What is ReplayQA?

ReplayQA turns a screen recording of your web app into an automated regression test, proves it in a real browser, and replays it without AI.

ReplayQA turns screen recordings into automated regression tests for web apps. You record a flow working on your site, such as signing up, checking out or creating a record, and upload the video. ReplayQA works out the steps, repeats them in a real Chromium browser to prove they work, and saves them as a test you can replay whenever you release.

You don't write test code, and you don't need to know Playwright, Cypress or Selenium.

How it works

  1. You upload a video. Any MP4 or WebM screen recording of one flow, from start to the result you expect.
  2. AI writes the steps. A vision model reads the video once and drafts each click, typed value, selection and date, plus a check for the result at the end.
  3. ReplayQA proves them. It repeats the steps on your site in Chromium. If every step works, the test is saved. You can watch it happen live.
  4. You replay it any time. Press Play on one test, or Play All on a suite. Replays are plain browser automation with no AI involved, so they behave the same way every time.

What makes it different

  • No AI on replay. AI is only used to understand the video (and, if you ask, to explain a failure). Saved tests run deterministically, so a failure means something changed on your site.
  • Proved before saved. A test only joins your library after it has passed in a real browser.
  • Locators that last. Elements are found by what they are and what they say ("the Checkout button"), not by fragile page structure.
  • Nothing changes behind your back. When a fix is suggested, it becomes a new draft that you approve.

What it's for, and what it isn't

ReplayQA automates regression checks you can show in a video: the flows your users depend on and that should keep working release after release.

It doesn't replace exploratory, accessibility, performance or security testing, and a passing test shows the screen behaved as expected, not that every backend record is correct.
