Karma vs mabl: What are the differences?

What is Karma? Spectacular Test Runner for JavaScript. Karma is not a testing framework, nor an assertion library. Karma just launches a HTTP server, and generates the test runner HTML file you probably already know from your favourite testing framework. So for testing purposes you can use pretty much anything you like.

What is mabl? ML-driven test automation. The only ML-driven test automation service that automatically maintains tests and identifies regressions for you.

Karma and mabl can be primarily classified as "Browser Testing" tools.

Some of the features offered by Karma are:

  • Test on Real Devices
  • Remote Control
  • Testing Framework Agnostic

On the other hand, mabl provides the following key features:

  • Fast easy setup
  • Machine driven regression testing
  • Auto-healing tests

Karma is an open source tool with 10.7K GitHub stars and 1.61K GitHub forks. Here's a link to Karma's open source repository on GitHub.
