## What this is

The TestGuild Tool Matcher is a free catalog and matching wizard for software testing tools.
It is curated by TestGuild. There is no paid placement and no sponsored ranking.
Public matcher: https://testguild.com/tools/tool-matcher/

## How a tool qualifies for inclusion

A tool is listed when it is vetted in at least one of these ways:

1. Interviewed on the TestGuild Automation Podcast — a technical conversation with the creator or a practitioner, not a sales pitch.
2. Used hands-on by Joe Colantonio on real projects (including healthcare/HIPAA, framework migrations, startup and enterprise scale).
3. Covered on the TestGuild News Show (new tools, funding, releases). Coverage is disclosed as reporting when it is not production use.
4. Flagged by the TestGuild practitioner community from production use.

Inactive tools are omitted from this file and from the JSON catalog.
