Show HN: Flowtest.ai – AI agent that performs E2E testing in your website

https://flowtest.ai/

Hey, we are 3 co-founders working on Flowtest.ai, an AI agent that can use websites as a real human and perform there regular end-to-end testing without coding and complex setups.

You simply provide a prompt in natural language, watch a live video to ensure it behaves as expected, schedule it to run regularly, and you have an automated test built and launched. Agent will always run in a new Chrome window acting as a real visitor so if you change elements - it will adapt and you won't need to heal test.

Our goal is to simplify automated websites testing, so you don't need extensive coding, scripting, and ongoing maintenance to heal tests. While we don't aim to replace traditional tools like Selenium, Playwright or Cypress, we want to enable teams to start automated testing sooner without hiring QA engineers or enable existing QA team reach broader test coverage with minimum effort.

The tech behind Flowtest.ai: we convert visible screen elements into text for the LLM (currently GPT-4o), including visible text, element type, and sometimes HTML attributes like alt text or class names. This helps the LLM understand elements that don't have text (e.g. icons). LLM will interact with the page in a similar way as a real user would by simulating mouse click events, using keyboard to enter text, scrolling the page, etc.

You can describe tests as you would to a human, like "use the search box to find a t-shirt and add the first product to the cart" or be more specific with instructions.

We offer a free plan so you can experiment and launch your initial tests without any cost. Sign up here: https://app.flowtest.ai/register?plan=free

For a quick overview, today I recorded this 4 minute demo video: https://youtu.be/OJIvaXnnAlI?si=jxZvYorbrtb575tf

We'd love to hear your feedback and opinions.

I wonder how this compares to tools such as cypress?

As I mentioned, no need to code and maintain tests, agent just executes your instructions each time visiting a website as a real user, adapting to any design changes each time.
