What Leapwork is

Leapwork is an enterprise continuous validation platform for automating tests across the software development lifecycle. Its coverage includes Enterprise Playwright, AI test automation, visual regression, business process validation, and performance, load, and API testing. Leapwork Play generates test plans and automation scripts from source code, requirements, or existing test cases, and runs Chromium-based tests in a cloud browser without local setup or browser installation. Leapwork Flow provides a visual block canvas, reusable subflows, self-healing workflows, and parallel execution. Leapwork Go supports performance testing, load simulation, API validation, and JMeter script imports. The platform validates workflows across ERP, CRM, packaged, and custom enterprise applications. Integrations include Jenkins, Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, GitLab, Bitbucket, Playwright, Selenium, and Cucumber. Teams can deploy on-premises, in the cloud, or in a hybrid environment with distributed execution agents. The paid platform has no free plan; pricing is by custom quote. Licenses include expert support and onboarding and implementation assistance.
