What it does
TestingBot runs automated, manual, visual, and mobile tests on a hosted browser and device grid. For automation, teams can point existing Selenium or other supported framework tests at TestingBot's remote endpoint, choose a browser and platform, and review the run in a dashboard with video and logs. It suits teams that need coverage across browser or device combinations without maintaining every test machine themselves.
TestingBot is a remote execution service, not a test case generator for an arbitrary application. A useful starting point is an existing Selenium suite and an application URL the cloud browser can reach. Its pricing page lists subscription plans with parallel-session and monthly execution limits. Create an account, retrieve the TestingBot key and secret, point the WebDriver session at the documented hub, and set the desired browser, version, and platform. The service returns a test run with live video, screenshots, browser logs, and Selenium command logs.
For example, take a checkout test that already passes in local Chrome and rerun it on a selected remote Chrome and Windows configuration. The same assertions and page objects can remain in place; the test setup changes to use the remote endpoint and credentials. A tip for teams is to label runs by build and test name so failures can be traced back to a pipeline revision.
TestingBot also offers manual and visual testing and physical mobile devices. Plan allowances can constrain browser coverage or parallel runs.
Strengths
- Runs existing Selenium tests remotely with browser, version, and platform capabilities rather than requiring a new assertion framework.
- The run dashboard provides live video, screenshots, browser logs, and WebDriver command logs.
- The platform combines browser automation with manual, visual, and mobile testing options.
Watch out for
- Automated cloud sessions require an account key and secret, and plan limits can constrain browser coverage or parallel test runs.
- Parallel test capacity and monthly execution time are plan-limited.
Best for
- Teams running Selenium suites across remote browser and operating-system combinations
- QA teams that need a cloud grid for manual or automated mobile testing
- CI pipelines that need video and browser logs alongside automated test results
