# ALEX

Automata Learning EXperience (ALEX) is a Web application that allows you run automated tests on web 

applications and JSON-based APIs using active automata learning.

Users model [Selenium][selenium]- or HTTP-based test inputs for their application, which are used to automatically infer 

an automaton model (a [Mealy machine][mealy]), which represents the behavior of the web application.
