Qontinui Web
Visual configuration builder for creating intelligent GUI automation workflows
What is Qontinui Web?
Qontinui Web is a browser-based visual builder that lets you create sophisticated GUI automation workflows without writing code. It uses a model-based approach where you define:
- •States - Different screens or conditions in your application
- •Actions - Operations to perform (click, type, wait, etc.)
- •Transitions - How to navigate between states
- •Images - Visual elements for state identification and targeting
Mock Execution: Test your automation logic directly in the browser without requiring a real GUI environment. Perfect for rapid iteration and development.

Key Concepts
Model-Based Automation
Unlike traditional script-based automation, Qontinui uses a state machine model. This means:
- •Automation adapts to unexpected changes (dialog boxes, popups)
- •State identification is visual, not position-based
- •Built-in pathfinding navigates through complex workflows
- •Easier to maintain and update as applications change
State Identification
States are identified by visual elements (images) on screen:
- •Upload screenshots of unique UI elements for each state
- •Set similarity thresholds for fuzzy matching
- •Mark images as required or optional
- •Multiple images can identify a single state
Visual Action Targeting
Actions can target elements visually:
- •Click on images instead of hardcoded coordinates
- •Actions adapt to element positions automatically
- •Support for offset clicks relative to images
- •Fallback to coordinate-based actions when needed
Typical Workflow
Create Your Project
Start a new automation project and give it a descriptive name
Define States
Add all the different screens/states in your application workflow
Upload Identifying Images
Capture screenshots of unique UI elements for state identification
Add Transitions
Connect states and define the actions to perform during transitions
Test with Mock Execution
Validate your automation logic in the browser
Export Configuration
Download the JSON configuration for use with Qontinui Runner
Advanced Features
Parallel States
Multiple states can be active simultaneously for complex UIs with overlays or multi-panel layouts
Conditional Actions
Actions can have conditions and continue-on-error flags for robust error handling
Image Library
Reuse images across multiple states and actions with a centralized image library
Export/Import
Save your work as JSON and share configurations with team members
