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.

Where each fits

Choose Eggplant when image-level interaction across desktop or mobile systems is important. Choose Composal when web requirements and exploratory browser evidence are the core quality workflow.

Try this evaluation

Pick a web journey with a custom-rendered control and one non-browser surface. Compare visual interaction, the effort to author a stable regression and whether a Composal finding helps reproduce an unexpected web behavior.

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?
