What can it do?
Write tests in JavaScript and TypeScript using any style you like (TDD, BDD, whatever!).

Get full code coverage reporting so you know what’s left to test.
Seamlessly run tests on Sauce Labs, BrowserStack, TestingBot, or your own Selenium Grid.
Ready for continuous integration? Intern fully integrates with Travis CI, Jenkins, and TeamCity out of the box.
How does it compare?
See all features1: True events are not generated by JavaScript within the sandbox, so are able to accurately emulate how a user actually interacts with the application. Synthetic events generated by other test frameworks are limited by browser security restrictions.
2: Stand-alone means that unit tests can be executed in a browser by navigating to a URL without needing any special HTTP server or proxy for support.
3: If it throws an error on failure, it works with Intern.
