TabQA is an Android testing browser extension published and maintained by OpenUTX. It connects to a user-authorized Android device through WebUSB and brings device control, network inspection, logcat, screenshots, screen recording, translation, and bug-report preparation into a Chrome or Edge side panel.

TabQA is a browser-based workspace for actively testing and reproducing issues on a physical Android device. QA engineers and developers can authorize a phone over USB, operate it from the desktop, align technical evidence with the reproduction, and export a developer-ready bug report without installing a local ADB server or desktop proxy.
TabQA is designed for active QA sessions. It is not a production monitoring service, a device cloud, or a replacement for every ADB workflow.
- Connect and authorize an Android device through WebUSB.
- Select the app under test and reproduce the issue in the live mirror.
- Capture relevant network requests, failure logs, screenshots, and video.
- Annotate or redact screenshots and add expected and actual results.
- Translate bug descriptions or UI copy for cross-border teams when needed.
- Export Markdown, attachments, logs, or a sanitized HAR for engineering.

TabQA 是由 OpenUTX 发布和维护的 Android 测试浏览器扩展。 测试人员可以通过 WebUSB 连接自己明确选择并授权的 Android 设备,在 Chrome 或 Edge 侧边栏中操作手机,并把同一次问题复现中的网络请求、logcat、截图、录像、翻译和 Bug 报告整理到一起。
TabQA 面向主动测试、问题复现和缺陷证据交付。它不是生产环境监控平台、云真机平台,也不能替代所有桌面 ADB 工作流。
- 无需安装本地 ADB 服务、Android Studio、Python 或桌面代理,通过浏览器 WebUSB 连接 Android。
- 在浏览器侧边栏中实时投屏并控制手机。
- 抓取 Android Chrome 与已启用调试的 WebView 网络请求,查看请求详情、失败请求、cURL 和脱敏 HAR。
- 采集目标 App 的 logcat 上下文、截图和无设备音频的录屏。
- 对截图进行标注、打码,并将测试文件拖放到手机共享存储。
- 将 Bug 描述和界面文案翻译成跨国团队需要的语言。
- 整理复现步骤、预期结果、实际结果与附件,导出可交付开发的 Markdown 报告。
- OkHttp、Retrofit 等原生网络栈请求当前不会出现在网络面板中。
- 采集期间需要保持 TabQA 侧边栏打开。
- 浏览器 WebUSB 与桌面 ADB 不能同时占用同一个 USB 接口。
- 自动脱敏无法识别全部业务敏感字段,分享日志、HAR、截图和录像前仍需人工检查。
