What is Magnitude
Magnitude is an open-source end-to-end testing framework driven by visual AI Agents. Magnitude builds test cases based on natural language, uses powerful reasoning agents to plan and adjust the testing process, and executes tests based on fast visual agents. Magnitude supports local running and CI/CD pipeline integration, and provides hosted services, including hosted browser infrastructure and LLM infrastructure, simplifying test management. Magnitude helps developers efficiently test web applications and ensure application quality.
Magnitude's main features
- Natural language test writing: Describe test steps and checkpoints based on natural language, lowering the threshold for testing.
- Intelligent reasoning and visual execution: Reasoning agents dynamically adjust testing strategies, and visual agents reliably execute tests.
- Flexible running options: Supports local running, CI/CD integration, and hosted services, meeting various testing needs.
- Hosted and self-hosted: Provides hosted services to simplify management, and supports self-hosting to meet privacy and customization needs.
- Test management and visualization: Manage test cases through the console, and view test results and history.
Magnitude's technical principles
- Visual AI agents: Computer vision technology recognizes and understands web interface elements. Based on visual models, Magnitude can "see" changes in the interface, such as changes in button positions, updates to text content, etc. Visual agents match interface elements with descriptions in test cases to ensure testing accuracy.
- Reasoning and planning models: Natural language processing (NLP) technology parses natural language descriptions in test cases and converts them into executable test steps. Reasoning agents adjust test plans in real time according to dynamic changes in the application interface, ensuring tests adapt to interface updates.
- Data-driven test execution: Data in test cases (such as usernames, passwords, etc.) can be flexibly configured, supporting secure storage and use of sensitive data. During test execution, visual agents and reasoning agents work together to ensure accurate execution of test steps.
- Flexibility of hosted and self-hosted: Hosted services provide browser and LLM infrastructure based on a cloud platform, so users do not need to set up the environment themselves. The self-hosted mode supports developers using their own infrastructure to interact with Magnitude's core agents through APIs, meeting needs for data privacy and customization.
