Powerful Features Built for Scale
Guardian combines distributed test execution, intelligent orchestration, and real-time debugging into one platform.
Core Capabilities
Everything needed for enterprise-grade test automation
Distributed Test Execution
Guardian automatically distributes tests across parallel Kubernetes pods. Tests that took 30 minutes now complete in 3-5 minutes with automatic sharding and load balancing.
Live VNC Debugging
Connect to running tests in real-time via VNC. Step through actions, inspect elements, modify selectors, and fix issues instantly without re-running tests.
Full Test Recording
Every test is automatically recorded with videos, screenshots, and DOM traces. Replay exactly what happened during test execution for instant debugging.
Test Orchestration
Coordinator service manages test workflows, retries failed tests with backoff, and handles complex test dependencies and sequences.
CI/CD Ready
Drop-in integrations for GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, and CircleCI. Pass/fail on test results, block deployments on failures.
Multi-Tenant
Complete isolation between tenants. Role-based access control, separate data storage, and audit logging for compliance.
Performance at Scale
Playwright tests optimized for speed and reliability. Guardian's Executor service spawns ephemeral Kubernetes pods that run tests independently and report results in real-time.
50 tests: 2-3 minutes
Distributed across 3 pods at 15-20 tests each
100 tests: 2-3 minutes
Distributed across 6-8 pods with auto-sharding
250 tests: 3-4 minutes
Distributed across 15-20 pods, per-pod monitoring
<100ms API latency
P95 response time across all endpoints
Faster Execution
vs Sequential Runs
Average across all test sizes
Real-time Debugging
VNC access to live test execution
Interactive Live Debugging
Connect to any running test in real-time. Inspect the DOM, modify selectors, step through actions, and debug failures instantly without waiting for test reruns.
VNC Session
Full browser control during test execution
Element Inspector
Hover to inspect elements and see live CSS
Step Control
Pause, step, and modify selectors on the fly
Console Access
Execute JavaScript and view console logs
Enterprise Security
Guardian is built with security and compliance as first-class citizens. Full audit trails, data encryption, role-based access, and regular security audits.
SOC 2 Type II
Annual security audit and compliance certification
AES-256 Encryption
All data encrypted in transit and at rest
Audit Logs
Complete trail of all user actions and system events
RBAC
Granular role-based access control per tenant
Enterprise Grade
Security certified & audited
