Test Automation for IT & Software Organizations

Faster releases, fewer flaky UI tests: With Drvless, IT teams can add robust, GUI-based, end-to-end automation to their toolchain – without having to write all the tests in code. Drvless executes processes via the user interface, making it particularly stable during ongoing UI changes.

Challenges in IT Teams

IT organizations are delivering more frequently and coordinating multiple technologies, teams, and products. At the same time, traditional UI testing quickly becomes maintenance-intensive when changes are made to the frontend, slowing down releases. Additionally, they often lack the time and resources to continuously maintain large end-to-end suites in code.

UI changes become a maintenance bottleneck.

When HTML, layout, or UI flows change frequently, classic UI tests become expensive to maintain – regression becomes a bottleneck.

Tool proliferation & handovers

QA, Dev, specialist departments and Operations work with different tools and priorities – end-to-end quality often falls between responsibilities.

Time and resource scarcity

Not every team has enough automation engineers to permanently maintain extensive E2E suites in code.

Our solution for IT organizations

Drvless is GUI-based: Everything visible to the human eye can be controlled. This allows for the securing of realistic end-to-end processes – even without backend code access and without invasive integrations.

No programming knowledge required

Create automation scenarios using drag-and-drop in a visual editor. Alternatively, automation scenarios can be described in natural language and converted into the Drvless Graphical Language. This allows specialist departments to actively contribute.

Technology and platform independent

Drvless is independent of the technology of the system being tested: The same automation runs on MS Windows, macOS, Unix, etc. Furthermore, desktop, mobile, and tablet applications are covered by the same automation scenario.

Safe and flexible to use

Drvless requires no installation on the System Under Automation (SUA). Instead, a CCDevice can be connected or CCSoftware can be run to start it. This helps comply with security restrictions and allows for direct deployment in production or safety-critical environments.

Drvless saves us a tremendous amount of time and frees our team from routine tasks. The tests run stably and reliably.

Typical Use Cases

With Drvless you can, among other things:

Automate E2E smoke tests across multiple systems (portal → back office).
Stabilize regression for critical customer journeys
Automate legacy UI processes that are difficult to test using code.
Build reusable UI building blocks for multiple products/teams
Securing production-related monitoring/runbook flows via UI

Driveless offers, among other things, the following advantages:

More end-to-end coverage, even where multiple systems interact and pure API tests leave gaps.
Less maintenance is required because Drvless executes the visible processes like users do, and therefore remains more stable during UI/HTML changes.
Faster feedback for releases and hotfixes because regression, as a repeatable process, can be executed at any time.
Less dependence on automation engineers, because non-experts can also create test cases via drag-and-drop or in natural language.
Faster scaling across device classes - the same automation scenario covers desktop, mobile and tablet applications.
