In their own words
testRigor
testRigor uses generative AI to create and run software tests written in plain English. It can generate tests from documented cases, and users can revise or build tests with natural-language instructions. Web testing covers more than 3,000 browser and device combinations across multiple operating systems; the product also supports native and hybrid mobile testing, physical devices through partners, and native desktop testing. Its scope includes API testing and mocking, email and two-factor authentication checks, SMS and phone-call validation, data-driven tests, and downloaded-file checks. Listed integrations include Jira, TestRail, Zephyr, XRay, GitLab, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, CircleCI, Azure DevOps, BrowserStack, LambdaTest, and Twilio. The free plan allows unlimited test cases, but tests and results are public and shareable by unique URL. A Private Linux Chrome plan starts at $300 a month, and a 14-day trial is listed. testRigor says it does not test games. Its Trust Center lists GDPR, HIPAA, ISO/IEC 27001, and SOC 2 Type 2 compliance resources; accessing reports requires signing an MNDA.
