Canary turns plain-English descriptions of what you want to test into working test code. You describe the behavior; Canary writes the test.
You type something like:
"Test that the login page rejects invalid passwords"
Canary figures out the right test type and framework, generates a runnable test file, and — optionally — executes it for you right away.
No boilerplate hunting. No framework wiring. Just describe the test you need.
- Manual testers moving toward automation: describe tests the way you always have, let Canary handle the code.
- Developers who want quick test scaffolding without context switching.
- QA leads who need consistent test structure across a team.
New to Canary? The Getting Started guide walks you through installation and your first generated test in under five minutes.
Coming from manual testing? For Manual Testers explains how your existing skills translate directly into great Canary prompts.
