Cerberus Testing: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Cerberus Testing is an open-source, low-code test automation platform. Teams define, run and report on tests through a single web interface, covering web, iOS, Android and API applications (REST, SOAP and Kafka). Tests are grouped into campaigns that can be scheduled or started from CI/CD pipelines. The software is published on GitHub and organisations deploy it themselves; the project provides Docker images for the application server and the database.

The company gives a business address in Willems, France, which places it under EU jurisdiction. The source code is released under the GNU General Public License version 3, so an organisation can run the platform on its own infrastructure and keep test data and application credentials in an environment of its own choosing. The vendor's website does not describe a hosted SaaS option. For a European organisation, self-hosting is therefore the main route, with the operating effort that comes with it, without depending on a third-party cloud provider.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Cerberus Testing

Cerberus Testing is headquartered in FR and therefore falls under European law: the GDPR, NIS2 and the Data Act. No foreign legislation can compel access to your data.

Data is hosted exclusively in the EU, so Cerberus Testing scores best on data residency.

Cerberus Testing is open source. You can audit the source code, self-host the software and keep the encryption keys under your own control. Switching is easier because data and software are not tied to a single party.

What this means for your organisation depends on your whole stack and context. The free assessment weighs Cerberus Testing together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
