Test automation is essential but often time-consuming. Writing and maintaining tests, generating reliable data, switching tools for API calls, and keeping everything aligned across environments can slow down even the best teams.

The latest updates to Applitools Autonomous, part of the broader Applitools Intelligent Testing Platform, introduce features that significantly reduce this overhead. From natural language test authoring to integrated API testing and deterministic execution, these additions help teams move faster with fewer manual steps. Alongside ongoing improvements to Applitools Eyes, the platform continues to evolve to support modern testing workflows at scale.

New Applitools Autonomous Highlights at a Glance:

• Natural language test creation powered by LLMs
• On-the-fly test data generation
• Enhanced API testing with visual builder
• Deterministic test execution (no LLMs at runtime)
• Upcoming support for mobile apps, IDE integration, and Storybook workflows

Natural Language Test Creation, Powered by LLMs

Instead of writing test steps manually or wrestling with locators, you can now describe your intent in plain English. Applitools Autonomous converts your input into executable test steps.

Autonomous interprets the instruction and adapts to your application’s context. Tests can be created by typing, recording interactions, or letting the system generate steps automatically. This approach makes test authoring more accessible, easier to maintain, and more readable across teams.

On-the-Fly Test Data Generation in Context

Need a specific persona, value range, or edge case? Autonomous now includes built-in test data generation. No external tools required.

Just describe what you need, a French fashion designer or a prime number over 1,000, and the platform generates valid, realistic data at runtime. Datasets are generated ahead of time, so test execution remains fast and predictable.

Enhanced API Testing in the Same Flow

You can now send and validate API requests directly within your test flow, using a Postman-style interface.

Author steps in several ways:

• Describe them in plain English
• Use raw HTTP or cURL
• Use the interactive UI builder

Once executed, responses can be inspected, variables extracted, and values asserted. UI, API, and visual checks all operate in a single environment—no tool switching needed.

Deterministic Execution Model for Reliable AI-Powered Tests

A standout feature of this release is the deterministic execution engine behind every test.

“You don’t need to be a prompt engineer or even a developer to scale automation. But when your test runs, it executes with the speed and reliability of code.”
— Adam Carmi, CTO and Co-founder of Applitools

Unlike some platforms that rely on live LLMs during execution—an approach that can be slow or unpredictable—Applitools separates test creation from test execution.

• LLMs assist during authoring and data generation.
• Test runs are powered by a proprietary deterministic model that ensures speed, stability, and consistent behavior.

This offers the flexibility of AI and the dependability of code, without trade-offs.

What’s Coming Next

Applitools continues to invest in both Autonomous and Eyes, with upcoming features focused on deepening cross-functional collaboration, improving performance, and expanding platform coverage.

For Applitools Autonomous:

• Native mobile app testing: Author and execute tests across devices and operating systems.
• Autonomous MCP server: Translate high-level test cases or BDD scenarios into full test flows.

For Applitools Eyes:

• Eyes MCP server: Move Visual AI directly into your workflow. Maintain, review, and run tests directly from your preferred IDE.
• Visual testing in Storybook: Approve changes directly where components are built.
• Performance improvements for component tests: Shorter pipelines and faster feedback loops.
• Figma collaboration enhancements: Sync designs and visual testing for consistent results.

Where Things Stand Now

Whether you’re building automation for the first time or looking to reduce the overhead of test maintenance, this release meets teams where they are. With natural language authoring, integrated data and API support, and a deterministic execution engine, Applitools helps teams reduce manual effort and work more confidently.

TL;DR — Applitools brings visual, functional, and autonomous testing together in a single AI-powered platform. Backed by 11+ years of refinement and a dataset of 4 billion real-world images, our Visual AI delivers unmatched accuracy and reliability for enterprise-grade software testing.

Testing today isn’t just about coverage—it’s about confidence, speed, and scaling quality across teams. Whether you’re a developer chasing faster feedback, a QA lead reducing maintenance overhead, or a product owner focused on release velocity, Applitools helps modern teams deliver software that looks right, works right, and evolves with ease.

Here’s how Visual, Functional, and Autonomous Testing all come together in one powerful platform.

Trusted Visual AI with Proven Accuracy

Applitools sets the standard in Visual Testing. Our Visual AI engine delivers 99.9999% accuracy, eliminating false positives and catching bugs others miss.

• 5.8x more efficient than pixel-based tools
• Detect both functional and visual bugs in a single test
• Works with all major frameworks: Selenium, Cypress, Playwright, and more

We didn’t just add AI—we’ve spent 11+ years perfecting it.

A Complete Platform for End-to-End Testing

Applitools goes far beyond screenshots. Our Intelligent Testing Platform includes Autonomous Test Creation, Visual Validation, Cross-Browser + Device Testing, and Accessibility Testing—all in one cloud-based solution.
