Simplest and best automation tool using machine learning for testing

PROS

This is one of the simplest tools for software testing purpose. It helps to automate web browsers like Selenium IDE and Selenium WebDriver and other such automation tools. mabl is a really great platform as it is lightweight and a simple browser plugin that does the work. No heavy sized software download, even though a great tool. It is the only automation tool recently built that has an outstanding feature that I personally love the most and can benefit most organizations if used in the correct manner. The feature of auto-healing using machine learning concepts, as it helps the automation scripts to run even if there is a big UI change in the product code. This tool doesn't require any tester or developer to know to code and can write scriptless code by simply fetching data based on the user's actions performed. Once the journey and plans are ready, it is really simple to execute them and trigger them in a timely fashion. It provide great visuals and monitors anomalies too! It keeps a track of network spikes and tracks performance of the platform. It has the functionality to trigger mails to concerned people via Slack and mail integrations. Any bugs encountered can be easily handled and can be synced with tools like Bamboo, JIRA, Jenkins, etc. I would personally recommend people to use this as it is THE CUTTING EDGE TOOL for future generations. I signed up for the product and got an instant demo from Preston, a test automation specialist at mabl, who did a wonderful job!

CONS

No cons presently, just loving the tool. I would really prefer if the tool was free of cost (open source) like Selenium and other automation tools. Life would be in our pockets and we would be called the AUTOMATION BOSSES of mabl using Machine learning.

Young Automation souloution with great potential

What attracted us was the self healing plugin and also the ease of creating new tests for our colleagues without programming knowledge. Although the design looked really new and flashy it was hard to find what you need at first, especially while being in the tutorial. I do think however that if they focus on making the test creation even easier and more reliable (through self helaing or whatever else) that they do have a great chance on the automation market! Ultimately we didnt choose them since my old company didnt want to invest a lot of money into QA.

PROS

The Tutorial should help you create all your needed basic tests and is helping you run them periodically with suggestions. A fresh UI and design approach.

CONS

At first everything was a bit overwhelming, even though there was a tutorial. I wanted to check something so i exited one exercise and wasnt able to get back into it later. Getting the local tunnel to work was really stressfull, i didnt find or overlook the info that java11 was needed and the support people didnt have a clue that you need a specific version so we wasted almost our whole trial with getting that to work. To be fair it was prolonged after i contacted them though!

Reason for choosing mabl

Cheaper pricing, which was unfortunately still to high for our company in the end.

The product has more bugs than its worth, and it takes longer to perform its tests than one of my te

I want to be clear, I think that this product is on the right track, and is going to be amazing. this tool will free up the testers from the less effective validation of the product by doing that kind of testing, thus freeing up the tester to actually test and see where things break. Ai is the automation direction that we need to go, and mabl will free up money and people to do the jobs that we are needed to do.

PROS

It is easy to set up use, and get running. Apparently I have to be more wordy in this field, why I dont know.

CONS

The problem is that the tool will log its self out and then pass the remaining tests. The chrome pug-in requires a login but then forces the user to log in again to the website in the same browser, after clicking the button in the plug-in. creating tests that would manipulate the data seem easy, with applying some simple coding skills the user is able to create valuable tests. the problem is that mabl cant find the field, button, or part of the page that was selected in the test creation and simply stop running, no error, nothing. Dont get me wrong I think that this tool is going to be amazing, the problem is that it is simply not there yet.

Simple, yet powerful

Previously, with our selenium-based framework tests would take too long to write and maintain, which made it impossible to develop new e2e tests within sprints for the new features we were developing. With Mabl, we can quickly write tests so that we have UI automation coverage within the same sprint for new features.

PROS

Mabl has become the go-to for our e2e testing needs. Creation and maintenance of tests has become a breeze. Test failure investigation is quicker than before with detailed screenshots and HAR captures.

CONS

Mabl is not always able to handle tricker elements in our UI, which requires us to write custom JS steps or reach to to their support. Also, run-time of our tests is slower than our previous selenium-based tests.

Useful test automation tool for monitoring website performance and checking broken links

Learned about a new and easy to use web monitoring tool which provides easy access to UI tests with with little setup time, but provides long term reporting on issues with an app.

PROS

Mabl provides a very straightforward user interface to set up an automated test which can perform smoke tests like checking all of the links on a page and report back all of the broken links. The learning curve is very small, so you can set up a new test in production in less than 10 minutes having never used the app before. It will send out a report by e-mail at your preferred interval with the test execution status, time, run time, pages checked, links checked and broken links.

CONS

It is quite bare bones as it is, if you already have complex API tests in Postman, Selenium IDE and Java/C# tests Jenkins, then Using Mabl in addition to these would really be nothing more than a novelty. Because your current unit tests and CI smoke tests probably provide ample code coverage. I would imagine the value from the mabl tests are aimed at a novice user with zero development background who needs basic website monitoring. Because you could probably get this data and more details on page exceptions from a tool like Datadog, Bugsnag or Kibana or Kubernetes. I would imagine that future iterations of the product will probably be more feature rich in these areas.
