First generation test automation tools were not built with the capabilities to meet the needs of today’s high-velocity, agile software development teams. Legacy solutions typically involve complex frameworks and an outdated UI that requires highly skilled users to create, maintain, and run tests.
mabl's is the industry-leading low code test automation alternative to Selenium that can help you significantly improve test reliability and reduce test maintenance by as much as 80%.
Selenium - and similar assembled testing frameworks - have been the de facto web application testing standard for nearly two decades. It’s a tool that software development teams have relied on to build and execute automated tests that help prevent bugs from being released into production. Although Selenium is still used today, software development has evolved and so have quality engineering strategies and testing tools.
It’s no great revelation that development timelines have accelerated, and applications have grown more complex. Software teams who are using Selenium in today’s fast-paced world are struggling with test reliability issues, and trying to keep up with the maintenance of all their tests and packages. While there are still many use-cases where Selenium is the right tool for the job, increasingly teams are adopting alternatives like mabl’s low-code test automation solution.
No complex setup, no libraries - with mabl anyone can simply create and run automated tests by clicking through their application the same way customers do.
With mabl, test creation and maintenance does not require advanced engineering knowledge. Test automation is accessible to everyone on your team.
Testers no longer have to struggle with brittle tests. As your application evolves, mabl improves reliability by automatically healing tests along with it.
mabl users get detailed test results that can be shared easily, giving quality and dev teams the visibility they need for quick and efficient bug resolution.
Switching to mabl doesn’t necessarily mean starting over. Import your Selenium tests directly into mabl and immediately benefit from low-code test automation.
Friends of mabl
"The thing that really sold us on mabl was its ability to integrate with our engineering workflow. Engineers can be running mabl tests, not just the unit tests, not just their integration tests, but actual mabl tests as part of their workflow. We think it's going to have an incredibly important impact on the future growth of Stack Overflow."

"With mabl, we can accomplish in a few hours what it used to take two weeks of testing to do. The platform is increasing the velocity of the sprint teams so that we’re delivering more product with a higher level of quality, and providing a lot more value to the business. I wish we’d found mabl even earlier than we did."
