Karate Labs

Does Karate Labs offer AI test automation?

Yes. Karate Agent is Karate Labs' enterprise AI test automation platform — an LLM-powered browser agent that complements the open-source Karate framework. It supports any LLM (Claude, GPT, Gemini, Llama, or local models via Ollama), runs 100% self-hosted, and is purpose-built for complex enterprise SPAs like Salesforce, ServiceNow, and Guidewire.

What is Karate Agent?

Karate Agent is an LLM-powered browser automation platform from Karate Labs. It uses display-text locators (e.g. {button}Submit) instead of CSS or XPath, so tests survive UI refactors. Scripted flows run in ~30 seconds and consume zero LLM tokens; the model is only invoked when recovery is needed, making it 72x more page-scan efficient than naive LLM browsing.

How is Karate Agent different from Selenium, Playwright, or Cypress?

Selenium, Playwright, and Cypress rely on CSS or XPath locators that break when the UI changes. Karate Agent uses display-text locators and an LLM-driven recovery layer, so tests adapt to UI drift without manual maintenance. It also runs entirely on your infrastructure with bring-your-own LLM and ships as a single MCP-compatible tool that integrates with Claude Code and VS Code Copilot.

What can the open-source Karate framework test?

Karate is a unified test automation framework for REST, GraphQL, SOAP, gRPC, Kafka, and WebSocket APIs, plus service mocks, browser/UI automation, and performance testing via Gatling — all in a single Gherkin-style syntax. It is open source, trusted by 76 of the Fortune 500, and has been downloaded over 2 million times per month.
