Testing Capabilities

Pie offers a comprehensive suite of automated tests designed to cover your application from end to end. With over 25 distinct test types, our AI can autonomously achieve up to 80% E2E test coverage for most apps, right out of the box. Explore the full range of our automated testing capabilities in the table below.

Table: Pie’s Automated Test Types

Category	Test Type	Description
Discovery & Exploration	Automatic App Crawling	Systematically discovers all screens, features, and hidden functionalities to build a comprehensive map of the application.
	Dynamic Element Detection	Identifies all interactive UI elements, including buttons, forms, dropdowns, modals, and tooltips.
	User Path Mapping	Documents all possible user journeys and navigation flows to understand how a user interacts with the app from start to finish.
	Feature Prioritization	Automatically ranks application features based on their inferred criticality and usage patterns to focus testing on high-impact areas.
Functional Testing	Form Validation & Submission	Verifies multi-step forms, input validation (e.g., email format, required fields), and correct error state handling.
	Authentication & Authorization	Tests login/logout flows, session validity, password resets, OTPs, and role-based access controls to ensure secure user access.
	Data CRUD Operations	Validates Create, Read, Update, and Delete functionality to ensure data is handled correctly throughout the application.
	File Upload/Download	Confirms that users can successfully upload and download files and that the application handles different file types and sizes correctly.
	Payment & Checkout Flows	Tests the entire transaction process, including adding items to a cart, applying discounts, processing payments, and confirming orders.
UI/UX & Visual Testing	Visual Regression Testing	Compares screenshots of the UI against a baseline to detect unintended visual changes in layout, color, or element alignment.
	Cross-Browser Compatibility	Checks for rendering differences and functional consistency across major web browsers like Chrome, Firefox, and Safari.
	Mobile Responsiveness	Verifies that the application’s layout and functionality adapt correctly to different screen sizes, orientations, and viewports.
	Loading Performance	Monitors the application for appropriate loading indicators (e.g., spinners, skeleton screens) and handles timeout conditions gracefully.
	Error Message Clarity	Ensures that error messages are user-friendly, informative, and provide clear instructions for recovery.
	Interactive Element Feedback	Validates that interactive elements provide clear visual feedback to the user, such as hover states, click effects, and loading indicators.
Advanced Capabilities	Third-Party Integrations	Tests integrations with external services, including OAuth login flows, API callbacks, and embedded widgets.
	Complex Business Logic	Validates sophisticated conditional workflows, rule engines, and complex calculations to ensure they produce the correct outcomes.
	Dashboard & Analytics	Verifies the accuracy of data visualizations, charts, and report generation features.
	Scheduling & Calendar	Tests features involving booking, appointments, availability checks, and time-zone handling.
	AI-Powered Features	Validates the functionality of integrated AI features, such as chatbots, recommendation engines, and other AI-driven workflows.
	Custom File Handling	Allows you to upload specific files (e.g., test data) for the AI agent to use during test execution.
Custom & Strategic Tests	Edge Case Testing	Probes the application with boundary values, special characters, and extreme data inputs to uncover hidden bugs.
	Negative Testing	Intentionally provides invalid inputs or performs unauthorized actions to verify that the system handles errors gracefully and securely.
	Automated Regression Suites	Automatically runs a comprehensive suite of tests on every new build to ensure that recent changes have not broken existing functionality.
	Smoke Testing	Executes a quick set of tests on the most critical application paths after a deployment to verify that the build is stable.
	A/B Testing Validation	Checks the behavior of different application variants under feature flags to ensure consistency and proper functionality for all user segments.
