Overview
AskUI provides an agentic AI platform for end-to-end test automation, designed to run user acceptance tests across a wide array of applications and devices. Unlike traditional methods that rely on selectors, AskUI interacts with UIs at the pixel level, making tests more resilient to minor UI changes. This approach allows for writing tests in plain language, significantly reducing the need for complex scripting and maintenance.
The platform supports testing across various environments, including legacy desktop applications, web apps, mobile interfaces, automotive infotainment systems, game UIs, and even specialized industrial HMIs. AskUI's agentic testing framework includes components like Cortex for memory management, Dreaming for self-improvement by suggesting test fixes, and Forge for extending agent capabilities. It also offers Grid for managing simulators, emulators, virtual machines, and physical devices on demand.
For security and compliance, AskUI can be deployed on-premise or in fully air-gapped environments, ensuring that sensitive test data remains within the user's network. It integrates with various backend systems, allowing tests to interact with databases, APIs, files, and shell commands, and supports custom tools via C# or MCP servers. This comprehensive approach aims to accelerate testing cycles, reduce bottlenecks, and deliver stable, scalable test suites for regulated industries such as finance, healthcare, and defense.
