Let your AI assistants author, execute, and reason on tests. Thunders MCP connects tools like Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Devin, or Windsurf directly to your testing environments, workflows, and results. Turn plain English commands into fully automated tests: no scripts, no setup, no context switching. Just ask your favorite AI, it does the rest.
Example Commands (micro-copy under sub-headline):
→ “Convert this Selenium test suite into executable Thunders test cases.”
→ “Investigate why this test failed and suggest possible fixes.”
→ “Pull in the most recent test set run and highlight any critical failures.”
→ “Build a new test case from this Figma design and add it to the smoke test set.”
Thunders MCP works with any MCP-compatible AI client, including:
No SDKs. No coding. Just connect and go.

Migrate Playwright, Selenium, or Cypress test suites into executable Thunders test cases, without manual rewriting.
Build test cases from flows, requirements, or Figma designs and organize them into test sets.
Execute tests using different personas, such as QA Engineer or Accessibility Tester, depending on what you want to validate.
Trigger test runs on specific environments and review results in Thunders.
Review failures, coverage gaps, and recurring issues across recent test runs.
