We’re super excited to announce the release of Nightwatch v3. It that has been built around these three pillars:
-
Developer Experience: The entire experience from getting started, to writing and debugging tests, has been redesigned for speed, stability, and consistent non-flaky results.
-
Mobile first: Test your web or native, iOS and Android, mobile applications on simulators, real mobile devices or a cloud grid like BrowserStack.
-
One test automation framework: Run all types of tests from unit, component, and E2E to API, visual, and accessibility with a single framework.
