Summary

Use Headlamp to discover hidden bugs on your own or in collaboration with your team.

TRACK YOUR TESTING Headlamp records your actions as you test your web site and reveals what you've missed.

Simply follow the trail of markers to untested areas of your web application. These markers disappear as you interact with each element on the page, so you always know what's left to test.

COLLABORATE When your team uses Headlamp, it instantly reveals to everyone what has yet to be tested. You can view coverage for the whole team, or just for your own testing.

DO IT AGAIN When you're done, hit the RESET button to start a new round of test coverage analysis.

User reviews
A brilliant idea! As soon as I heard about Headlamp, I thought, "why has no one ever built this before now?" I've made good use of it with exploratory testing to help make sure my effort thoroughly cover what I'm testing. I particularly appreciate the reporting it provides as a management tool and historical record. Next up will be to add it to my team's process as we begin to automate tests. In this way, we can track our progress towards good test coverage of our multiple GUIs.

Very useful and practical tool for website testing. I'm using it today, to check off menu links as I create an automated test for each link.
