Salesforce Testing That Doesn't Break Every Release

Salesforce's dynamic UI, Shadow DOM, and three annual releases make it one of the hardest platforms to automate reliably. Aximo tests it the way a real user would — visually, autonomously, and without the brittle scripts that break every time Salesforce updates.

The Problem

Salesforce wasn't built for traditional test automation — and it shows

Most testing tools work well until they hit Salesforce. Then the same approaches that work everywhere else start falling apart — and teams spend more time fixing tests than running them.

DOM Complexity

The tools that work everywhere else don't work here

Salesforce's Shadow DOM, dynamic class names, and constantly shifting UI structure make traditional automation tools like Selenium, Cypress, and Playwright notoriously brittle on the platform. Selectors break after every update, XPath becomes unreliable, and what worked last week fails today for no obvious reason.

Release Cycles

Three releases a year. Three chances for everything to break.

Salesforce ships Spring, Summer, and Winter releases every year — each one introducing UI changes, new features, and security updates that ripple through your test suite. Every release means a round of broken tests, manual fixes, and a regression cycle that consumes more time than it should.

Customization Complexity

Your Salesforce org is unique. Your tests need to account for that.

Every Salesforce implementation is different — custom objects, custom workflows, custom Lightning components, third-party integrations. Generic test scripts don't account for your specific configuration, which means coverage gaps appear exactly where your customizations introduce the most risk.

The Solution

Autonomous Salesforce testing that works the way Salesforce actually behaves

Aximo is an autonomous AI testing agent that tests Salesforce visually — the way a real user would. No DOM selectors, no XPath, no brittle locators. Aximo sees what your users see and interacts accordingly, which means Salesforce's notorious automation complexity largely disappears.

Visual testing, not DOM traversal

Aximo interacts with your Salesforce org visually — seeing what a real user sees rather than traversing the DOM. Shadow DOM, dynamic class names, and shifting UI elements stop being blockers entirely.

Web, mobile and desktop

One agent covers all three platforms. Test your Salesforce web app, mobile experience, and any desktop integrations without separate tools or separate maintenance burden.

Survives every Salesforce release

Because Aximo doesn't rely on selectors or recorded steps, Salesforce's Spring, Summer, and Winter releases don't break your tests. Aximo adapts to UI changes the same way your users do — by looking at what's on screen.

Plain English test authoring

Describe any Salesforce workflow in plain English — lead creation, opportunity management, case routing, approval flows. Aximo runs it without a single line of code or specialist Salesforce automation knowledge required.

Detailed logs at every step

Every run produces screenshots and AI-generated explanations of what passed, failed, and why — so your team has a clear record of what was tested across every Salesforce workflow after every release.

No selectors to fix. No scripts to rewrite.

Aximo adapts as your Salesforce org evolves — custom objects, new configurations, updated Lightning components. The more clearly you define what you want tested and validated, the less maintenance you'll ever need to touch.

How it Compares

Why Aximo Works Where Other Salesforce Testing Tools Struggle

From Shadow DOM handling to mobile testing and time to first test — here's how Aximo compares to the tools most teams are evaluating.

How it Works

From plain English to Salesforce test coverage

1

Describe the flow

Write what you want to test in plain English. Be specific about the Salesforce workflow and what success looks like.

"Create a new lead with contact details, convert it to an opportunity, assign it to a sales rep, and verify the opportunity appears in the pipeline with the correct stage."
2

Aximo runs it

The agent navigates your real Salesforce org, interacts with Lightning components and dynamic UI like a real user, and executes every step autonomously — without relying on DOM selectors or brittle locators.

3

Review the results

Every run produces a detailed log with screenshots, AI-generated step explanations, and a clear pass/fail result. Your team knows exactly what happened at every step across every Salesforce workflow.

4

Save and scale

Save successful tests as cases, organize them into plans, and schedule automated runs before every Salesforce release. Build coverage across your entire org incrementally without adding to your team's maintenance burden.

Who it's for

Built for teams that run on Salesforce

Aximo removes the technical complexity of Salesforce test automation — so any team that relies on Salesforce can test it thoroughly without specialist knowledge or ongoing maintenance.

Salesforce Admins

Test your org without writing a single line of code

You know your Salesforce configuration better than anyone. With Aximo you can describe what you want to test in plain English and run it yourself — no automation engineer, no Apex knowledge, no scripting required.

QA & Engineering Teams

Stop fighting Salesforce's DOM

If you've tried automating Salesforce with Selenium, Cypress, or Playwright you know the pain. Aximo removes it entirely — no selectors, no XPath, no broken tests after every release.

Engineering Leaders

Confident releases after every Salesforce update

Three Salesforce releases a year shouldn't mean three rounds of broken tests and emergency fixes. Aximo keeps your coverage intact so your team can ship with confidence regardless of what Salesforce changes.
