Author and run deterministic mobile + web end-to-end tests — without writing code. Built so an intern, a junior QA, or an engineer with zero automation background can successfully test a complex app on day one.

Automation is usually gatekept by experts — you need to know a framework, selectors, async waits, CI. So most manual testers can't automate, tests rot, and coverage stalls.
Podium Studio removes the gate. You describe what you'd do by hand — tap this, type that, check that this appears — and it runs as a real, deterministic test on a device or in a browser, with screenshots and video as proof. Onboarding is measured in minutes, not weeks.
The goal: a first-day tester ships a working end-to-end test of a complex app — and the whole team's testing gets faster, more repeatable, and far cheaper to maintain.
| How fast they succeed | |
|---|---|
| 🧑🎓 Intern / first job | Writes their first real E2E test in an afternoon — no framework to learn. |
| 🧪 Manual / junior QA | Turns the manual scripts they already run into automated, repeatable checks. |
| 👩💻 Engineer | Skips the boilerplate; gets deterministic runs + full traces to debug fast. |
- ✍️ No-code authoring — plain steps (
tap/type/check), a one-line "what could go wrong?" charter, and nudges that stop you from asserting nothing. - 📱 Deterministic mobile E2E — iOS Simulator + Android via the Podium engine. Same flow, same actions, every run. No AI in the run path.
- 🌐 Real web E2E that actually works — resolves elements across iframes, auto-dismisses cookie/consent overlays, waits intelligently for late content, and taps the real control. (details)
- 🧾 Evidence for every run — per-step before/after screenshots, a full trace, and a video. Failures explain why (overlay / not-found-in-any-frame / timeout), not just "failed".
- 🩹 Self-healing selectors + optional AI-assisted authoring (your key, stored in the OS keychain).
- 🌍 Bilingual UI — English + Vietnamese, layout-safe in both.
- 💻 Local-first desktop app — your tests, data, and secrets never leave your machine.
Try the app: download the trial build from the latest release and open it.
Run from source (Node 22+):
npm install
npm run typecheck # tsc — app + Node bridge
npm test # vitest
npm run tauri:dev # launch the desktop appThen: open a test → author a few steps → pick Simulator or Web in the Run panel → Run, and watch each step turn green with a screenshot. See the Authoring guide.
