Testpad

About

Testpad is a web-app for writing and running test plans. It takes a refreshingly simple approach that makes it really fast to write, run and maintain tests.

You can install it here as a Chrome Web App or you can visit the home page (https://ontestpad.com) and use it like a normal web app.


PERFECT FOR AGILE DEVELOPMENT

Testpad is for:
- engineers who want a pragmatic solution to product testing;
- testers in startups who know they can do better than spreadsheets;
- professional testers shackled by managing test cases one form at a time.


FREE STARTER PLAN

To try Testpad, launch the app and sign-up for an account on the free starter plan. The starter plan is fully functional except that it's limited to 1 user and 5 test scripts.

Testpad has simple import and export features that make it really quick to give it a try with real data. E.g. You can use the Import Dialog to copy and paste a test script straight from a spreadsheet.

As and when you need more than 1 user or 5 scripts, you can choose from one of the paid plans. Get in touch with [email protected] if you would like to discuss your trial requirements.


FEATURES

- Checklist style case-editing

Test cases are one-line prompts of what to test, organised in an outline editor. It's easy to write, re-write, chop and change; perfect for keeping up with agile product development

- Feels like a native app

Intuitive keyboard control and auto-save as you go means you spend less time reaching for the mouse and more time improving coverage. Write hundreds of tests in minutes.

- Invite 'guest' testers by email

Organise who tests what, when. Delegate testing to co-workers, or invite guest testers by email. Great for ad-hoc out-sourcing.

- Mobile and Tablet Friendly

Free up your big screen! Run tests on your nearest iPad, iPhone or smart phone. Why switch between windows when there's a spare input device on your desk?

- Library of example test scripts

Look for inspiration in our growing library of examples. Import and use as templates of your own.

- Build your own templates

Save common patterns as templates of your own and have more confidence that your new products have got all the bases covered.

- Rich reporting

Track the latest progress with live links to interactive reports. Print a snapshot and leave it on your boss's desk or email to clients.

- Simple tagging and filtering

Assign tags to groups of tests and selectively include or exclude them from test runs.

- Easy in

Copy and paste direct from Excel, Word or any plain-text file. Testpad makes it easy to edit and re-structure imported tests.

- Easy out

Simple export of scripts and results as CSV means it's easy to get your data out of Testpad for analysis in other tools.
