A Windows desktop runtime for developing and testing World of Warcraft addons outside the game.

Landing page captured for the 2026-11-03 issue.

For: World of Warcraft addon developers
Worth noticing: Headless tests can produce a JSON report for CI, while unimplemented APIs are reported with the calling line.

Field notes

The runtime presents addon frames on a canvas and can keep the simulated world and SavedVariables in place while files reload. Its test path supports headless runs with JSON reports for CI. The site says a companion addon records information that is only available from the running client; it also directs developers to a separate API-coverage page for the current limits.
