Testim was one of the first test tools to sell AI locators that heal themselves. Four years after Tricentis bought it, it is the lighter, SaaS door into the Tricentis ecosystem.
Key Takeaways
- Part of Tricentis since 2022. — Tricentis acquired Testim in February 2022. It is sold as Tricentis Testim in web, mobile and Salesforce editions.
- Self-healing locators plus agents. — AI locators find elements and self-heal; Tricentis's agentic test automation builds tests from plain-language descriptions; Testim Copilot writes custom JavaScript steps.
- Easy to try, quote to buy. — Sign-up is free; paid prices are not published.
What does Testim do?
Testim records user flows and lets testers refine them in a visual, low-code editor. Its AI-powered locators identify web, mobile and Salesforce elements and self-heal when the app changes. Root cause analysis, TestOps for managing suites and cross-browser runs on Testim's grid or a Selenium grid round it out (Tricentis).
Since the acquisition it has picked up Tricentis's agentic test automation, which builds complete tests from a plain-language description, including Salesforce tests, and Testim Copilot, which writes custom JavaScript steps from a description.

Yes. Testim is sold by Tricentis as Tricentis Testim, with editions for web, mobile and Salesforce, and a free sign-up to evaluate it.
What is Testim Copilot?
Testim Copilot turns a written description into a reusable JavaScript custom step, so testers can add logic the recorder cannot capture without writing the code themselves.
Testim or Tosca?
Both are Tricentis products. Testim is a SaaS, low-code tool for product teams testing web, mobile and Salesforce apps. Tosca is the model-based enterprise suite for SAP and packaged applications at scale, and the centre of Tricentis's agentic platform.
