Platform Overview
Understand TestKase's multi-product architecture, roles, and navigation.
Platform Overview
TestKase is a multi-product SaaS platform for quality assurance teams. This page explains the architecture and key concepts.
Products
TestKase includes four products, each with its own workspace but one login, team, and bill. The first two make up the real-device cloud; the other two are the platform.
Automate
Run Selenium & Playwright tests on real browsers (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari) on real macOS machines, straight from CI.
- Real-device cloud: scripted browser automation — point your suite at a TestKase endpoint, no rewrites
- Usage-based: metered by device-minutes; parallelism bounded by your plan's threads
- URL:
automate.testkase.com
Live
Drive real phones, tablets, and desktop browsers by hand, live in your browser tab — tap, type, install your own app.
- Real-device cloud: manual/interactive testing on real physical devices, not emulators
- Usage-based: metered by device-minutes
- URL:
live.testkase.com
Test Management (TMT)
A comprehensive test management tool for organizing and executing manual and automated tests.
- Project-based: All work is organized into projects
- Role-based access: Two-tier model — Organization roles (Owner, Admin, Member) + Project roles (Project Admin, User, Guest)
- URL:
test-management.testkase.com
Accessibility Testing
An automated WCAG compliance scanner for web applications.
- User-scoped: Each user manages their own scans (not project-based)
- URL:
accessibility.testkase.com

TestKase uses a two-tier role model:
Organization Roles
| Role | Who | Access |
|---|---|---|
| Owner | Person who created the org | Full access to everything. Can delete org, manage billing. |
| Admin | Trusted managers | Full access to all projects. Can manage team, invitations. Cannot delete org or manage billing. |
| Member | Regular team members | Access only to assigned projects with their project-level role. |
Project Roles (TMT only)
| Role | Access |
|---|---|
| Project Admin | Full project access. Can manage permissions and team. |
| User | Standard access. Configurable per project. |
| Guest | Read-only access. |
Organization Owners and Admins have implicit full access to all projects — they don't need to be explicitly added as project members.
Product Access
Each team member can be granted access to any of the four products:
- Automate — Real-device cloud; usage metered by device-minutes
- Live — Real-device cloud; usage metered by device-minutes
- Test Management — Uses a seat-based quota
- Accessibility Testing — Unlimited scans on paid plans
When inviting a user as Admin, all products are automatically enabled.
Authentication
TestKase uses a single login for all products:
- Log in at
testkase.com/login(email/password, Google, or Microsoft) - Authentication cookie is shared across all product subdomains
- Navigate between products using the Product Sidebar (left side)
URLs & Subdomains
