About AppraiseJS

AppraiseJS is a local-first platform for creating, managing, and running automated tests with a visual workflow.

• Visual-first authoring: build test scenarios without writing framework glue code.
• No-code and production-ready: compose robust test flows through reusable building blocks.
• Portable artifacts: generate standards-based assets such as Gherkin and Playwright-friendly outputs.
• Fast onboarding: start quickly with sensible defaults and minimal setup overhead.
• Shared workflow: QA, manual testers, and developers collaborate in one place.

Documentation

Project documentation has moved to appraisejs.dev.
