Produce test evidence before go-live
Produce test evidence before go-live with Argus QA: a practical, on-prem approach built for Azerbaijani teams.
Autonomous Evidence Generation for Enterprise Web Apps
Argus QA is a self-hosted AI testing platform designed to generate comprehensive test evidence through autonomous regression testing for enterprise web applications. By deploying AI computer-use agents, the system navigates complex workflows and validates business logic without relying on fragile selectors or coordinates. Instead, it utilizes versioned YAML objectives that define roles, assertions, and budgets, ensuring that every action is backed by a screenshot and a documented reasoning chain. This approach allows teams to identify critical defects and validate stability before production go-live, providing a rigorous layer of quality assurance that adapts to frequently changing interfaces. As one of the three core engines of the Argus ecosystem, the QA module shares a unified configuration for models, credentials, and cost accounting with the AI and pentest engines. The platform is engineered for high-security enterprise environments, operating as a self-hosted deployment of ten containers with no external SaaS dependency. By combining deterministic scripting for authentication and stable flows with autonomous agents for multi-role business processes, Argus QA bridges the gap between rigid automation and manual testing, delivering a scalable way to maintain high-fidelity evidence across multiple environments.
Operational Advantages
Minimize manual regression overhead by leveraging autonomous AI agents for long, multi-role workflows
Ensure total data sovereignty and privacy through a fully self-hosted, on-prem container deployment
Eliminate test collisions in shared environments using run-scoped data naming for parallel agents
Control AI expenditures via a two-tier execution strategy that escalates to stronger models only when necessary
Guarantee objective accuracy by using an independent verifier to check assertions rather than the agent itself
Maintain a seamless audit trail with persisted step-by-step reasoning, screenshots, and build stamps for every run
Core Capabilities
Multi-Role Workflows
Simulate complex business processes where creators, approvers, and suppliers operate in fresh, independently authenticated browser sessions.
Model-Agnostic Architecture
Switch between models via database configuration without redeploying, with live probing of provider capabilities like vision support.
Deterministic Security
Logins are handled by scripts using an encrypted secret store, ensuring the AI agent never manages raw credentials.
Independent Verification
Assertions are validated by a separate verifier rather than the agent performing the action, removing self-reporting bias.
Route Memory
Successful runs distill their paths into step intents, providing advisory guidance to improve the efficiency of future executions.
The Testing Process
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Argus QA replace existing automation tools like Playwright?
No, it complements them. Use deterministic scripts for stable flows and AI agents for long, multi-role, or frequently changing scenarios.
How is the cost of AI model usage managed?
Every model call is metered, and costs are aggregated from the call level up to the specific scenario, suite, and release.
Can the AI automatically file bugs in Jira?
No. The AI flags suspected bugs with a report, but a human must review and file the defect to ensure accuracy and authority.
How is the platform deployed and managed?
It is self-hosted using ten containers and a shared artifact volume, removing dependencies on external SaaS providers.
How does the system handle integration with test management tools?
It integrates with Qase.io to import test cases verbatim and post results back to the run with links to Argus evidence, while skipping API-tagged tests.
