Usetrace automates functional end-to-end UI testing on website apps. It helps you ensure that the features visible to end users work as expected. Usetrace includes regression testing, production monitoring, performance, and load testing, making it an essential tool in QA engineering.
Usetrace does not require programming. How are the automated tests made?
Usetrace’s automated tests, called traces, are created by interacting with your site as your users would. These interactions, such as clicks on buttons and checks (elements visible on the page, e.g. text), are recorded into reusable routines, building a maintainable automation test suite for your application’s user interface. This is why Usetrace is especially useful […]
What are the main features and capabilities of Usetrace?
Do I need a test server?
You can also run your tests against your own laptop or development computer using a tunneled connection to make your web server publicly accessible. See Tunneled Connection to learn more. This flexibility benefits QA engineering teams that need versatile testing automation.
How long does it take to set up Usetrace for an existing web project?
You should be able to create your first trace in 5 to 10 minutes after registration. To create your first trace, see our 3-minute “First Trace” tutorial.
