Industry leaders automate tests with BugBug

Why should you choose BugBug over UiPath?

REASON #1

No Studio. No Orchestrator. No Robot Licenses.

UiPath requires heavy setup—Studio IDE, Orchestrator, SQL database, and paid licenses—before running a single test. BugBug is a lightweight Chrome extension: install, record, and run your first web test in minutes without unnecessary RPA overhead.

REASON #2

Flat, transparent pricing. No $100K surprise.

UiPath’s $25/month plan is limited to proof-of-concept, while real production setups often exceed $100K annually. BugBug starts at $189/month flat-rate with unlimited users, tests, and runs—no per-robot fees or hidden tiers.

See BugBug's Pricing

REASON #3

Built for web testing, not retrofitted for It

UiPath Test Cloud is an RPA add-on with full platform overhead whether you need it or not. BugBug is purpose-built for web E2E testing—fast, focused, and better suited for catching broken flows before deploy.

See BugBug Features

BugBug has allowed us to implement automated tests in a number of areas of our product, saving time and effort for the QA team and allowing us to have a base set of tests that can be run at any time.

See what our customers are saying

BugBug is super intuitive and lowers the barrier of becoming an end-to-end tester. It reduces development time and significantly lowers the cost of software testing.

— Wojciech, CEO at Davinci-Studio.com

In two days we managed to automate test cases that took us weeks to write up and execute using other software. It is easy to use, yet can still perform advanced testing should the tester want to.

— Panayiotis, Software Tester, ATM Marketing

Very good and fast support from the BugBug team. Have clear documentation which really helps you to get started. Features like scheduling test cases and getting results are perfect for our needs.

— Imalka, QA Engineer at Calcey.com
