## Reviews

### "Automate our E2E tests at scale and secure our production releases" — 5.0/5

> **Wassim** | *13 August 2026* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What we appreciate most about Thunders is its ability to automate our end-to-end testing. You juste have to describe what you want and AI figures it out and runs it on a regular basis. At LegalPlace, the tool integrated smoothly into our pipeline and saves us a considerable amount of time. The real game changer: right from integration, it helped us detect bugs in production before they impacted our clients. It's easy to get started with, and the automated tests run reliably.
> 
> **Cons**: The initial learning curve requires a bit of investment to set up the more complex test scenarios. Nothing blocking though, and the team keeps improving the product on a regular basis.
> 
> Our overall experience with Thunders has been very positive. Since integrating it into our workflow at LegalPlace, the quality of our releases has clearly improved. Automating our testing allowed us to make our integration chain more reliable and, most importantly, to proactively catch bugs in production before they reached our clients. It's a tool that has genuinely strengthened our confidence in our deployments.

### "AI-powered testing without the maintenance burden" — 5.0/5

> **Aimen** | *08 August 2026* | Human Resources | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I like most is how easy it makes test automation. We can describe tests in plain language and let the AI handle the browser interactions instead of spending time writing and maintaining scripts.&#10;&#10;The biggest difference for us is maintenance. As our product and UI evolve, Thunders is much more resilient than the Playwright tests we were maintaining before. It saves us time, makes regression testing easier, and allows us to increase coverage without adding more QA overhead.
> 
> **Cons**: There honestly isn't much to dislike so far. If I had to pick one area, I'd like to see even more integrations and more advanced reporting options as the product grows. These aren't blockers for us, though, and the core testing experience already works very well.
> 
> Our overall experience has been excellent. Thunders has made automated testing much easier to create, run and maintain.&#10;&#10;What impressed us most is that the AI is actually useful in the day-to-day testing workflow. Instead of constantly fixing brittle scripts after UI changes, we can focus more on what we want to test and on increasing coverage.&#10;&#10;The platform is intuitive, the setup was straightforward, and the team has been very responsive whenever we needed support. For a product team shipping frequently, it gives us more confidence before releases without creating another maintenance burden.

### "A young but powerful tool that makes testing accessible to everyone" — 5.0/5

> **Hippolyte** | *28 August 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The no-code approach is what sold us from the start. Being able to describe test scenarios in plain language meant we could get anyone involved — including young interns who had no automation background. It became a real way to onboard them into quality testing on our websites, and they picked it up fast. Over the past year, I've watched the product evolve at an impressive pace — new features kept coming regularly, and you could tell the team was actively listening to feedback. Speaking of which, their support has been outstanding. We started using Thunders pretty early on, and whenever we ran into an issue, their team was quick to respond and genuinely helpful. That kind of reactivity makes a huge difference when you're betting on a young product.
> 
> **Cons**: The tool is still maturing, and it shows in spots — documentation could go deeper on advanced use cases, and on very complex flows the AI sometimes needs a few iterations to get the scenario right. Minor growing pains overall.
> 
> Overall, Thunders has been a great addition to our workflow. We started using it early on, when the product was still very young, and it's been exciting to see how much it has grown over the past year. What started as a tool to cover our non-regression testing quickly became something the whole team could get involved in — even interns with no technical background were writing and running tests within days. The platform is intuitive, the no-code approach removes a lot of friction, and the team behind it is genuinely responsive and invested in making the product better. It's not perfect yet — there are still a few rough edges — but for a tool this young, the trajectory is really promising. I'd recommend it to any team looking to scale their testing without scaling their headcount.

### "Testing that keeps pace with releases" — 5.0/5

> **Malek** | *28 August 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The plain-language authoring is the standout. You describe the check in normal English and an agent runs the browser, so a UI change doesn't break the whole suite the way a Selenium or Playwright script does. Useful for teams without dedicated automation engineers.
> 
> **Cons**: The main limitation we've hit is interaction with canvas-rendered elements. Since everything lives inside one tag, there's no DOM for the agent to target, so those areas are harder to cover than the rest of the app. Better handling there would close a real gap.
> 
> Solid tool for what it sets out to do. The plain-language authoring and the agent driving the browser mean regression coverage doesn't come with the usual maintenance tax. Canvas-rendered elements are still a weak spot, and the docs could go deeper, but neither takes away from the core value.

### "Klara Feedback" — 5.0/5

> **Nazim** | *18 August 2026* | Human Resources | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The plain-language authoring is the standout. You describe the check, the agent handles the browser, and nobody maintains brittle scripts between releases.
> 
> **Cons**: It covers a lot, so I spent a little time up front working out which features mattered most to us for my team.
> 
> Clearly great with right level of support from Thunders Team.&#10;Regression testing that mostly maintains itself\!
