About
Launchable is an AI-based software testing company founded in 2019 by Kohsuke Kawaguchi and Harpreet Singh. Its AI Co-Pilot for test suite intelligence uses machine learning to predict which tests are most likely to fail based on recent code changes, selecting a focused subset so teams get feedback faster.
Beyond predictive test selection, the platform offers test triage, flaky test detection and prioritization, test health insights, and generative-AI error summaries with real-time failure notifications through GitHub and Slack integrations. Customers have included Sony, Infosys, BMW, and LINE.
Lifecycle note: CloudBees acquired Launchable in 2024, and the product now continues as CloudBees Smart Tests, with the CLI command renamed to smart-tests and active maintenance continuing through 2026.
