T-Plan Game Test Automation vs TopMod QA

T-Plan Game Test Automation automates game tests by interacting with the game’s graphical interface. Image recognition checks objects on screen, so testing does not depend on application code; the vendor says this approach supports games made with Unity and Unreal Engine. The software runs externally without source-code changes or instrumentation. On iOS, it requires two runtime files, but no code changes.

Record and Playback captures test scripts for execution across devices and machines. Users can schedule runs, define workflow rules, and pass custom parameters for decision handling. Listed integrations include Jenkins, GitHub, TestRail, Jira, Eclipse, NetBeans, and REST API access. Supported targets include Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS; the testing page also lists Unix and Solaris. T-Plan Robot starts at £200 per month when billed annually, and a 14-day trial is listed. A Development licence is required before buying Execution licences; five Execution licences permit five live connections at once.

TopMod QA is a paid Windows platform for game QA teams to capture, analyze, and share bugs. It records issues when they first appear, combining game footage, device inputs, and performance data into evidence and reproduction routes. The native application requires no game integration or code changes, and its low memory profile is designed to avoid affecting testing performance. Listed capabilities include test-session recording, performance data, an insights dashboard, collaboration mode, video clipping, crash-data capture, and compatibility profiling. A single view combines test and performance information with a real-time project-testing view. TopMod is presented for PC and console teams working with proprietary or commercial engines. Security information lists TLS encryption in transit, protection at rest where infrastructure supports it, named accounts, role permissions, and single sign-on where purchased and available. Customers retain Customer Data ownership, with export available for 30 days after termination. Pricing is on request, and teams can request a trial.
