QA Wolf
Create browser tests 10x faster
Set up browser tests in minutes to find bugs before your users do. QA Wolf helps you create, run, and maintain end-to-end tests 10x faster. We found browser testing too difficult and often gave up on it entirely in our previous jobs. We built QA Wolf for developers like us who want to spend less time testing and more time shipping. QA Wolf is zero-effort automated QA. We get you to 80% coverage in four months, and keep you there, so your team can stay focused on shipping. 2/3 of tech companies have less than 50% test coverage. Why? Traditional QA strategies pit coverage against velocity. The more testing you do, the slower you ship. QA Wolf is different. By combining the best parts of in-house QA & test platforms, we deliver ultra-high end-to-end test coverage that never slows you down. First step is getting to know your app. You don’t have to have any kind of test plan; a short demo is all we need. -

VCR.py
Automatically mock your HTTP interactions to simplify testing
Automatically mock your HTTP interactions to simplify and speed up testing. VCR.py simplifies and speeds up tests that make HTTP requests. The first time you run code that is inside a VCR.py context manager or decorated function, VCR.py records all HTTP interactions that take place through the libraries it supports and serializes and writes them to a flat file (in yaml format by default). This flat file is called a cassette. When the relevant piece of code is executed again, VCR.py will read the serialized requests and responses from the aforementioned cassette file, and intercept any HTTP requests that it recognizes from the original test run and return the responses that corresponded to those requests. This means that the requests will not actually result in HTTP traffic, which confers several benefits including: -

Drill
Drill is an HTTP load testing application written in Rust
Drill is an HTTP load-testing application written in Rust. The main goal for this project is to build a really lightweight tool as an alternative to other that require JVM and other stuff. You can write benchmark files, in YAML format, describing all the stuff you want to test. It was inspired by Ansible syntax because it is really easy to use and extend. As you can see, you can play with interpolations in different ways. This will let you specify a benchmark with different requests and dependencies between them. Right now, the easiest way to get drill is to go to the latest release page and download the binary file for your platform. OpenSSL is needed in order to compile Drill, whether it is through cargo install or when compiling from source with cargo build. -

speedtest-cli
Command line interface for testing internet bandwidth using speedtest
Command line interface for testing internet bandwidth using speedtest.net. It is not a goal of this application to be a reliable latency reporting tool. Latency reported by this tool should not be relied on as a value indicative of ICMP style latency. It is a relative value used for determining the lowest latency server for performing the actual speed test against. Speedtest CLI brings the trusted technology and global server network behind Speedtest to the command line. Measure internet connection performance metrics like download, upload, latency and packet loss natively without relying on a web browser. Test the internet connection of your Linux desktop, a remote server or even lower-powered devices such as the Raspberry Pi with the Speedtest Server Network. Set up automated scripts to collect connection performance data, including trends over time. -

Loki
Visual Regression Testing for Storybook
There are a few visual regression tools for the web, but most either cannot be run headless or use phantomjs which is deprecated and a browser nobody is actually using. They usually also require you to maintain fixtures. With react-native it's now possible to target multiple platforms with a single code base, but there's no single tool to test all to my knowledge. Loki aims to have easy setup, no to low maintenance cost, reproducible tests independent of which OS they are run on, runnable on CI, and support all platforms storybook does. -
21
VBot
JSON based visual regression testing library
A visual regression testing library/tool, aims to quickly automate browser-based tests with minimum development overhead. To test flexibly in different testing scenarios, either testing against web UI wired with backends or just static web pages, VBot exposes API to be used with testing frameworks like mocha or ava, etc. Therefore, the test data variables can be updated according to different conditions, in order to decouple from real backends and avoid false negative results. -
