Siesta is a stress-free, ubiquitous & open-source JavaScript/TypeScript testing tool developed by Bryntum since 2009.

Version 6 is a complete rewrite, using a modern technology stack and a decade of test driven development experience.

Main features:

• One test tool to run all types of tests. Siesta can run tests in all modern browsers, Node.js and Deno. Moreover, in browsers, both in-process and out-of-process execution models are supported, so that you can choose the most appropriate one
• Supports parallel execution
• Supports native simulation of user actions, like clicking, typing etc.
• Provides accurate and well-formatted deep diff for equality assertion

Siesta powers the test suites of all Bryntum products and thousands of our clients.
