and trial modes. However, due to the on-premises nature of our platform, implementing a unified upgrade path remains complex.
On-premises software environments don’t always support feature toggles or staged rollouts. Maintaining a separate EA release line allows us to safely test features like the new Recorder with select users before general release.
