Gauge

Lightweight cross-platform test automation tool

About Gauge

A lightweight test automation tool from Thoughtworks that lets teams write specifications in Markdown and automate them in multiple languages, keeping acceptance tests readable for business stakeholders. Its open development model means documentation, plugins and community support are publicly available, and organisations can contribute fixes upstream instead of waiting on a vendor roadmap. For many teams it becomes long-lived infrastructure: simple to back up, straightforward to automate and independent of per-seat pricing as usage grows steadily.
