SmartBear, a global leader in software quality and visibility solutions, has announced the launch of Reflect Mobile, featuring HaloAI, bringing the power of no-code, GenAI-driven test automation to native mobile apps. This strategic move extends the capabilities of the Reflect platform—formerly focused on web applications—into the fast-growing mobile domain.
Reflect now offers unified, cross-platform automation for web, mobile, and APIs in a single, intuitive solution, enabling comprehensive end-to-end testing at scale. With native support for React Native, Flutter, and other mobile frameworks, QA teams can now create reusable, no-code tests that work seamlessly across iOS and Android—all without writing a single line of code.
“Mobile test automation remains complex and underserved for many QA organizations, even as it becomes a rapidly growing requirement,” said Prashant Mohan, VP of Product Management at SmartBear. “Reflect Mobile is a major step in advancing the SmartBear Test Hub strategy by simplifying mobile automation while unifying testing across platforms.”
Breaking Barriers in Mobile Testing
Mobile testing has long presented unique challenges—flaky tests, static locators, and brittle framework compatibility. Many QA teams resort to manual testing or struggle with technical tools like Appium that require coding expertise and heavy maintenance.
Reflect Mobile flips that script with:
- AI-driven test creation via codeless actions or record-and-replay.
- Natural language prompts powered by GenAI for fast and reliable test building.
- No-code workflows enabling non-technical and manual testers to automate mobile app tests effortlessly.
- CI/CD and device grid integrations for smooth inclusion into existing pipelines.
“Reflect completely transformed how I see front-end automation,” said Tommy Marín, QA Lead at Connect Assistance. “It made mobile automation intuitive and powerful—no heavy code, no friction. The AI prompts are genuinely game-changing.”
AI That Meets You Where You Are
Reflect Mobile is designed to empower QA professionals of any skill level—from manual testers to automation engineers—by eliminating traditional technical barriers. Its AI-enhanced platform generates robust tests and maintains them even as apps evolve, making it easier to scale automation across mobile-first product lines.
Built-in integrations with test management tools, CI/CD workflows, and device grid providers ensure that Reflect Mobile fits easily into real-world development environments.
Part of a Broader Vision
SmartBear acquired Reflect in early 2024, and has since accelerated its roadmap, integrating Reflect’s natural language testing, visual insights, and AI-driven automation into its Test Hub platform. The launch of Reflect Mobile positions SmartBear to lead in the mobile-first era of software testing.
“Reflect Mobile brings the same intuitive, AI-powered innovation to mobile that users already love in web testing,” said Todd McNeal, Director of Product Management at SmartBear and Reflect co-founder. “It’s a natural evolution—and a game-changer for teams aiming to achieve full-spectrum test coverage.”
