Claim

blop is a QA agent that writes browser tests as code in your repo, runs them in CI, clusters repeated failures, and can open PRs to fix broken tests.

blop

QA agent that keeps tests as code

Blop is a QA agent for teams that want browser tests to live as code in their repository instead of in a vendor dashboard. You describe a journey in plain English, and the agent runs a real browser through it to create and maintain a test artifact you own.

The product runs those tests in your CI, posts structured results back to the pull request that triggered them, and clusters repeated failures so recurring breakages are easier to track. When UI changes break a test, Blop can open a pull request with a fix and verification step, keeping the workflow centered on reviewable diffs.

What blop does

Intent-driven tests as code

Describe a journey in plain English and blop turns it into a `.blop.ts` test that reads as intent rather than a selector script. The test lives in your repo and can be reviewed like other code.

Browser runs backed by Playwright

The agent drives a real browser through the flow over Playwright, so the test outcome reflects an actual user path rather than a hidden dashboard state.

CI-native execution

Blop runs tests in your CI using your existing GitHub Actions runners, so the workflow fits into the pipeline you already operate.

Failure clustering

Repeated failures are grouped into clusters so the same broken selector or UI change does not appear as dozens of separate rows across runs.

Agent-authored repair PRs

When a failure is eligible, the agent can open a pull request that fixes the test and verifies it green before review. Auto-fix is described as early access.

Synthetic monitoring

Any test can also be scheduled as a recurring probe against production, with uptime, p95 duration, and journey completion shown as signals.

Where blop fits

  • Turn product journeys into code

    Teams can describe a checkout, signup, or other user journey in plain English and get a browser test that can be versioned and reviewed alongside product changes.

  • Triage repeated failures

    When the same selector breakage or UI regression shows up repeatedly, failure clustering turns many similar results into one issue to investigate.

  • Repair tests through pull requests

    If a UI change breaks a test, the agent can inspect the trace, console output, and diff, then open a pull request with a scoped repair and verification run.

  • Fit into an existing CI workflow

    Teams that already use GitHub Actions can run tests through their current CI runners instead of hosting a separate execution environment.

  • Monitor critical journeys

    Any test can be scheduled as a recurring production probe to watch uptime, journey completion, and p95 duration for important user flows.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Tests are stored in the repository as code, not as hidden dashboard state.
  • Runs integrate with existing GitHub Actions runners, so there is no separate runner to host.
  • Repeated failures are clustered, which reduces noise from the same issue appearing across multiple runs.
  • The product can post structured results back to pull requests, keeping review context in the code review flow.
  • A recurring test can double as a synthetic check with uptime and p95 duration signals.

Cons

  • Auto-fix is in early access, so the repair workflow is not yet a fully general release feature.
  • Playwright is the only runtime called out as first-class today, with other framework adapters planned rather than available now.
  • Self-hosting the full control plane is on the roadmap, not yet shippable.

FAQ

Where do my tests live?

Tests live in your repository as `.blop.ts` files. They are version-controlled, code-reviewed, and editable or deletable by your team.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. Every plan starts with a 7 day free trial, and the trial includes full access to the features in the plan you choose. No credit card is required to start.

Do I need to host my own runners?

Blop runs through your existing GitHub Actions runners, either cloud or self-hosted. The control plane does not execute tests itself.

Does it only work with Playwright?

Blop is Playwright-first today. The result payload is a versioned contract, and the site says adapters for other frameworks are planned next.

How does the agent fix failing tests?

When a run fails, the agent inspects the failure, trace, and diff, then can open a pull request with a scoped fix and verification build. Auto-fix is in early access and nothing merges without approval.
