What it is
TestBeats brings automated test reporting and test management together, publishing results from testing frameworks and providing AI failure summaries, failure analysis, failure signatures, error clusters, flaky-test detection, and execution trend reports. Teams can also manage manual test cases in version-controlled Gherkin feature files stored in Git and synced through CI/CD. Its integrations span frameworks including Playwright, Cypress, Selenium, JUnit, TestNG, Cucumber, Jest, PyTest, and Robot Framework, among others. Results can be sent to Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Chat, GitHub, InfluxDB, HTTP, and custom targets. The CLI supports npx, npm, downloadable executables, and programmatic JavaScript use; executables are available for Linux, macOS, and Windows. A free plan includes 100 credits for the first 30 days, then 25 per month, and retains results for 30 days. Pro plans start at $18 a month; Enterprise pricing is custom. Credits are consumed by test runs, unique cases, and AI analysis, and reset each billing cycle.
