Sponsored by Businesswire

Datadog, the leading monitoring and analytics platform for modern cloud
environments, today announced the general availability of Browser Tests,
a software test automation platform designed for agile application
development teams. Datadog Browser Tests run continuously and adjust
automatically to catch bugs when the website changes.

“Broken web applications can result in massive revenue and productivity
losses for modern enterprises. And yet, because of the time required to
write and update proper tests, agile development teams often trade deep
testing for quick application releases,” said Gabriel-James Safar,
Product Manager at Datadog. “Datadog’s Browser Tests are created in
minutes and self-adjust as an application changes, which means bugs are
caught before real users see them. Furthermore, deep integration with
Datadog’s monitoring and analytics platform makes it quick for
development teams to understand and fix the underlying issue.”

Browser Tests Features:

  • Record user interactions and workflow tests without any coding
  • Tests adjust themselves as an application changes without manual
    intervention
  • Fully integrated with Datadog’s monitoring and analytics platform for
    end-to-end troubleshooting

“Datadog’s Browser Tests have been a game-changer in our website release
process,” said Ben Odom, Director of Technical Operations at Peerfit.
“Not only are the tests very easy to create, but they are also
self-maintaining – saving us hours previously spent on tedious script
updates, and minimizing all of the false alerts we previously received
due to broken tests.”

“Being able to make browser monitoring a seamless process for customers
has always been a challenge,” said Michael Azzoff, Distinguished
Analyst, Infrastructure Solutions at Ovum. “With use of machine learning
Datadog is at the innovation edge in monitoring, and with the
combination of synthetic performance testing and analytics its approach
is superior to traditional coding methods for browser monitoring.”

Datadog Browser Tests is generally available. Pricing starts at $12 per
1,000 Test Runs. For more information, and to start a free 14-day trial,
