Gauge is an open-source framework that allows you to write and run acceptance tests. Gauge tests can be written in Markdown, which makes it easier to maintain and write them. Reuse specifications and robust, refactoring will reduce duplication. A test suite that is less code and has readable specifications will save you time and effort. Gauge can be used with multiple languages, CI/CD tools, and automation drivers. To get your test automation tool working for you, you don't need to learn a new language. Gauge's plugin architecture and ecosystem is robust. Gauge can be easily extended to support IDEs, drivers and datasources. Do not waste your time looking through stacktraces. Gauge will take a screenshot of a test failure to give you a clear picture of what went wrong. Reports can be accessed in multiple formats (XML and JSON, HTML).
