Generate Playwright tests from plain English
Describe what you want to test in natural language and let AI generate a complete Playwright test. Supports OpenAI and Anthropic providers. Review, edit, and run — it's that simple.
How it works
AI test generation turns your natural language descriptions into fully structured Playwright test steps in four simple stages.
Describe your test
Write a plain English description of what you want to test. For example: 'Log in with valid credentials, navigate to the dashboard, and verify the welcome message is displayed.'
AI generates the test
CFTR sends your description to the AI provider of your choice (OpenAI or Anthropic) and generates a complete set of Playwright test steps with locators, actions, and assertions.
Review and refine
The generated steps appear in the visual builder where you can review, edit, reorder, or add additional steps. Every AI-generated test is fully editable before you run it.
Run and iterate
Execute the test, review results, and refine as needed. The AI learns from your existing test patterns to produce better results over time.
Intelligent test generation capabilities
CFTR's AI engine does more than simple text-to-code conversion. It understands testing patterns, page structures, and your team's existing conventions to generate tests that are accurate and maintainable from day one.
- Generate tests from plain English descriptions
- Supports OpenAI and Anthropic as AI providers

- Learn from your existing test patterns for better results
- Generate both spec tests and reusable functions
Use cases for AI test generation
AI test generation fits into multiple workflows, from converting manual tests to scaffolding new automation suites from scratch.
Convert Manual Test Cases
If your team has a library of manual test cases documented in spreadsheets or test management tools, AI test generation can convert them into automated Playwright tests in bulk. Describe each manual test case and the AI produces the corresponding automation steps, dramatically reducing migration effort.
Rapid Prototyping
When exploring a new feature or planning test coverage, use AI generation to quickly scaffold tests from high-level acceptance criteria. Generate a rough test in seconds, then refine the locators and assertions in the visual builder until the test is production-ready.
Onboarding New Team Members
New QA engineers can describe what they want to test in natural language and immediately see how CFTR translates that into Playwright steps. This accelerates learning and helps team members become productive with test automation faster.
Improving Existing Tests
Feed your existing manual test cases into the AI to generate suggestions for additional assertions, edge cases, and negative test scenarios. The AI analyzes your test descriptions and recommends improvements you might have missed.
