Waterwheel is a fully harnessed AI browser test agent that runs automated web tests from plain Markdown files — no scripting, no browser recording, no selectors, no brittle test code. Point it at your web app, describe what to test in plain English, and let it handle the rest. Supports Claude, DeepSeek, OpenAI, and Gemini. Ships as a Docker image ready for any CI/CD pipeline. Built for AI-native teams who value real QA automation over maintaining a large QA team.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I built Waterwheel after watching AI coding agents get faster and faster while QA stayed painfully manual. The agent can write a feature in minutes — why am I still clicking through a browser to verify it?
Waterwheel solves the verification half of that equation. It reads your test files, drives a real browser, and reports back — all autonomously. Combined with Claude Code, I shipped a complete user auth feature with zero human intervention for $0.01 in test costs.
What makes it different:
- Tests are plain Markdown files — anyone on the team can write them
- Optimized for token efficiency — high product quality without excessive API costs
- Multi-provider support — you choose your AI and control your costs
- Permission-layered by design — the agent can only access what you explicitly allow
- Highly customizable — configurable for individual use cases and adaptable beyond QA
- Pairs with Claude Code for fully autonomous TDD: code agent implements, Waterwheel verifies, no human in the loop
The 1.0.0-mac release is free for local development.
