Reliable Infrastructure for Desktop and Mobile Tests

A large variety of virtual machines and real mobile devices to test your web, mobile, and desktop applications are available in webmate. The infrastructure can be controlled remotely from your browser or through numerous automated interfaces.

Outsource your Test Infrastructure!

No maintenance effort on your part. Testfabrik manages the VM templates and mobile devices and regularly provides new versions of operating systems and browsers.

No Usage Restrictions

Your infrastructure is yours alone. There is no limit to how often and for how long you can use your devices and virtual machines in your dedicated cloud.

Simulation of Hardware Sensors
and Network

To reflect reality as accurately as possible in your tests, simulations of hardware sensors like GPS, biometrical sensors, or device cameras are featured in webmate. Different network conditions with low bandwidths as well as high packet loss can also be simulated.

Integration into Enterprise Environments

To meet the requirements of larger enterprises regarding security, configurability, and maintainability, the following features are available in webmate:

  • Network integration with VPN technologies such as IPSec or OpenVPN
  • Single Sign-On (SSO) with OpenID Connect
  • Flexible role and rights management
  • Management of your resources in projects
  • Usage statistics

Made in Germany and Hosted in German Data Centers

The security of your data is important to us. To satisfy regulatory and legal requirements, we guarantee that your test data and infrastructure is located as close to you as possible. For our German customers, this means that all data and data processing never leaves German ground and is governed by German law.

Test Automation for Maximum Efficiency

Your test infrastructure can either be manually controlled or remotely controlled with Appium/Selenium. This makes it easy to use the devices in existing test environments.

Open Standards, Full Compatibility, and Security of Investment

Building your test cases on open standards makes switching infrastructure providers as easy as changing a URL. Avoid getting locked-in and stay capable of choosing the best tools for the task at hand.

In Good Company

webmate is a fully compatible Selenium and Appium grid hub and can be used by all test tools and frameworks that support these quasi-standards, such as:

  • Protractor
  • webdriver.io
  • Tricentis Tosca

A Well-Stocked Toolbox

webmate comes equipped with lots of features that help you automate your tests.

Does your application or website send emails to your users? How do you test automatically if emails are sent correctly and have the right content?

Is correct layout important to you? webmate provides tools that automatically compare the layout between different browsers and devices or different versions of your application.

Test Analytics: Traveling the World with Open Eyes

Testing compares specifications with reality. From this brief definition, it is clear that gathering information about reality, i.e., the application to be tested, is an essential aspect of testing. That is why gathering and processing data of applications, tests and test environments is a key feature of webmate.

Expedition and Artifacts

We believe that researchers and testers have much in common. Both aim to discover new things (e.g., bugs) as well as to test hypotheses („The ordering process works as it is supposed to“). It is no coincidence that we named two key features in webmate „Expedition“ and „Artifact“. Similar to a researcher, a tester goes on an expedition with their browser or app, navigating through an application, and collecting artefacts, i.e., data points, that can be evaluated later on.

When running a test in webmate, a variety of artifact collectors can be activated, whose results form the foundation of the later test results.

Analysis of Past Test Sessions

Has this ever happened to you? You turn on your PC in the morning and your CI/CD system greets you with a bunch of failed tests. Now you ask yourself:

  • Was there a problem with your test infrastructure during the night?
  • Has an error crept into your tests?
  • Is it really an error in the application?

To efficiently evaluate situations like these, you need a 360 degree view of past tests. With webmate, you get a comprehensive view of a variety of information, which will help you draw the right conclusions.

Test Intelligence: The Best Test Is the One You Do Not Have to Write Yourself

Test automation is a difficult task. Writing automated test cases is like blindfolding a stranger and asking them to look for a jam jar in the basement. Giving the right instructions is far from easy. Things that are intuitively clear to you have to be said explicitly, and any slight deviation from reality leads to a failure. With webmate, you have a variety of tools to create more stable tests and, ideally, to even reaching your goals without writing your own test scripts.

Test Innovation

Have you ever had to check whether the analytics tags on all your pages are correct? Or whether the internationalization was implemented correctly in all languages? Have you switched from one CMS to another one and faced the challenge of checking whether the content was migrated correctly? Our webmate platform is the ideal starting point to achieve your individual testing goals.
