GitHub - rocketship-ai/rocketship: A QA testing framework for your coding agent.

A QA testing framework for your coding agent.

Let your coding agent write and run E2E tests for your web app.

Download · Documentation

🚀 Rocketship is an open‑source QA testing framework that your coding agent can use to test customer journeys by using community-owned plugins like Supabase, Playwright, Agent, etc. It gives your coding agent a test harness so it can ship changes without silently breaking critical user flows like logins, signups, checkouts, you name it. Here's how it works:

1. You install the Rocketship CLI and add a .rocketship directory to your repository. Any .yaml files in this directory will be picked up and run by Rocketship.
2. Your coding agent builds out a new feature, customer journey, or other user-driven scenario and writes a Rocketship test that asserts the flow works end-to-end.
3. You run this test locally (and in CI) before merging. Once it’s checked in, it guards that flow against regressions every time your agent edits the code.

Core Features

• Rocketship CLI Run the engine locally or connect to a remote address.
• Declarative YAML Define your test scenarios as declarative YAML specs.
• Built-in Features Variable passing, retryability, lifecycle hooks, and more.
• Plugin Ecosystem Add the APIs and protocols that matter to you.
• Deploy-Ready Images Need to save history or run tests on a schedule? Host Rocketship on your own infra.

Agent Quickstart

Paste the ROCKETSHIP_QUICKSTART.md file into your coding agent's context window, so that it understands how to build and run tests.

Once it has that context you can:

• Ask it to propose .rocketship/*.yaml tests for your critical flows (login, signup, checkout, etc.).
• Have it update the matching Rocketship test whenever it edits those flows, and run rocketship run -ad .rocketship before committing or opening a PR.

Save a test spec

# .rocketship/auth_flows.yaml
name: "Auth Flows"
tests:
  - name: "Existing user can log in"
    steps:
      - name: "Create user in Supabase"
        plugin: supabase
        config:
          url: "{{ .env.SUPABASE_URL }}"
          key: "{{ .env.SUPABASE_KEY }}"
          operation: "auth_sign_up"
          auth:
            email: "test-{{ .run.id }}@example.com"
            password: "password123"
        save:
          - json_path: ".user.email"
            as: "login_email"
          - json_path: ".user.id"
            as: "supabase_user_id"

      - name: "Log in via browser"
        plugin: playwright
        config:
          role: script
          script: |
            from playwright.sync_api import expect

            page.goto("{{ .env.FRONTEND_URL }}/login")
            page.locator("input[type='email']").fill("{{ login_email }}")
            page.locator("input[type='password']").fill("password123")
            page.locator("button[type='submit']").click()

            expect(page).to_have_url("{{ .env.FRONTEND_URL }}/dashboard")

      - name: "AI checks dashboard"
        plugin: agent
        config:
          prompt: |
            In the current browser session, verify:
            - The dashboard loaded for the logged-in user
            - The page greets the user with their email: "Hello {{ login_email }}" (or similar)
            - A "New Project" or similar CTA is visible
          capabilities: ["browser"]

Run it

rocketship run -ad .rocketship # starts the local engine, runs the tests, shuts the engine down
