Cypress
By Cypress.io. Category: Natural-language test authoring. Homepage
Cypress's documentation describes AI features in the open-source Cypress test framework and its Cypress Cloud service. The cy.prompt command turns natural-language test steps into Cypress commands for end-to-end tests in Chromium-based browsers. It self-heals a step when the element it needs has changed. Generated code can be exported as standard Cypress commands and committed. Cypress Studio records interactions, and Studio AI suggests assertions. Cypress Cloud adds AI summaries of test results. A remote Cypress Cloud MCP server gives coding agents access to test run data. The cy.prompt command requires a Cypress Cloud account.

Vendor-stated, verbatim
What Cypress.io says about its product, quoted as published and not confirmed in documentation.
“Cut maintenance with self-healing. Leave cy.prompt in your tests and it adapts automatically when your UI changes, so a renamed class or a restructured DOM doesn't break the run.”
“Generate tests faster than ever with Cypress Studio. Record interactions, get smart AI recommendations, or describe flows in natural language. Watch Cypress instantly turn plain English into runnable test code.”
