Composal vs Amazon Q Developer code review
Amazon Q inspects source for security and quality issues. Composal tests a running web product; its QA evidence complements source review and SAST tools.
Two workflows, side by side
Composal
Composal sends AI browser agents to use your running web app and check the outcomes you care about. Define journeys as plain-English Scenarios, map existing flows with Discovery, or explore for bugs with Deep Scan. Runs keep recordings and reproduction steps so your team or coding agent can investigate a Finding.

- Coverage
- Which user outcomes must this release prove, and which specialist checks must stay in your existing stack?
- Setup
- Who prepares accounts, test data, permissions and access to the deployment being tested?
- Evidence
- Can the engineer reproduce a reported failure from the recording and steps, without asking the tester to investigate again?
- Ownership
- Who updates the checks when the product changes, and can the team review what a passing result actually proves?
