State of QA · observed across 200+ teams

Your QA stack costs more every quarter it survives.

01 · Tool fragmentation

Five vendors. Zero integration.

Jira for management. Selenium for automation. JMeter for load. Postman for APIs. Custom scripts for data. Five bills, five UIs, no single source of truth. Nothing trustworthy to show leadership.

Cost: 5 vendors · integration debt
02 · Maintenance tax

A 3-pixel button move breaks hundreds of tests.

40–60% of your automation budget is spent fixing tests that were passing yesterday. Before you write a single new test, you’re paying rent on the old ones.

Cost: 40–60% of budget · before net-new
03 · Copilot ceiling

AI that only writes the opening line.

Copilot drafts a test. Who runs it? Heals it next Tuesday? Classifies the failure? Files the defect? Writes the report? Code-generation copilots get you off the blank page, then stop.

Cost: 0% of lifecycle covered
04 · Headcount math

You need 10× the tests. You won’t get 10× the people.

Ship velocity is up and to the right. QA headcount is flat or down. Manual testing has a ceiling, and you’re standing on it. Performance testing alone eats 2–3 days per scenario.

Cost: 10× gap · 2–3 days per perf scenario
The loop · AI-driven

Generate. Execute. Heal.
Analyze. File.

Five beats of an AI-native test lifecycle. Every one used to be somebody's job title. Your team does the one part that matters: set the standard.

Beat 01

Generates.

A requirement goes in. Test cases come out.

Beat 02

Executes.

They run at scale, cloud or local, with a live feed.

Beat 03 · signature

Heals itself.

When the UI shifts, the tests fix themselves and keep running.

Beat 04

Analyzes.

You learn what broke and why, not just that it did.

Beat 05

Files defects.

A pre-filled defect lands in your tracker, ready to triage.

Test automation · the engine

Intent or code. Cloud or local. One engine.

Build tests by intent, by recording, by AI exploration, or in plain code. Run them in the cloud or on your own infrastructure. Every element and reusable module lives in one shared repository.

App Graph · centerpiece

A living map of your entire application.

Crawled by AI, shared across every test. The graph is the single source of truth: every element, page, and flow lives here.

Self-healing · signature

Three tries before we ask the AI.

CSS → a11y role → fuzzy match. If all fail, an LLM reads the live DOM against element history and proposes a heal, with a confidence score.

Performance · the same flows, under load

Your functional tests, now load tests.

Recorded flows convert to k6. AI correlates the tokens, you edit any request in the browser, and every run is judged by statistics, not vibes.

Performance · signature

Statistics decide pass/fail.

Each transaction is gated against a rolling baseline of your own previous runs. A static threshold can't tell drift from noise; the statistical gate can.

Reports · run vs run vs run

Put your runs side by side.

Most load tools show you one run at a time. Ordel's comparison grid puts multiple runs side by side: every transaction a row, every run a column, every cell coloured by drift against the baseline you pick. Flip the metric (avg, p95, p99, throughput, error rate), and a trend sparkline per transaction shows where you're really heading. Promote any run to baseline with a click; the statistical gate re-judges against it.

Data · API · the layers under the ui

Validate the data. Test the pipes.

The data behind every screen gets checked at the source. The APIs underneath get their own suite. Same agent, same graph.

Data · any source, validated there

Compare anything to anything.

Postgres to Excel, MSSQL to an API response. AI reads both schemas and proposes the column mapping; tolerance rules decide what equal means: 2% drift on price is fine, one cent on tax is not. Or just type "ensure no null customer IDs" and the check builds itself. Runs on a local agent next to your databases, so data never leaves your network.

triage · known mismatches baselined · verdicts human-approved
API · the layer under the ui

APIs are tests too.

Build requests by hand or import curl, OpenAPI, Postman collections, or HAR, including the captures your perf recorder already made. Assertions are visual (status, time, JSONPath, schema) with a code escape hatch. Auth profiles (OAuth2, SigV4, mTLS) attach anywhere; secrets live in a vault, never inline.

POST/api/orders/{{orderId}}/confirm
status = 200
time < 800ms
$.payment.state = "settled"
$.body.id → {{orderId}} · feeds the next step
api steps compose into the same test cases + cycles as ui steps

Performance, Data, and API testing are included in Pro. See pricing →

Test management · the ledger

Every artifact, linked.

From requirement to report, every artifact stays bound to the next, and the AI does the work at each step. Your team keeps the ledger honest.

Test cases · signature

Human intent. Machine steps.

One layer reads like a story for stakeholders. The other binds to real elements for the runner. Both stay in sync, automatically.

The trajectory · QA agent → autonomous agent

Today it asks. Soon it acts.

Ordel already runs the QA cycle and waits for your approval. The next releases shrink what needs approval: the agent explores, files, heals, re-runs, and reports. You set the boundaries it works within.

Autonomy · a dial, not a switch

You choose how autonomous, per project.

Orchestration modes already set the register per project and per task. The roadmap extends the dial: the same agent, trusted with more of the loop.

Manual

Now · shipped

One agent across the cycle: generates from requirements, executes, self-heals, analyzes failures, files defects, narrates reports. Every action recorded and one-click revertible: act, notify, revert.

Next · in build

Autonomous exploration of new builds. Defects filed with repro. Heal-and-re-run without a human in the inner loop. The attention feed becomes your only required touchpoint.

MCP · open by design, shipped

Your other agents become teammates.

An MCP server with 50+ tools, live today. Claude, or whatever your team runs, can start cycles, run comparisons, query failure history, file and close defects, pull reports. Your coding agent asks what a PR breaks before it lands.
