>log in to commentHey DevHunt! 👋 I’m Xusheng, the maker of HiTest. At my previous company, 30% of our budget went into building and maintaining E2E tests. That experience stayed with me. AI helps us ship faster, but checking that everything still works takes time. I built HiTest to make that easier: - Create tests your way: let AI explore your app, record a flow, upload a recording, or import existing cases. - Use natural language: describe steps and expected results—no code required. - See what went wrong: run tests in a real browser and get screenshots, recordings, and failed-step details. How do you test before shipping—manual checks, automated tests, or a bit of hope?
- AI QA agent that tests your app like real users
- Explores user journeys and creates daily test checks
- Free plan – no credit card required
- Generate test cases from plain‑language descriptions
- Run tests on schedule or via deployment webhooks

- Real-browser execution — Runs tests in an actual browser and records screenshots, video and step details.
- Failure evidence — Provides screenshots, recordings and AI-summarized issue details for each failed step.
- Scheduled & CI runs — Run tests on a schedule or trigger them via GitHub Actions or GitLab CI.
- Slack notifications — Send test results and failure alerts directly to Slack channels.
- Authenticated flows — Supports logged-in workflows using safe test accounts defined at the project level.
