TestingWhiz

TestingWhiz is a codeless automation tool for testing web, desktop, mobile, database, FTP, cloud, web-service, and API targets. It includes recorders for web, mobile, and desktop applications, plus OCR through Google Vision API and Tesseract. An integrated Selenium Java editor can import existing Selenium tests and lets users write Selenium code. Browser support includes Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge, Edge Chromium, and headless browsers; profiles are available for BrowserStack, LambdaTest, and Sauce Labs. CI plugins cover Azure DevOps, Jenkins, AWS, and Bamboo. The tool also connects with test-management products such as Micro Focus ALM, Zephyr, TestRail, and Azure DevOps services; defect tracking includes JIRA, Mantis, FogBugz, and Azure DevOps Server. Version-control integrations include Subversion, GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket. Reports include HTML and PDF output, execution trends, failure screenshots, and execution video recording. Scripts are created only on Windows but can run on Mac and Linux. The Community Edition is free, a trial is listed, and paid pricing is on request.

TestingWhiz offers broad testing targets, recorders, and integrations, with a free Community Edition. A key constraint is that script creation is limited to Windows, even though execution is supported on Mac and Linux.

It suits teams automating tests across multiple software targets, browsers, and mobile environments. Teams with existing Selenium tests or CI, test-management, defect-tracking, and version-control workflows may find its integrations useful.

Overview

TestingWhiz brings web, desktop, mobile, API and other software testing into one automation product, with recorders for several kinds of interface and support for Selenium Java tests. It is a strong fit for teams that want to connect test automation to established development tools. The Windows-only authoring requirement is its clearest drawback for teams that work on Mac or Linux.

Key features

TestingWhiz targets web, desktop, mobile, web services and APIs, databases, FTP and browser extensions, with cloud testing also in scope. Its Object Eye web recorder, mobile recorder and visual desktop recorder offer different routes to building tests. Integrated OCR uses Google Vision API and Tesseract, useful when an automated check needs to recognize interface text.

Teams with Selenium Java tests can import them into the integrated editor and keep writing Selenium code. Browser coverage includes Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge, Edge Chromium and headless browsers, with profiles for BrowserStack, LambdaTest and Sauce Labs. That breadth gives teams options for cross-browser execution, though it does not remove the Windows requirement for creating scripts.

CI plugins connect with Azure DevOps, Jenkins, AWS and Bamboo. TestingWhiz also integrates with Micro Focus ALM, Zephyr, TestRail and Azure DevOps services for test management; JIRA, Mantis, FogBugz and Azure DevOps Server for defect tracking; and Subversion, GitHub, GitLab and Bitbucket for version control. These connections make it a more natural fit for teams already using those tools than for teams seeking a standalone testing workflow.

HTML and PDF reports, execution trends, failure screenshots and execution video recording give teams several ways to review runs and investigate failures. Web-services testing includes checks for denial-of-service attacks, penetration and spam data. TestingWhiz supports scheduling and hybrid execution, alongside mobile and cross-browser testing.

Pricing

TestingWhiz uses a freemium model. The Community Edition costs nothing and offers a way to start without a license fee.

Node Locked has custom pricing and assigns one machine per user. It includes the Desktop, Web, Mobile, Database, FTP and API modules, so it suits an individual tied to a dedicated machine who needs that full module set.

Floating also has custom pricing. It allows one session at a time across machines and includes Desktop, Web, Mobile, FTP, Database and API modules. That suits teams that need to move access between machines but can work within a single concurrent session.

All paid plans include unlimited help from the support team, knowledge-base and user-community access, product updates, training and webinars.

Platforms

TestingWhiz is listed for Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, Windows and extension platforms. The key distinction is between where teams can run automation and where they can build it: scripts are created only on Windows, although execution is supported on Mac and Linux. That makes it a poor fit for teams that need to author tests on those operating systems.

Who it's for

TestingWhiz makes sense for QA teams that cover several test targets, need browser and mobile automation, or want to bring Selenium Java tests into a broader tool with CI, test-management, defect-tracking and version-control integrations. It is less suitable for teams that require Mac or Linux authoring, or that need more than one simultaneous session on the Floating plan.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Multiple recorders and broad test-target coverage support different testing needs in one product.
• Pros: Selenium Java import and authoring can help teams carry existing tests forward.
• Pros: CI, test-management, defect-tracking and version-control integrations connect testing with common development workflows.
• Pros: Failure screenshots, execution video and trend reports provide useful ways to review runs.
• Cons: Script creation is restricted to Windows, limiting teams that author on Mac or Linux.
• Cons: Floating permits only one session at a time, which may constrain parallel work.
• Cons: Node Locked is tied to one machine per user, limiting where that user can work.

Alternatives

Test Automation Software is a directory category for comparing tools in this field.

For a free messaging service focused on cloud messaging, Firebase Cloud Messaging is a different kind of product; it is not a direct substitute for broad test automation.

Katalon Studio is another option for teams considering test automation software.

Testim offers a free Community plan for one organization, with support limited to documentation and Community Slack; consider it if those terms suit your team.

TestMu AI Web Automation has a free forever tier with 100 lifetime minutes and two parallel web and mobile automation sessions, so it may suit a team whose initial usage fits those caps.

Tricentis Testim offers a free plan capped at 1,000 runs per month, which may suit teams able to work within that run allowance.

Parasoft SOAtest is another paid testing product with custom pricing.

ACCELQ is another freemium option for teams comparing automation platforms.

Testsigma offers Test Management Pro at $14 a month, billed at $14/user/month; that may suit teams looking for a priced test-management plan.

Verdict

Choose TestingWhiz if your team needs broad automated testing, recorder-based authoring, Selenium Java support and integrations with its existing delivery tools. Its free Community Edition lowers the barrier to evaluate the product, while paid plans include unlimited support and training. Look elsewhere if Mac or Linux script authoring is essential, or if your team needs multiple simultaneous sessions under the Floating plan.
