Writing tests has always required a translation step. You know exactly what the test should do. Getting that into code is the part that slows everything down. You stop mid-flow to find the right selector, check whether the element has a stable attribute, write the command, run it, fix it, run it again. By the time the test exists, you have lost the thread of whatever you were actually building.

cy.prompt was built to remove that step. Describe what you want in plain English and Cypress handles

Cypress's platform is a resource for developers and QA engineers, offering insights into end-to-end testing, test automation frameworks, and modern web application testing. Through articles, tutorials, and documentation, Cypress offers insights into writing and running automated tests for web applications. Developers can learn about Cypress's testing features, including real-time feedback, browser snapshots, and debugging tools, to ensure the quality and reliability of their web applications.

Cypress has moved its AI-powered natural language test automation feature, cy.prompt, from experimental to beta starting with Cypress 15.13.0. The feature lets developers write test steps in plain English instead of code. Key beta improvements include positional context for element targeting, visibility into generated code on failure, text-based targeting via cy.contains, non-existence assertions, network request waiting, keyboard/hover interactions, automatic scrolling, timeout/force options in plain English, expanded assertions, and a selector priority API. Self-healing selectors now show detailed logs distinguishing cache-based vs AI-based healing. Sensitive DOM data is automatically excluded before being sent to the AI model. The feature is free during beta with pricing to be announced later. Migration from experimental requires only removing the experimentalPromptCommand config flag.
