Feature Overview

Datadog Continuous Testing offers a set of DevOps tools that enable you to automate software testing for a product’s entire lifecycle. By offering code-free and reliable end-to-end automated testing and integrating seamlessly with popular CI providers and collaboration tools, Continuous Testing helps you accelerate application development and ship high-quality features faster.

Test with ease and speed

Use automation to accelerate application testing and stop wasting engineering resources with the need to build, run, and maintain hand-coded tests
Shift development left and implement testing as part of the Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery process
Save QA effort through time-saving and highly scalable features, such as a codeless web recorder, parallel test runs, and built-in multi-location testing
Test even earlier and across every level of your application stack, thanks to broad support for diverse protocols, frameworks, and APIs—including gRPC and WebSockets

Improve test reliability

Stay focused on building software through our resilient, scalable, and codeless tests that eliminate the burden of implementing test code
Gain confidence in your test results by minimizing false positives through self-healing browser tests and automatic test retries
Automate cross-browser testing to easily ensure the best end-user experience

Increase efficiency through seamless integrations

Fast-track your application development by testing and troubleshooting on the same unified platform
Use integrations with popular CI providers (GitHub, GitLab, Jenkins, CircleCI, Azure DevOps) and collaboration tools (Slack, Jira) to merge workflows and avoid context-switching
Gain unified control over test creation and state management with the Datadog Terraform provider

Accelerate troubleshooting

Quickly find the root cause of failed test runs and reduce MTTR by performing tests within a unified monitoring platform
Gain the full context for troubleshooting—without switching between tools—through correlated metrics, traces, and logs surfaced by Datadog APM integration
Enable developers to ‘shift left’ and implement testing as part of the CI/CD process, helping improve efficiency, release velocity, and business agility
