Note
Unlike ACCELQ where automation, execution, and infrastructure scale as separate cost centers, TestGrid is built around consolidated infrastructure ownership. Once teams license TestGrid’s cloud, private, or on-prem environment, advanced capabilities like performance testing, visual validation, and real device execution remain available without additional platform re-licensing as testing scope grows.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
01
How does TestGrid pricing compare with ACCELQ alternatives?
ACCELQ follows a capability-based licensing model where automation modules and execution environments are priced separately. TestGrid follows an infrastructure-first pricing model where once teams license cloud, private, or on-prem test infrastructure, capabilities like visual testing, performance testing, network simulation, and reporting are already included. This makes TestGrid a simpler and more predictable alternative to ACCELQ for enterprise-scale testing.

02
Can TestGrid replace ACCELQ completely, or do teams need both tools?
Most teams use TestGrid as a full replacement for ACCELQ when they need real devices, performance testing, network simulation, or on-prem execution. TestGrid consolidates test authoring, execution, performance validation, and reporting into one platform.

03
How does CoTester by TestGrid compare to ACCELQ’s AI automation?
ACCELQ uses AI primarily for codeless test creation and maintenance. CoTester is, in fact, an enterprise-grade AI testing agent that learns your product context and adapts to your QA workflows, then writes your test cases for you. It can run tests across real browsers, get live feedback, and debug faster. CoTester makes TestGrid one of the most advanced ACCELQ alternatives for AI-driven testing.
