What is incident.io?
incident.io's agent now runs your team's own tools, with a human approval before any change.
Investigations, the agent that posts a root-cause hypothesis when an incident opens, is the center of incident.io; it went GA and then doubled its speed in September. In October the company pushed its agent skills out into coding harnesses, then opened Nexus to customers' own tools and know-how. The 10-28 release restates that extension model and adds an explicit step: any change the agent proposes waits for a human approval before it runs.
What is Testomat.io?
Testomat is pushing test management out of its web app and into the browser under test
Testomat is a test management platform that ships large themed digests every one to two months, each bundling half a dozen features. The last year has been steady accumulation: milestones, a public API v2, an MCP server, defect boards wired to bug trackers, scheduled runs, tree views for plans and runs, and a run of AI helpers for test data, review and analytics. The latest digest is the broadest yet, adding dictation, a browser extension, manual-to-automated progress analytics and an AI-generated project restructure proposal.

◆ Current state
Investigations, the agent that posts a root-cause hypothesis when an incident opens, is the center of incident.io; it went GA and then doubled its speed in September. In October the company pushed its agent skills out into coding harnesses, then opened Nexus to customers' own tools and know-how. The 10-28 release restates that extension model and adds an explicit step: any change the agent proposes waits for a human approval before it runs.
◆ Where it's heading
incident.io is turning its agent into a two-way integration point that can act, not just diagnose. Skills go out to developers' agents, internal tools and team context come in, and the approval gate is what makes write access acceptable during an incident. Dashboards, ticket sync and alert routing keep incident.io as the record the agent reads from and writes to.
◆ Prediction
Expect worked examples for common connected systems such as deploy or feature-flag tools, and Investigations that propose concrete remediation steps for approval. The entries do not say how extensions are built or priced.

Testomat is pushing test management out of its web app and into the browser under test
◆ Current state
Testomat is a test management platform that ships large themed digests every one to two months, each bundling half a dozen features. The last year has been steady accumulation: milestones, a public API v2, an MCP server, defect boards wired to bug trackers, scheduled runs, tree views for plans and runs, and a run of AI helpers for test data, review and analytics. The latest digest is the broadest yet, adding dictation, a browser extension, manual-to-automated progress analytics and an AI-generated project restructure proposal.
◆ Where it's heading
Two threads dominate. AI keeps being applied to authoring and organisation rather than execution — polishing dictated steps, suggesting test data, proposing a folder structure as a mind map the team must approve rather than an automatic migration. Alongside that, Testomat is moving the manual tester's workspace closer to the application: a side panel that runs tests, records browser actions as reusable steps and attaches console logs and network activity without switching back to the web app. Both threads reduce the typing between having a test in mind and having it recorded.
◆ Prediction
The extension's action recording is the piece most likely to grow next — converting recorded steps into automated tests would close the manual-to-automated loop the new analytics widget currently only measures.
