The tool acts like a real user, clicking through the app and self-healing when UI elements change. Tests are stored as plain-text YAML committed to the repo, doubling as living documentation. While runs can be slow (15+ minutes), the tool produces detailed reports with session scores, replay capabilities, and plain-language failure descriptions. It works best as a black-box acceptance layer alongside existing unit/integration tests rather than replacing them. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
