Why SHAFT

• No plumbing. Managed Selenium and Appium drivers, synchronized actions, and smart waits.
• One fluent API. Web, mobile, REST/GraphQL, database, CLI, and desktop in the same test.
• Evidence by default. Steps, screenshots, and logs land in an Allure report on every run.
• Scale by configuration. Local, Grid, BrowserStack, or LambdaTest; TestNG, JUnit, or Cucumber.
• Open and trusted. MIT licensed, on Maven Central, with public coverage.

How it works

Test intent and configuration enter SHAFT's orchestration layer, fan out across the execution surfaces you need, and come back as unified evidence.

Quickstart

Generate your first project and run mvn test. Already on Maven? Add io.github.shafthq:shaft-engine (version from the Maven Central badge):

<dependency>    <groupId>io.github.shafthq</groupId>    <artifactId>shaft-engine</artifactId>    <version>${shaft.version}</version></dependency>

Then write the test:

SHAFT.GUI.WebDriver driver = new SHAFT.GUI.WebDriver();driver.browser().navigateToURL("https://shafthq.github.io/")      .and().element().assertThat(By.cssSelector("h1")).isVisible();driver.quit();

Run mvn test. The Allure report opens with every step, screenshot, and log.

Where to next

• Writing tests: the User Guide has setup, the full API, and examples.
• Using IntelliJ: shaft-intellij.
• Contributing or maintaining: CONTRIBUTING.md is the entry point to the maintainers guide.
• AI agents: AGENTS.md. Start with $shaft-developer, then the MCP tools or CLI commands.
• Training: hands-on courses at automatest.org.
