QA Automation (AI)

No-code test recording for web apps, APIs, and TN3270 mainframe sessions — with Demo Studio built in.

QA Automation (AI)

Record web apps, REST/GraphQL APIs, and TN3270 mainframe sessions. Auto-generate a full regression suite and replay it on every deploy — no test code to write, no Selenium to maintain. Includes Demo Studio for converting recordings into stakeholder presentations.

Recording targets

TargetProtocolNotes
Web applicationsHTTP/HTTPSReact, Vue, Angular, or any HTML app
REST APIsHTTP/HTTPSJSON and XML payloads
GraphQL APIsHTTP/HTTPSQuery and mutation recording
Mainframe sessionsTN3270CICS, IMS, TSO — full screen-by-screen capture

How recording works

  1. Install the QuickCloud browser extension (Chrome/Edge) or point the TN3270 proxy at your terminal emulator
  2. Perform your workflow normally — login, navigate, submit forms, check outputs
  3. QuickCloud captures every interaction, field value, assertion point, and network call
  4. A regression test is generated automatically — no code required

Test replay

Recorded tests run via Playwright (not Selenium). Each replay:

  • Re-executes every interaction in order
  • Validates field values, page content, and API responses against recorded baselines
  • Captures a visual screenshot at each step
  • Reports pass/fail per step with a diff if values changed

Replay on every deploy by connecting to your CI/CD pipeline:

# GitHub Actions example
- name: Run QuickCloud regression suite
  uses: quickcloud/qa-action@v1
  with:
    api-key: ${{ secrets.QUICKCLOUD_API_KEY }}
    suite-id: your-suite-id

Visual regression testing

QuickCloud compares screenshots pixel-by-pixel between runs and reports a similarity score. You set the threshold (e.g. 98%) — anything below it fails the build.

AI-powered field mapping

When migrating from a mainframe to a web UI, the AI field mapper identifies corresponding fields across the old and new interfaces and validates that values match after migration — without you writing any mapping rules.

Auto-generated Gherkin / BDD specs

Every recorded test exports a human-readable Gherkin specification:

Feature: Customer account lookup

  Scenario: Look up account by ID
    Given I am on the account search screen
    When I enter "A123456" in the Account ID field
    And I press Enter
    Then the account name "ACME CORP" is displayed
    And the balance field shows "1,482.50"

These can be committed to your repo and used as living documentation.

Demo Studio

Demo Studio converts any recording into a polished stakeholder presentation — no video editing or screen capture tools required.

Output formatUse case
Interactive HTML5Browser-based walkthrough with click-through navigation
MP4 videoAsynchronous stakeholder review, sales demos
Auto-generated speaker notesStep-by-step narration for each screen

Demo Studio is included in every QA Automation (AI) subscription at no extra cost.
