Maestro
Maestro is the open-source agentic UI testing framework for mobile apps. It includes Maestro MCP, Maestro Studio, and Maestro Cloud. Maestro MCP gives coding agents a live device. Add the Maestro MCP server to Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, or any MCP client. Teams use it in two ways. Check work while building: while the agent builds or changes a feature, it inspects the screen, taps through the new screens on an emulator, simulator, or physical Android device, and checks its own work.
