BrowserStack launches AI agent suite to automate software testing workflows Web and mobile testing company BrowserStack Inc. today announced the launch of BrowserStack AI, a suite of artificial intelligence agents designed to automate and enhance every stage of the software testing lifecycle. The new agents have been created to help engineering teams deal with bottlenecks in testing. BrowserStack argues that analyzing requirements and writing effective test cases is time-consuming and that, additionally, automated tests are often flaky or break with user interface changes, requiring tedious maintenance. BrowserStack AI addresses the challenges with agents purpose-built for modern quality assurance and development workflows, aiming to outperform general-purpose large language models. "We mapped the entire testing journey to identify where teams spend the most time and manual effort, and reimagined it with AI at the core," said co-founder and Chief Executive Ritesh Arora. "Early results are game-changing; our Test Case Generator delivers 90% faster test creation with 91% accuracy and 92% coverage, results that generic LLMs can't match." BrowserStack AI agents differ from generic copilots or plugins in that it's built directly into BrowserStack products, drawing context-aware insights from a unified data store across the testing lifecycle. At launch, BrowserStack is offering five new agents built to accelerate test planning, authoring, maintenance, accessibility checks and visual reviews. The first agent, the Test Case Generator Agent, analyzes Product Requirements Documents and user stories to generate context-aware test cases. The agent identifies edge cases, validates business logic and creates detailed scenarios, all while reducing test case creation time by more than 90%. The second agent, the Low-Code Authoring Agent, converts well-written test cases into reliable, low-code automated tests, up to ten times faster. The agent also simplifies complex user journeys by translating natural language prompts into actions and validations. In the middle of the pack, the Self-Healing Agent automatically adapts and remediates tests during execution, preventing failures caused by UI changes. The agent intelligently identifies updated elements and remediates tests in real-time for successful execution, reducing automation build failures by 40%. A11y Issue Detection Agent, the fourth agent, uses AI to surface accessibility issues across websites and apps. The agent detects gaps such as missing or irrelevant alt text, incorrect use of decorative images, low color contrast and broken keyboard navigation. It also provides clear, contextual remediation insights to allow teams to build inclusive, accessible experiences without needing deep accessibility expertise. The final agent, the Visual Review Agent, filters out pixel-level differences, draws attention to meaningful shifts with bounding boxes and provides concise summaries of visual updates. The five are only the beginning for BrowserStack AI, which is developing more than 20 other agents. Each agent, current and those planned in the future, integrates with existing BrowserStack products, such as Automate, Test Management, Low-Code Automation, Accessibility Testing and the Percy visual testing tool, and requires no additional setup or changes to existing workflows. BrowserStack AI's capabilities also extend beyond the platform through the BrowserStack MCP Server, an integration layer that allows developers and testers to test directly from their integrated development environments, LLMs or any other Model Context Protocol-enabled client. The MCP server supports popular tools including GitHub Copilot, Cursor and Claude and allows teams to access enterprise-grade testing capabilities through natural language interactions directly from their favorite AI tools.

According to the company, these tools can increase productivity by up to 50% and cut test creation time by over 90%. Unlike generic copilots or disconnected plugins, BrowserStack AI agents are built directly into BrowserStack products, drawing context-aware insights from a unified data store across the testing lifecycle.Accel-backed BrowserStack has launched a suite of artificial intelligence (AI)-powered agents integrated across its software testing platform, aimed at helping software teams accelerate release cycles, improve test coverage, and boost productivity. The product suite, called BrowserStack AI, comprises five agents that address key pain points in the software testing life cycle, which are test planning, authoring, maintenance, accessibility, and visual review. The company claims these tools can increase productivity by up to 50% and cut test creation time by over 90%. "We mapped the entire testing journey to identify where teams spend the most time and manual effort and reimagined it with AI at the core," said Ritesh Arora, CEO and cofounder of BrowserStack. "Early results are game-changing; our test case generator delivers 90% faster test creation with 91% accuracy and 92% coverage, results that generic LLMs can't match." Unlike generic copilots or disconnected plugins, BrowserStack AI agents are built directly into BrowserStack products, drawing context-aware insights from a unified data store across the testing lifecycle, the company said. The suite includes the test case generator agent, which creates detailed test cases from product documents, and the low code authoring agent, which turns them into automated tests using natural language. The suite also includes the self-healing agent, which automatically adapts and remediates tests during execution, preventing failures caused by user interface (UI) changes, while the A11y issue detection agent uses AI to surface accessibility issues across websites and apps. Also, the visual review agent highlights only meaningful changes, making reviews faster. The company also has an integration layer, called BrowserStack MCP Server, that enables developers and testers to test directly from their integrated development environments (IDEs), large language models (LLMs) or any other MCP-enabled client. "AI is only useful if it delivers meaningful, context-rich outcomes," said Arora. "That's why we've invested in building AI agents that understand test environments, real-world execution data, and user behaviour across thousands of teams." Founded in 2011 by Ritesh Arora and Nakul Aggarwal, BrowserStack is a cloud-based platform for developers to test websites and mobile apps across different devices, operating systems, and browsers. It operates across 21 data centres worldwide and provides access to more than 30,000 real devices and browsers for testing. In February, the company announced the launch of the AI-powered test platform that consolidates the entire toolchain for quality assurances under one platform from creating, planning, executing and debugging testing, with an aim to help development teams deliver applications faster and smarter. BrowserStack, which said that over 700 engineers are now working on its AI-powered test platform, has more than 20 additional agents in development. The company's tools currently power more than three million tests daily for over 50,000 teams, including companies like Amazon, Microsoft, and Nvidia.
