The Challenge

A major online casino operator managing web, mobile, and desktop gaming apps struggled with slow testing cycles, inconsistent user experiences, and costly maintenance. AskUI’s visual automation approach enabled them to enhance quality, speed, and coverage across all platforms:

1. Time-consuming manual testing processes

2. Inconsistent user experiences across different platforms

3. Difficulty in replicating complex betting scenarios

4. Slow release cycles due to extensive regression testing

5. High costs associated with maintaining separate test suites for each platform

The casino needed a robust automation solution that could work across all platforms, handle dynamic content, and adapt to frequent UI changes without constant script maintenance. Additionally, they required a system that could simulate real user interactions to ensure the authenticity of the gaming experience.

Tangible Results

Aspect Before AskUI After AskUI
Cross‑Platform Coverage Separate test suites per platform; high maintenance 95 % test automation across web, mobile & desktop
Test Maintenance Time High effort due to UI changes and dynamic content 60 % reduction via platform‑agnostic scripts
Release Cycle Duration Slow, delayed by regression bottlenecks 40 % faster release cycles
Game Quality & Edge‑Case Detection Weak simulation of real betting scenarios Improved detection of complex betting issues
Regulatory Compliance Manual, inconsistent across jurisdictions Strengthened via automated, cross‑platform test coverage

Why AskUI?

Faced with dynamic UIs, varied platforms, and strict quality/regulatory demands, the casino chose AskUI because of:

  • Platform‑agnostic Vision Agents: one set of scripts works across all OS types
  • AI‑powered visual detection: resilient to UI changes and dynamic content
  • Low‑code natural language test scripts: accessible to QA and non‑dev staff

Problem to Solve

The casino required a unified test automation strategy to:

  • Ensure consistent user experience across web, mobile, and desktop
  • Simulate realistic user interactions — especially complex betting scenarios
  • Reduce expensive, maintenance-heavy test suites
  • Accelerate feature releases and meet regulatory standards efficiently

Pre‑Purchase Concerns

Initial concerns included:

  • Can the tool handle frequent UI changes and dynamic game content?
  • Would it accurately simulate real user interactions through visual controls?
  • Could non‑technical testers author and maintain scripts effectively?
  • Would it support cross‑platform consistency without platform-specific code?

AskUI passed early validations, proving stable and intuitive
