Introduction to Simola

Simola automates and tests web form submissions. It runs realistic browser simulations on your landing pages.

Use Simola for lead-gen forms, onboarding flows, and data collection. You catch blockers before users or campaigns are affected.

How Simola works (at a high level)

1. You create a campaign for one landing page and one goal.

2. You configure how to find the form, fill fields, and submit.

3. You verify the page, run a test simulation, then activate.

4. You run volume using simulation groups (data + schedule).

5. Every scheduled record produces an individual simulation run.

Why Simola

Modern forms have validations, scripts, popups, and anti-bot checks. These can silently break submissions. Simola tests the full flow end to end.

What you can do with Simola

• Validate real submissions, end to end. Catch broken fields, missing mappings, blocked buttons, and wrong success pages.

• Test your landing page under heavy load. Run high-volume simulations to see if the page stays responsive and submissions keep succeeding.

• Reproduce production-only failures. Trigger edge cases like rate limits, bot checks, flaky third-party scripts, and timing-sensitive popups.

Campaign goals: Form Testing vs Form Submission

Both goals submit your form in a real browser simulation. The difference is what you optimize for.

• Form Testing: validate and monitor the flow. It can enable extra controls like traffic simulation and unique IP retention.

  • Start: Form Testing

• Form Submission: run automated submissions at scale using your data and schedule.

  • Start: Form Submission

Core concepts

• Campaign: the landing page, goal, field mapping, and automation.

  • Start here: What is a Campaign?

• Simulation group: data source + schedule + distribution. This is where you define volume.

  • Learn more: What is Simulation Group?

• Individual simulation: one run for one record, with a status and artifacts.

  • How-to: How to check simulation status?

To do a quick sanity check, run a single Test Simulation. To run volume on a schedule, create simulation groups for your campaign goal.
