Spec score 8.7 #3 of 25 in Cross-Browser Testing Software

What it is

Aerokube Moon runs browser automation sessions inside a customer-managed Kubernetes or OpenShift cluster. It supports Selenium, Cypress, Playwright, and Puppeteer, with Selenium compatibility based on the W3C WebDriver specification and standard capabilities. Browser capacity depends on the cluster, while the license sets concurrent sessions. Without a license key, Moon allows up to four parallel browser sessions for unlimited use. A paid license costs $5 a month for each parallel session, scaling with the number of concurrent sessions. Aerokube recommends Helm installation. The interface lists and filters running sessions, displays browser screens, and launches sessions for manual testing. Optional features include video recording, mobile emulation, clipboard access, file transfer, and developer tools. Moon can capture network activity as HAR and upload it to S3 when configured. It exposes Prometheus metrics, including running sessions and session limits. Moon 2.x has no built-in authentication by default; ingress authentication or sidecars are described.
