What QA Wolf does
QA Wolf is a testing platform that maps your app's workflows, writes and runs end-to-end tests for web and mobile apps with parallel execution, and investigates failures. You can use the self-serve Platform or buy Coverage as a Service, where QA Wolf's team builds and maintains the tests for you.
- Platform: you automate and maintain tests with its AI and infrastructure.
- Coverage as a Service: its team creates, runs, investigates and maintains your suite.
- Web apps on Chrome, Firefox and WebKit; runs triggered manually, on a schedule or by deploy webhook.
- CI integration via API or webhook.
Best-fit jobs

Setup effort: Medium
Point it at a staging environment with test accounts, start with your most important flows, and wire runs into CI. Coverage as a Service moves most of this effort to the vendor.
Pricing explained
- The Platform costs 1 cent per AI credit and 15 cents per runner minute. There are no per-seat fees, and you can try it for free.
- Coverage as a Service is fully managed and priced by the number of tests under management; contact the vendor for a quote.
- Because pricing is usage-based, adding users does not raise the bill, but heavy test runs and AI use will.
