Web Applications for testing

January 30, 2025

Digital Playground

Live Application: nobuo.netlify.app

Overview

Digital Playground is a comprehensive collection of test web applications specifically designed for RPA (Robotic Process Automation) testing and troubleshooting. Built as a solution to the common challenge of testing automation scripts without access to customers’ internal systems, it provides a diverse range of UI elements and scenarios that mirror real-world applications.

Background

As a technical support engineer for RPA applications, I face a unique challenge: supporting customers who automate various web applications across different technologies and browsers, but whose target systems I cannot access for testing.
