HttpRunner
By HttpRunner (debugtalk). Category: Natural-language test authoring. Homepage
The HttpRunner README describes it as an open-source API, load and UI testing framework that added large-model features in version 5. Test scenarios can be written in natural language, with LLM planning and assertions over screenshots of Android, iOS, HarmonyOS and browser targets. Tests are also defined as YAML, JSON, Go or pytest cases and run by the hrp command-line runner on the user's machine. A built-in MCP server exposes the UI automation driver to MCP clients. The latest tagged GitHub release dates from September 2023, and the last commit on master from August 2025.
