# Repeato

> No-code mobile and web UI test automation tool that uses computer vision and machine learning to record, run, and manage tests for iOS, Android, and web apps.

Repeato is a no-code test automation tool built for mobile and web applications, created by Stephan Petzl, a former CTO with a long background in software development. It lets testers and developers record UI tests on physical devices or simulators without writing code, then organize and run those tests as batches to catch regressions before each release. The tool is actively maintained and available as a desktop application for macOS, Windows, and Linux.

## What It Is

Repeato Studio is a regression testing tool that records and replays UI interactions on Android, iOS, and web apps. Instead of relying on the underlying DOM structure or element selectors, Repeato uses computer vision and machine learning algorithms to identify UI elements — making tests more resilient to UI changes. It supports a wide range of app frameworks including Flutter, React Native, Xamarin, and Unreal Engine, and can run tests on physical devices, emulators, simulators, or cloud devices.

## How the No-Code Workflow Works

The core workflow follows a record-organize-run loop:

- **Record**: Connect a device or simulator, hit record, and interact with your app. All input actions are captured automatically and saved to a test library.
- **Organize**: Tests can be grouped into folders and batches. An intuitive UI helps structure the library and find tests quickly.
- **Run**: Select a batch and hit "Run." Repeato executes all tests, optimizes timing using its computer vision engine, and reports which tests passed or failed.
- **Debug**: Test run exports and PDF reports can be pushed directly into bug tracking systems. A Jira integration is available on higher tiers.

Tests can also be edited after recording — steps can be copied, pasted, cut, and reordered using standard keyboard shortcuts.

## AI Vision and Assertion Methods

Repeato offers three ways to assert UI elements during a test:

- **Fingerprint**: Pixel-level image matching for stable UI elements.
- **Text/Numbers**: Text-based assertions for dynamic content.
- **AI Vision**: Uses computer vision to check dynamic or changing UI elements, with a monthly assertion quota depending on the plan.

The AI vision capability is described on the Repeato site as using "computer vision and machine learning algorithms" to enable robust test execution without requiring element locators or selectors.

## CI/CD and Headless Execution

Repeato includes a CLI headless test runner that allows tests to be triggered from continuous integration pipelines. The documentation lists support for GitHub Actions, Bitrise, CircleCI, and Codemagic, as well as self-hosted servers. This makes it possible to run the full test suite on every pull request without manual intervention. The Enterprise tier adds full continuous integration support and project workspaces for team collaboration.

## Target Audience and Accessibility

Repeato is explicitly designed for non-technical users — QA analysts, manual testers, and teams without dedicated automation engineers. The About page notes the tool was built by "software folks, for software folks," with a focus on simplicity. User reviews on G2 (quoted on the Repeato homepage) highlight that testers with no coding background were able to set up and run tests within minutes. JavaScript commands are also supported for users who want to extend tests with custom scripts.

## Deployment and Infrastructure

Repeato Studio runs locally on the tester's machine and connects to physical devices or simulators. Both Repeato Studio and the Repeato CLI can run completely isolated on a team's own infrastructure, which the FAQ page notes is an option for teams with strict data security requirements. The company is based in Vienna, Austria, and states it operates under GDPR. Repeato participates in the Stripe Climate program, contributing 1% of each purchase to carbon removal.
