About

Waldo was founded in 2018 by Amine Bellakrid (CEO) and Laurent Sigal (CTO). The two met in engineering prep school Lycée Descartes, and went on their separate paths as mobile engineers, product managers, and designers. After experiencing the pain of mobile test automation first-hand, the founders were fixated on finding a better, elegant way to test more and fast, without involving engineers. Waldo is the first truly no-code test automation solution to quickly build a comprehensive test suite for mobile teams that don't compromise on speed and quality. Headquartered in Brooklyn, NY Waldo works with top-ranked apps in various categories, spanning from the Americas to Europe like Lemonade, Truebill, AllTrails, and Alan Insurance.
