Octomind

Coding, strategizing and plenty of langos. It was time again for Octoneers to meet in person, so we asked Dániel and Anikó to show us their beautiful city. Get-togethers are the glue holding our hybrid octopus together. And spur ideas to feed product development for another 3 months. We will share some of those soon :) #budapest #hybrid #octoneers

We added custom variables to our testing. Now you can create your own variable and reference it in our locator picker or when prompting the AI agent. Insert your UUIDs and other test data into your end-to-end tests. Credit cards? No problem. Legit test phone numbers and ZIP codes to test form flows? No problem. Do you have an existing variable list? No problem. Upload it via json file. Access variables in ⚙️ settings -> variables

Last week, 🐙 Marc shared his learnings with a group of founders in the AI/ML space at Amazon Science in Tübingen. He talked about his founder journey, explained how to raise money and shared best practices and pitfalls to avoid when founding & scaling an AI company. Thank you Cyber Valley for the opportunity to meet the bright entrepreneurs of the AI incubator. Good to see a new generation of international talent stepping up.

To edit a test case, it's really important that our visual locator picker works at all times. It’s key to selecting the right element to interact with. Even if it means following the Earth throughout the solar system stubbornly.

New 🐙 arm alarm! Making users successful is not a straight line and can be a real challenge for many SaaS startups. Happy to announce that we have a pro to help with it, now! Welcome Benjamin Dilger on board. Benjamin has been working with our founders 🐙 Marc and Daniel and many of us at  understand.ai, went on to scale customer success team at  talentsconnect AG, realworld one and SlidePresenter. Now, he's back to his roots and gearing up to build the customer success machine all over again. Every day, we talk to our users to help them maximize the value they get from our tool. In the process, we gain invaluable insights. Benjamin knows how to 10x our efforts and will supercharge Octomind's customer success team. #newhire #customersuccess

If you develop using CI pipeline, you can have Octomind check if you broke a new build and block it. When integrated, it can block the pipeline by polling the resulting test report until the status is 'PASSED' with a call to the test report API. See our docs for how to integrate Octomind into your CI/CD and set up pipeline blocking. #webdevelopment #testing #cicd

Our users split into 2 groups based on how they prefer consuming product documentation. And we neglected one group until now. We wrote a lot for the ‘readers’ but we failed the ‘watchers’ - people who prefer stuff explained in videos. We see you. We will do more product videos. We started with a 2min product walkthrough narrated by our Daniel. 👀

In interspecies collab news: Maria sat down with Joe from PostHog to explain how we use Posthog for marketing (and for product analytics, and as inspiration) to stay close to our users. 🦔 + 🐙 = 💜 We didn't want this wonderful news get buried in the launch pandemonium on Friday. Check it out https://lnkd.in/eVSjWadP btw, Posthog illustration game is unprecedented. We are big admirers.

Everyone, you rock! We got tons of feedback for our QA agent and landed the Product of the Day spot! Thanks Flo for supporting us on this wild ride 🫶 The makers go to bed now. Have a wonderful weekend. #buildinpublic #producthunt
