CodeceptJS vs Kameleo

CodeceptJS is an end-to-end testing framework for describing tests as readable sequences of user actions. It works with Playwright, WebDriver, Puppeteer, and Appium, giving teams multiple test engines to choose from. The Playwright helper supports Chromium, Firefox, WebKit, and Electron; native iOS and Android testing is described through Appium and WebDriverIO. Built-in REST and GraphQL helpers cover API testing without a browser. Teams can organize tests with page objects, data fixtures, and plugins. The homepage describes live test debugging through an MCP server for agents and AI-assisted selector repair. Test output includes step-by-step details and automatic screenshots, and WebDriver tests can run on remote or cloud grids such as Sauce Labs, BrowserStack, and LambdaTest. CodeceptJS is free, open source, and MIT licensed. The installation guide says version 4.2 requires Node.js 22.12 or newer. It supports Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, Windows, web, API, and self-hosted contexts.

Kameleo is an anti-detect browser for web scraping, browser automation, and managing multiple accounts. Its Chroma and Junglefox browsers mask fingerprints for Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari profiles, and desktop use can emulate Android and iOS browser behavior. Automation can run through Selenium, Puppeteer, or Playwright scripts, or through a Local API with Python, JavaScript, and C# SDKs. Profiles can use HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS5, and SSH proxies. Local profiles are unlimited; the Free plan includes 100 cloud profiles, while paid plans include at least 5,000. Paid plans also include unlimited team seats and role-based access for cloud profiles. Official Docker images are available for Linux and Windows containers. The Free plan is €0.00 per free and includes two concurrent browsers, 300 minutes of browser usage, two emulated mobile browsers, and three team members. Startup (annual) is €45.00 per year; Startup (monthly) is €59.00 per month.
