All-in-one desktop app to automate testing for mobile & web apps — no CLI, no IDE setup. Create, run & scale tests in minutes. Built on the open-source Maestro framework. Free to use. For devs & non-tech teammates.
We use Maestro at Kindred to run regression test on our most critical paths in our iOS and Anrdoid apps. It took me only a few days to write the test, setup CI (including Maestro Cloud).
I used the Maestro Studio Desktop app to help debug the test (e.g. why is this element not accessible, etc...).
Super useful.
I've been using maestro in the company I work for for more than 2 years now and it was the core reason why we were able to reach a huge level of impact with the tests. We currently have something close to 150 tests running, mixed with e2e and hermetic (mocked) ones. We run an average of 6500 UI tests on PRs per week. And now with this new Maestro Studio Desktop IDE is enhancing the devexp even more, with potential to keep engineers (yes, here engineers are responsible for building and maintaining tests) even more productive. Good job on everything folks, happy to be part of it!

🚀 Hey Product Hunt! Leland here - co‑founder of Maestro.
You might already know Maestro, the open‑source test‑automation framework that helps teams like Meta, DoorDash, Kraken, Stripe, IKEA, Deel, and Uber speed up automated testing.
Some devs tell us they went from 4 hours writing an Appium or Selenium script to 5 minutes with Maestro. 💥
We’re on a mission to make reliable end-to-end testing dead simple, for both developers and teammates who never touch the terminal.
That’s why we built Maestro Studio Desktop! 🧑💻

P.S. Maestro CLI isn’t going anywhere. The Desktop app runs on the same open‑source core, so you can switch between them whenever you like.
@leland_takamine The fact that you've reduced test script writing from 4 hours to just 5 minutes is absolutely game-changing. That kind of time savings doesn't just improve productivity - it fundamentally transforms how teams approach testing and allows them to focus on what really matters: building great products.
Wishing you and the Maestro team huge success with Studio Desktop! 🚀
