WordPress Testing Platform for Safer Releases
CanaryWP gives WordPress teams one workspace to create isolated environments, test updates, manage maintenance, automate checks, and review evidence before production.
Everything Your WordPress Team Needs to Test and Maintain Sites
Create and Import
Build new WordPress instances or import existing archives into isolated CanaryWP testing environments.
Instance Operations
Start, stop, restart, clone, create staging, create production, promote selected changes, add tags, write notes, and open WP Admin.
WordPress Runtime
Review WordPress core and PHP versions across the fleet, refresh runtime state, and plan updates before production changes.
Plugins and Themes
Search, install, upload, activate, deactivate, update, downgrade, delete, and inspect extension state across instances.
Database and Content
Export, import, repair, search-replace, manage media, manage users, inspect cron events, edit options, and review email logs.
Backups
Run manual backups, configure backup schedules, review backup history, and keep restore context visible.
Test WordPress Changes Before Release
CanaryWP is a WordPress testing platform designed to catch visible, functional, and operational issues before a WordPress change reaches production.
Smoke checks
Confirm the site boots, key pages load, assets render, navigation works, and fatal screens are absent.
Admin checks
Verify wp-admin and login access when credentials are available.
Visual regression
Compare screenshots against an original or live URL so design and layout changes are easier to review.
Functional checks
Review navigation, forms, safe interactions, and page behavior.
Testing history
Keep run status, screenshots, duration, step details, and failure messages available for later review.
Recurring maintenance without losing visibility.
Scheduler jobs can run on a cadence, target selected instances, perform maintenance actions, attach scripts, run tests, generate artifacts, and send reports.
Job options:
- WordPress core updates
- PHP runtime updates
- Plugin updates
- Theme updates
- Backups
- Site tests
- Email reports
- Run history
