Open-source testsprite CLI lets coding agents self-test live backend APIs and auto-fix failures
KARYTON618 · reddit · 2026-09-20
A Reddit developer shares testsprite CLI, an open-source tool that points coding agents at live backends (no mocks) and bundles request, response, root-cause guess, and suggested fix on each failure so the agent can self-correct and re-run. The author identifies likely failure modes—chained stateful calls, short-lived auth tokens, webhooks—and is recruiting testers to map where the self-repair loop breaks down. Free API key tier available.
