This table is inspiring and helpful when consider cost for implementation of testing solution. Usually I use Selenium, it's more than testing logic, but also the cost of setting and managing an infrastructure to run the automated test scheme. Thanks for providing a bigger picture for a tester to think about what a boss thinks about.

I agree having a comparison chart like this definitely helps to know the advantages and disadvantages. Also, in case you were curious to know more about Testim, I would highly recommend checking out this blog post which discusses the different aspects of the tool - blog.testim.io/why-testim/

Hi Klaus, first of all, I read some of your comments and threads, you are doing a valuable contribution to the software community. Thanks for that.

Secondly, I just wanted to mention that this is a great post showing the tool comparisons based on different parameters. But one thing to note here is-

  1. Testim does support real browsers on Linux and Windows machines and also Mobile Web and Native app testing on both iOS/Android. In fact, Testim is the only AI testing platform to support mobile native app automation.

  2. Not sure what you meant by "Drive" here, so cannot comment on that.

Keep up the great work.
