Studio writes the tests, runs them, and keeps them current as the app changes. You ship knowing it works. ![Layered application windows representing AI-powered software testing that builds, runs, and maintains tests as interfaces change](https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/5eb9845c1d37d7efad64e226/6a434fb0bd69d5d074c8b6b2_9a066c33efe1b41829ff76917dc0cc88_UI-flow-hero1.avif) ## The adversarial agent for quality Coding agents are built to ship. Studio is the independent check alongside them: a second agent whose only job is confirming your software does what you intended. Here's what that buys you. Catch what slips through ### Noise Signal An agent that didn't write the code has no blind spots about it. Studio catches the bugs a passing suite can't see: outcomes that are wrong even when every step went green. Green you can act on ### Trust When Studio passes a release, it means the app did what you intended. That's a signal you can ship on, not a script that happened to run. Speed without the tradeoff ### Speed Verification keeps pace with every change, so you never choose between quality and velocity. Ship as fast as your agents build, checked the whole way. how it works ## From a sentence to proof ### Describe it Tell Studio what your app should do, in plain language. That's the whole input. ![Plain-language command creating an automated test for a software onboarding flow](https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/5eb9845c1d37d7efad64e226/69f3faf89c332d3768aab07b_BG-kbd-dark-prompts4.avif) ![AI software testing workflow mapping application steps and running tests across browsers](https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/5eb9845c1d37d7efad64e226/69d4163340ee26c68b61349a_PLG-ball.webp) ### Studio builds and runs It maps your real flow, writes the test, and runs it across browsers in minutes. ### The app changes, tests keep pace Studio reads the running app on every run, so the suite stays current as you ship. ![Self-healing automated tests adapting to changing application interfaces and user flows](https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/5eb9845c1d37d7efad64e226/6a454b04f03595cde8128d2e_card-ui-stream-acid-hl.avif) ![Software test creation and validation steps supporting accurate release decisions](https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/5eb9845c1d37d7efad64e226/69fce5d3d15132b5de5100cf_84bc8e4405536845f308d61a42bb45b4_card-SQ-kbd-qa-tester.avif) ### You make the call A clear answer at release: it did what it was meant to do. The decision to ship stays yours. Try asking Studio to \> Build a test \> Verify a change \> Diagnose a failure \> Refine coverage \> Scale a run Who is it for ## Same Studio, whoever's holding it ​ #### Coverage that keeps up with your codebase Connect your coding agent through MCP. Every change gets tested against the running app while you build. ​ #### Enforce quality at machine scale Studio does the execution. You direct the standard, decide what counts, and hold the release gate. ​ #### A real go, no-go signal on every release Coverage that compounds. Maintenance off your team's plate. Engineering hours moving back into building. ![](https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/5eb9845c1d37d7efad64e226/6a42d036be226c7d0af571d4_pure-black.gif) ## Start with a sentence Point Studio at your app, describe a test, and watch the suite start keeping itself current FAQ What is Functionize Studio? Functionize Studio is agent-native testing. It builds, runs, and maintains every test as your app changes, while you make the calls that matter. Describe what your app should do in plain language, and Studio turns it into a clear, standing answer to one question: does the product work the way you meant it to? Real quality is more than a script that passed or a build that went green. It is proof that what you shipped does what it was meant to do. Studio reads your application as it runs, watching how it behaves, and measures every release against what it was supposed to do. Studio works through a modern, chat-first experience built to take anyone from zero to a working end-to-end test in minutes. Nothing to stand up, nothing to maintain. You describe intent, and Studio does the work. The agents, data layer, and execution engine are Functionize's own, built and trained in house, so the understanding of your app gets sharper with every release. You define quality. Studio executes. How does Studio know what to test? You tell it. Studio builds the tests, maps the data, and maintains the suite against what you've defined. The model isn't deciding what matters. You are. What happens when the UI moves? Studio reads the running application on every run, so it resolves each element by what it is, not a brittle selector. When the UI shifts, the test updates to match and keeps running. You never touch a selector. How does coverage keep up as the product changes? Every run deepens Studio's understanding of your application, and new tests come from a sentence. Coverage grows with the product instead of falling behind it, and the map updates on every run. Can my coding agent use Studio directly? Yes. Through the Functionize MCP server, Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code, or any MCP-compatible client can hand work to Studio. The coding agent writes the code. Studio tests it against the running app while you build. What does it take to get started? A browser. There is no infrastructure to stand up and nothing to maintain. You describe your first test in plain language and go from zero to a working end-to-end test in minutes.
