Holmes
Automating software testing in the AI era.
About
Holmes is an autonomous quality assurance (QA) platform that learns how people use a product, tests those flows continuously, and runs inside the tools development teams already use. It is designed for teams shipping at AI speed and aims to catch problems before they reach users by automating the QA process, which has become a bottleneck. Unlike traditional testing tools that rely on manual test writing, Holmes learns user journeys and creates automated tests that verify these journeys continuously, even as the product evolves.
