What you can automate with BugBug

BugBug is a browser-based automated testing tool designed for teams that want reliable end-to-end tests without writing code. It records user interactions directly in the browser and converts them into repeatable test scenarios. This makes it accessible to QA testers, product managers, and developers alike — anyone who can click through a workflow can build a test for it. What sets BugBug apart from heavier testing frameworks is its simplicity. There’s no need to set up Selenium grids or manage complex test infrastructure. Tests run in the cloud on real browsers, and you can schedule them to execute on a regular cadence or trigger them via API as part of your deployment pipeline. When something breaks, BugBug captures screenshots and logs so your team can pinpoint the issue quickly. At Osher Digital, we often see organisations waste hours on manual regression testing before each release. Our business automation specialists can help you set up BugBug alongside your existing workflows, triggering test runs automatically when new code is deployed. Combined with our system integrations work, test failures can route directly to Slack, email, or your project management tool. BugBug works well for web applications of all sizes, but it’s particularly valuable for teams that have outgrown manual testing but aren’t ready to invest in a full-blown test engineering function. Our AI consultants can also help identify which workflows to prioritise for automation based on risk and frequency of change.

BugBug FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about how BugBug consultants can help with integration and implementation

No. BugBug uses a visual recorder that captures your clicks, form inputs, and navigation steps directly in the browser. You build tests by performing the actions you want to verify, and BugBug converts them into automated test scripts. You can add assertions and conditional logic through the visual interface.

Yes. You can schedule test suites to run at specific intervals — hourly, daily, or weekly. This is useful for monitoring critical user journeys on production environments and catching regressions before your users report them.

BugBug is significantly easier to set up and maintain than Selenium-based frameworks. The trade-off is that Selenium offers more flexibility for complex custom test logic. BugBug targets teams that want fast, reliable coverage without the overhead of managing test infrastructure and writing code.

Yes. BugBug provides an API and CLI tool that you can incorporate into Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, and other pipeline platforms. Test results are returned in standard formats so they can be processed by your existing reporting tools.

BugBug captures a screenshot at the point of failure along with detailed step-by-step logs showing what happened during the test run. You can also configure notifications to alert your team via email or webhook when a test suite fails.

Yes. BugBug handles dynamic content, AJAX requests, and client-side routing well. It includes smart waiting mechanisms that pause test execution until elements are ready, which addresses the most common challenge when testing modern JavaScript-heavy applications.

How it works

Implementing BugBug

Step 1

Install the BugBug Browser Extension

Add the BugBug Chrome extension to your browser. This extension powers the visual test recorder and allows you to build tests by interacting with your application normally.

Step 2

Record Your First Test

Navigate to the page you want to test and start the recorder. Perform the user journey you want to automate — clicking buttons, filling forms, navigating between pages. BugBug captures each step automatically.

Step 3

Add Assertions and Checks

After recording, add verification steps to confirm your application behaves correctly. Check that specific text appears, elements are visible, URLs change as expected, or form submissions produce the right outcome.

Step 4

Organise Tests into Suites

Group related tests into test suites based on feature areas or user journeys. This makes it easier to run targeted subsets of your tests and keep your test library manageable as it grows.

Step 5

Schedule or Trigger Runs

Set up automated schedules for your test suites or configure API triggers so tests run as part of your deployment process. Choose whether tests run in BugBug's cloud or on your own infrastructure.

Step 6

Monitor Results and Fix Failures

Review test results in the BugBug dashboard after each run. Investigate failures using the provided screenshots and logs, then update tests or fix application bugs as needed to maintain a green test suite.
