Hi all, I’m looking for recommendations you have on genAI e2e automation writing tools.
I’m working with an old school architecture website (think no APIs, SQL queries of a database forming pages that are served to the browser with the data embedded). I’m looking to form some quick characterisation tests over the application, behavioural tests driven from the UI to start documenting behaviour and function.
I want ideally:
To have the tool crawl the site and develop tests for me.
Not record and playback, I want the tool to do the work.
To be able to run in a gitlab pipeline.
To have the tests generated in code, so that we can use them as documentation.
To work from the front end (web / mobile) without the need for APIs.
Bonus: To not create millions of tests for every minor thing.
Has anyone been researching and know of any good tools to point me in the direction of? I’m open to taking any leads at the moment
So i have a ‘wee’ list im looking into next month if that helps that fits the reqs almost all of them at some level in no order:
Mabl (designed to work without needing direct API access)
Testim (also focuses on FE web testing without needing APIs)
AutonomIQ (SauceLabs - the above but also allows filtering for test case pri, so not overwhelmed by minor tcs)
Functionize ( again no api access needed)
Reflect (again no api access needed and reports to maintain only necessary tests, to support advise to stop overloading the test suite, - my brother uses it specifically cause the tests generated can be exported as code for use in docs but its “no code” so unsure what that looks like yet)
all gitlab friendly - so that is my October list of toys to try if it helps in some way
