Testing Apps Built With…
Short answer
Agent and vibe-coding tools optimize shipping UI. TestChimp adds per-PR E2E QA—Playwright SmartTests, markdown test plans, requirement traceability, and ExploreChimp—so you move beyond happy-path demos.
The agent-built QA gap
Vibe coding and coding agents compress feature delivery. They do not automatically deliver:
- Markdown test plans versioned with code
- Seed/probe Arrange for parallel-safe CI
- Probe Assert for orders, auth, and ledger truth
- Per-PR
/testchimp testmaintenance - ExploreChimp for non-functional regressions on real paths
- Requirement traceability via markdown plans and
// @Scenario:
The result: preview-green, production-red releases and flaky suites that rot after the next regen. The vibe-coded overview explains the pattern; each guide below maps it to a specific toolchain.

Frequently asked questions
We ship with Lovable or Cursor—do we need QA before TestChimp?
TestChimp is built for that gap: `/testchimp init` adds CI harness and probes; `/testchimp test` on each PR turns agent-built UI into maintained SmartTests with scenario traceability—not demo-only happy paths.
Does a successful agent demo mean we are production-ready?
Usually not. Agents and vibe-coding tools optimize happy paths. TestChimp per-PR workflows validate requirements, backend state, and real user behaviour—not just demo success.
Built-with vs industry guides—which applies to us?
Built-with guides address how you build (agents, vibe coding). Industry guides address what you sell (checkout, fintech). Most teams need both: platform workflow plus domain Arrange/Act/Assert patterns.
What happens when generated tests fail after a regen?
SmartTests live in Git; `/testchimp test` on the regen PR repairs selectors and probes with scenario context. Failures link to markdown requirements so developers know which user journey broke—not just that a locator disappeared.
