What new automation tools have you used in the last 6 months?

It’s interesting to see what tools people are testing out and using. Have you tried any of these? Is it time to branch out and try a few out?

We asked on Twitter and LinkedIn

I’ve been trying Splinter and Behave as part of my Python self-learning.

TestCompass, MBT tool.

Recently I usedTestIM.io and trying to explore some open source AI ML based automation tool…

GhostInspector

I’m using endtest_io, it’s amazing.

UI Automation: Selenide with TestNG (easy docker configurations/implementation)
API testing: Rest assured
Performance testing: JMeter (don’t recommend as it consumes a lot of memory as they keep all the results in the RAM)

CodeceptJS with Microsoft Playwright - Fast JS-based tests running in a built-in Browser framework - some decent configuration required and understanding of a mix of JS technologies - just released from initial development phase
Tricentis TOSCA - WYSIWYG automation - quick and easy API test development and deployment - highly customisable - understanding and support required to set up and run

Webdriver.io

Cypress, Jenkins Pipeline Scripts

Reflect.run

Let us know what you’ve been using lately.
