GitHub Copilot now auto-runs browser flows to verify generated code
DanWahlin · x · 2026-07-22
GitHub Copilot's app now appears to be able to run a full verification loop after generating code.
- It generates code from a plan.
- It automatically launches the front-end server and backend APIs.
- It opens an in-app browser canvas.
- It then navigates the app, searches for products, clicks through flows, and reaches checkout to confirm the feature works.
The poster says this removes the need to write Playwright tests for basic verification in many cases.
