The Testing Tool Cline Can Drive Itself
Seamlessly Integrates With Your Favorite AI-Powered Editors
One Command to Onboard
testsprite setup --agent cline configures your API key, verifies it, and drops a verification skill into your repository. Cline learns the loop once instead of re-deriving it from documentation every session. Installation is purely local.
Tests Without Browser Code
A test is a plain-language plan file with action and assertion steps — no selectors to maintain, nothing that breaks on the next redesign. testsprite test create --plan-template prints a schema-correct skeleton pinned to your installed version.
One Failure Bundle, Not Five Artifacts
test failure get returns the failing step, its neighbours, screenshots, DOM snapshots, the test source, a root-cause hypothesis, and a recommended fix target — all sharing one snapshot id. The CLI refuses to stitch data from two different runs.
A Suite That Outlives the Context Window
Every passing test is banked. The requirement keeps being checked next session, next refactor, and after Cline has long forgotten why it mattered — which no context window, however large, can do.
Let Cline Verify Its Own Work
Generation is fast; review is the bottleneck. Give Cline a way to prove a change works before it opens a pull request, and the diff stops being something a human has to read line by line.
Built for Teams Shipping Cline Code
Free to Install, Open Source
The CLI is Apache-2.0 on GitHub and free to install from npm. Requires Node 20.19+, 22.13+, or 24+. Test execution runs in the cloud and consumes workspace credits.
Works Non-Interactively
TESTSPRITE_API_KEY=sk-... testsprite setup --from-env --yes --agent cline never prompts, which is what an agent loop and a CI job both need.
Safe to Explore
--dry-run exercises the full code path offline with canned data. test scaffold and test lint never touch the network or your credentials at all.
Scriptable by Contract
A stable --output json shape and documented exit codes: 0 passed, 1 failed, 3 auth, 12 out of credits. A broken feature and a broken pipeline are distinguishable.

FAQ
How does TestSprite work with Cline?
Run testsprite setup --agent cline once. It installs a verification skill file into your repository describing the commands, the JSON shapes, and the exit codes, so Cline can create, run, and triage tests on its own. The skill file is written into the repo Cline is working in, so it travels with the project rather than living in one developer's settings.
Does Cline have to write browser automation code?
No. Tests are plain-language plan files with action and assertion steps. Run testsprite test create --plan-template for a schema-correct skeleton, or ask TestSprite to propose the first set with testsprite test plan generate — proposals are staged for review and nothing is written to disk until you accept them.
What exactly does TestSprite test?
Web application UI in a real cloud browser, and backend APIs. It does not drive native iOS or Android UI, desktop applications, or emulators. If your product has a web frontend or an HTTP API, that is what we cover.
Is it free, and is it open source?
The open-source CLI is free to install from npm and Apache-2.0 licensed. Running tests executes in TestSprite's cloud and consumes workspace credits — 0.5 per frontend run, 0.2 per backend run. There is a free community tier to start on.
Why not just let Cline run unit tests?
Unit tests check the function you just changed. They cannot tell you the page that calls it still renders, or that the API it depends on still returns what the UI expects. That gap is where the regressions an agent introduces actually live.
Does the skill work if several people use different agents?
Yes. testsprite agent install <agent> can be run more than once, and the supported set covers Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Cline, Antigravity, Kiro, Windsurf, and Copilot. Each writes its own local skill file; they do not conflict.
