Waldo Reviews & Product Details

I'm just being tested out but I like it already because it's different than the usual ones that I've tried Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Downside for when you first search for Waldo is that it goes to the old where's Waldo picture find Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Waldo’s technology is unlike any other that we have used before. Waldo tests our app from a real user's perspective, making it less sensitive to UI changes. Waldo can find elements even if they change position, ID or size, allowing tests to complete successfully more often, even if there are changes to the UI that move the elements around slightly. This means that our tests pass more often, and their Assertion feature lets us know when Waldo has found changes that did not keep the test from running but likely need to be reviewed. Waldo even has a flakiness result, so we know if a test is flaky and can update it. We have also been able to use advanced features, including deep linking, and branches, which allows us to run test suites on our PRs before we merge to main.

As with any young company, the product continues to evolve and change (for the better!) but sometimes, that requires us to rethink how we use Waldo, even if it is for the better. We have occasionally had issues with the execution speed of our test suits, but the Waldo team has worked with us to help come up with ways both our team and theirs can help improve the speed of our tests.

Waldo is the most complete and reliable mobile testing technology on the market. It has changed how our engineers are involved in the testing process. Our developers now test earlier in the development process and can be responsible for finding and fixing bugs before they merge code. This creates a greater confidence throughout the organization about app releases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are certain edge cases that are hard to test with Waldo. This is not Waldo’s fault but there is always part of you that wishes you could automate all your tests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ease of use when it comes to recording tests. And their support team is A+. We have a slack channel with them, and they actively reach out with tips on improving our test suite + overall testing process for a better experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In a typical code-first testing approach, tests are updated alongside code updates to ensure the test suite is always passing in the main branch. With a no-code system, we push new code and only update outdated tests once they break after merging the new code. Waldo has features to help mitigate this, but we've found it easier to let old tests fail once the new code gets merged and then update them once we get notified through their slack integration.

Waldo’s technology has changed the way that we build and release our mobile app. Instead of spending lots of time doing manual testing, where we are likely to miss errors, we now use Waldo to test at scale. The replay engine is very flexible and, in comparison to scripting, actually tests the app like a human would without predetermined steps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As with any new developer tool, there is a learning curve to using it but the Waldo team is responsive and always willing to help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Waldo saves us a ton of time and reduces the risk of regressions by automating end-to-end tests for our telehealth app. It's magic, and the product and team keep getting better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

End-to-end tests are slow, especially on mobile. Can't blame Waldo for that, though. They have made it possible to get feedback from the tests faster and sooner, and it's faster and more reliable (not to mention cheaper!) than manual regression testing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Waldo’s platform is extremely easy to use and very powerful. Everyone in our mobile team (technical hands-on or not) is able to efficiently create and run end-to-end mobile tests to ensure we have a higher quality application. Their product is the most robust solution on the market and they have an incredible customer service team that is helpful and willing to listen to customer feedback. We are excited about what the future holds for us with Waldo. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We would love it if Waldo could support the testing of our desktop frontend applications as well because the platform is really good. Additionally, as with any premium product, the cost is higher than other solutions on the market. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Waldo helps us move faster by giving us confidence that our core flows are working every time we deploy our app. There's lots to rave about with Waldo, but here's what stands out most:

- it was trivial to introduce into our deployment pipeline

- their test builder is super easy to use

- we rarely experience flakey tests

- their team is highly responsive and very receptive to feedback

- they're constantly shipping improvements to the product, giving me confidence that they'll continue to support us as we grow Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are very few downsides to using Waldo. Their product solves the problem very well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's super easy to use, and it's pretty easy to maintain. The team is responsive to support, and they're making frequen product improvements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Unexpected Waldo bugs can have outsized negative impacts on your integration, and there are still lots of tools & improvements needed for managing your integration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Maintaining our end-to-end test suite go way easier and we ship with a lot more confidence since using Waldo. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing comes to mind. The team at Waldo was always quick to respond to any issue/question we had. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
