TestDriver vs Leapwork

From $20 per seat/month (120 testing minutes included, then $0.14/minute)

Quote on request

The seat price is the small half of the bill: $20 per seat covers 120 testing minutes, then metering kicks in at $0.14 a minute (about $8.40 an hour). Seats are billed for every GitHub user who gets a PR review or runs a test, and a vision model driving a desktop is slower per test than a headless browser — model the minutes before committing a large suite.

Enterprise quote-based licensing, typically annual and sized by concurrent runners plus authoring seats.

Free trial rather than a standing free tier; paid seats include 120 testing minutes a month.

TestDriver

Emerging

Leapwork · since 2015

• Tests surfaces nothing else reaches — browser extensions, packaged desktop apps, canvas and third-party OAuth screens.
• No selectors to maintain, so a refactor that renames every class breaks nothing.
• Runs per pull request in a disposable sandbox rather than against a shared staging environment.

• Genuinely usable by non-technical staff — the flowchart model is easier than any script-behind-a-recorder approach.
• Covers Citrix, virtual desktop and mainframe environments that most tools cannot touch.
• Doubles as an RPA platform, which can consolidate two budgets.

• A vision model is non-deterministic. Reruns of an unchanged test do not always take the same path, which makes a genuine failure harder to distinguish from a bad frame.
• Billed by testing hours, and driving a real desktop is slow — a suite that costs pennies on Playwright can cost real money here.
• Young product with a small community; expect to be an early reporter of your own bugs.

• Flowcharts do not diff or merge, so version control is essentially unusable.
• Complex logic becomes an unreadable sprawl of blocks.
• Enterprise pricing with no small-team entry point.

Teams testing extensions, desktop apps or canvas-heavy UIs, where selector-based runners simply cannot see the thing under test.

Enterprises where business users must own automation and Citrix or mainframe is in scope.
