VIVIDUS – your first and last stop for Codeless Test Automation
summary
VIVIDUS is a free open source, Apache License 2.0 codeless automation framework that runs tests written as high‑level actions without programming, with a plugin architecture for web, REST, databases and visual testing. Demo shows tests executing from a generated project, CI integration, built‑in reporting and screenshots, and a surprising assertion: 42 vs 41 job openings exposed by an expected value mismatch. It supports parallel threads via a single property, but is not intended for low‑level unit, high‑volume performance, or niche proprietary protocols.
