    Hey HN, I'm Marcel from Tusk. We’re launching Tusk Drift, an open source tool that generates a full API test suite by recording and replaying live traffic. How it works: 1. Records traces from live traffic (what gets captured) 2. Replays traces as API tests with mocked responses (how replay works) 3. Detects deviations between actual vs. expected output (what you get) Unlike traditional mocking libraries, which require you to manually emulate how dependencies behave, Tusk Drift automatically records what these dependencies respond with based on actual user behavior and maintains recordings…

    Hi, I'm Daniel, CEO of QA.tech. We've spent the past 18 months developing a cool tool that allows you to run end-to-end tests on any web application using natural language. Check it out and let us know what you think! I used to be a CTO at a B2C marketplace and was taken aback that all qa agencies we talked to wanted to create a custom suite of tests from scratch. Even though we were essentially a e-com with the same functionality as everyone else. Why weren't there any best practices? Some time later my co-founders and I had moved on and were looking for the next thing to do. AI agents…

    Hi everyone, thanks for checking out tracium. At work I needed some clarity on how much each agent costs us and how they perform on production so I started looking at existing solutions for this such as LangSmith and LangFuse. Honestly, they felt like they are overcomplicated to integrate and that there should be a simpler solution so I decided to build Tracium. Tracium keeps track of every single AI API call that you make to an LLM provider, with this you can see traces, spans, I/O, tokens in/out, latency. You can compare during A/B testing, see usage from each customer and…

    Hey HN! I’m Gal, co-founder at Checksum (https://checksum.ai). Checksum is a tool for automatically generating and maintaining end-to-end tests using AI. I cut my teeth in applied ML in 2016 at a maritime tech company called TSG, based in Israel. When I was there, I worked on a cool product that used machine learning to detect suspicious vehicles. Radar data is pretty tough for humans to parse, but a great fit for AI – and it worked very well for detecting smugglers, terrorist activity, and that sort of thing. In 2021, after a few years working in big tech (Lyft, Google), I joined…
