Why Ansight

See whether the change worked in the app.

Your coding agent can try the changed flow in a connected mobile app, inspect available UI, logs, network activity, telemetry, and app state, then leave a captured session for you to review.

Every run

Nothing is a dead end.

  • Start with

    A debugging session

    Investigate the failure, identify the relevant actions and state, and use that evidence to author a regression test.

    Carries forwardThe reproduction context and the checks that define correct behaviour.

  • Start with

    A failed test

    Inspect the captured runtime evidence around the failure.

    Carries forwardScreenshots, trees, logs, network activity, and available performance data.

  • Start with

    An unexpected UI result

    Cross-reference the screen with framework properties, SQLite results, and exposed application state.

    Carries forwardEvidence of whether the problem is visual, persisted, or internal.

  • Start with

    A performance problem

    Connect a slow interaction to captured metrics and profiling evidence.

    Carries forwardMeasurements that can inform repeatable performance checks.

  • Start with

    A proposed fix

    Repeat the relevant workflow and check its visible and internal results.

    Carries forwardEvidence supporting whether the fix worked.

  • Start with

    An engineer handoff

    Export the captured session with annotations and relevant saved app data.

    Carries forwardA shared investigation record another engineer or agent can inspect.

Capabilities

What Ansight brings together.

  • Deep session replay

    Screenshots, visual trees, logs, network events, touches, metrics, saved app data, and annotations.

  • Live app control

    Semantic UI selection, input, navigation, waits, and assertions.

  • Framework-aware inspection

    MAUI bindings and diagnostics, Flutter widget information, React Native component inspection, and native view access.

  • App-data verification

    Read-only SQLite queries and concrete database assertions.

  • App-defined tools

    Guarded operations that expose your application's own diagnostics and domain state.

  • Guarded state changes

    Supported property mutations, framework actions, and custom operations.

  • Repository tests

    Agent-driven scenarios, validation instructions, execution results, and retained audits.

  • Scripted tasks and triggers

    Repository-controlled operations, tool composition, and event-driven automation.

  • Native profiling

    Instruments and Perfetto integration.

  • Performance Trends

    Historical measurements, percentiles, and memory-growth analysis.

  • Evidence correlation

    Action identifiers, timestamps, captured trees, screenshots, and assertion results.

  • Annotations and handoff

    Timeline and UI-target context, portable archives, and historical session review.

  • Configurable sanitisation

    Policies for redacting captured content, screenshots, and exported files.

  • Physical and virtual devices

    SDK-connected runtime inspection on supported hardware, simulators, and emulators.

Together

Every stage feeds the next.

  1. 01

    Debug test

    Use the captured failure, actions, and state to author a regression check.

  2. 02

    Test debug

    Investigate a failed run using its retained runtime evidence.

  3. 03

    UI internal state

    Cross-reference visible behaviour with exposed framework and database state.

  4. 04

    Performance verification

    Use observed measurements to inform repeatable checks.

  5. 05

    Investigation handoff

    Preserve the session and annotations for another engineer or agent.

  6. 06

    Fix evidence

    Repeat the relevant workflow and inspect whether the expected results occurred.

Capabilities vary by SDK, platform and enabled tools. Agents use captured evidence to author tests; not every session becomes a reliable test on its own.
