Donobu
Donobu provides an AI-powered testing platform that automatically explores web and mobile applications, generates self-healing Playwright tests, and runs continuous quality checks across every release, locale, and page. The platform covers functional, API, exploratory, mobile, localization, and content testing, with AI agents executing real user journeys and engineers reviewing every finding before it reaches the customer. Tests are delivered as local-first TypeScript Playwright code that lives in the customer's own repository.

Problem
Developers and coding agents spend significant time writing and maintaining browser tests, which often break when UI elements change. Traditional test automation relies on brittle selectors and manual rewrites, slowing down development cycles and reducing confidence in web app reliability.
Solution
Donobu is a continuous quality platform that uses AI agents to test the whole product—not just the happy path—on every release. The platform automatically explores websites, detects issues, and writes self-healing Playwright tests without manual scripting. When the UI changes, Donobu updates tests automatically, eliminating brittle selectors and manual maintenance. The platform covers functional testing of critical user journeys, API testing on Playwright's request fixture, exploratory testing with no script required, mobile app testing for native Android and iOS builds via Appium, localization QA across every shipped locale, and content QA against editorial guidelines. Test engineers review every finding before it reaches the customer, and all tests are delivered as local-first TypeScript Playwright code that lives in the customer's own repository.
Target Audience
Primary users are software developers, QA engineers, and AI coding agents at tech companies and product-engineering teams who need fast, reliable test automation for web and mobile applications without the overhead of manual test maintenance.
Features
- AI-powered autonomous exploration of web apps to detect issues and generate Playwright tests automatically
- Self-healing test maintenance that automatically updates tests when UI changes occur
- Playwright-native test generation for deterministic, replayable browser flows with AI-powered semantic assertions
- API testing on Playwright's request fixture with deterministic calls, assertions, polling, and redacted secrets in reports
- Mobile app testing for native Android .apk and iOS .app builds driven through Appium using the same exploring and self-healing model
- Localization QA that tests products in every shipped locale with replayable evidence, reducing a five-week crowd-testing regression run to about four hours
- Content QA that checks pages against editorial rules for tone, factual accuracy, freshness, terminology, and broken media
- Local execution environment that runs tests securely on the developer's own machine
- Support for both autonomous and manual browser flow execution
- MCP integration for use from Claude Code, Cursor, and other MCP-compatible clients
