About Check Studio
We're on a mission to maketesting invisible.
Check Studio was born from a simple frustration: testing tools were built for a world that no longer exists. We're changing that — one engineering team at a time.
Our Story
Built by engineers who were tired of broken tests.
Check Studio was founded in 2021 by engineers who were running teams at fast-growing startups. Every week, the same conversation: “Why did CI fail?” “It's just a flaky test.” “Just re-run it.”
Every tool on the market had been tried. Cypress. Selenium. Playwright. Each solved part of the problem but created new ones. Tests were scattered. Maintenance was endless. Visibility was zero.
So we built the platform we wished existed — one place to author, execute, analyze, and govern every test across the entire engineering org.
In early 2026, we shipped v3.0 — a ground-up rebuild of the execution engine on Playwright 1.42, with a new Governance Hub, built-in accessibility testing, and mobile testing in beta. It's the biggest release in our history.
Today, 500+ engineering teams across 40 countries run billions of tests a month on Check Studio. The flaky test conversation? It's gone.
What We Believe
Our values
Developer-first
We build for engineers, not managers. Every decision starts with the developer experience.
Reliability above all
Testing infrastructure must be more reliable than the software it tests. We hold ourselves to that standard.
Radical transparency
Open roadmap, public status page, honest pricing. No surprises, no lock-in.
Customer obsession
We measure success by our customers' success. Their wins are our wins.
How We Think
Our approach to testing infrastructure
We have strong opinions about what good testing infrastructure looks like. Here's what guides every decision we make.
Speed is a feature, not a metric
A test suite that takes 45 minutes to run is a test suite that gets skipped. We obsess over execution speed because slow feedback loops are the root cause of most quality problems. Parallel execution, smart scheduling, and incremental runs aren't nice-to-haves — they're the foundation.
Tests should maintain themselves
The biggest hidden cost in testing isn't writing tests — it's maintaining them. Every UI change that breaks a selector is engineering time wasted. Resilient selector infrastructure that adapts to change automatically is the only sustainable path at scale.
Visibility changes behavior
When engineering leaders can see test health, flakiness trends, and release readiness in real time, they make better decisions. Dashboards aren't reporting tools — they're accountability tools. We build analytics that make quality visible to everyone, not just QA.
Governance without friction
Enterprise teams need policy, audit trails, and access controls. But governance that slows developers down gets worked around. We believe you can have both — rigorous controls at the org level and full autonomy at the team level. That's what the Governance Hub is built for.
Code-first, always
No-code tools have their place, but serious engineering teams need to own their test logic in code. We support visual authoring and plain-language generation as on-ramps — but every test compiles to TypeScript that you can read, review, and version-control like any other code.
Fit into the workflow, don't replace it
The best testing platform is one your team actually uses. That means native integrations with the CI/CD tools, notification channels, and deployment pipelines you already have. We don't ask teams to change how they work — we make testing a natural part of it.
The Team
Built by engineers, for engineers
We're a distributed team of engineers, designers, and operators who care deeply about developer experience and testing infrastructure. We're growing fast — check out our open roles below.
500+ engineering teams already have. Let's talk about yours.
