announcing Breaking Apps Hackathon - a 4-week challenge to test any web app using AI. write tests in plain english using open-source Passmark playwright library by @bug0inc. build something or pick an app, write a test suite and submit. open to everyone. starts today.

new in passmark 1.0.14: video assertions. - set video: true on an assertion. - passmark records the test and runs assertions - captures toasts, snackbars, or anything a single screenshot misses. (thanks to page.screencast in @playwrightweb 1.59) passmark.dev

🎉 passmark@1.0.9 now supports CUA mode! Until now, passmark drove the browser through ARIA accessibility snapshots - fast and reliable when the DOM is well-structured, but it can struggle with canvas-heavy apps, custom elements, or markup that doesn't expose a clean a11y tree. After working with a lot of customers, we realized that the winning combo is ARIA snapshot CUA. In CUA mode, the agent sees screenshots, clicks coordinates, and types like a human - powered by the new @OpenAI gpt-5.5 computer-use model. Snapshot mode is still the default and what we recommend for most flows. CUA is the fallback for when the accessibility tree isn't enough. One flag to switch: configure({ ai: { mode: "cua" } }); Requires an OPENAI_API_KEY. Would love feedback from anyone testing flows that snapshot-based agents have trouble with. Passmark is OSS. Check it out and contribute: github.com/bug0inc/passmark Shout-out to @IpseetaP for the PR!

Just crossed 500 🌠 at Passmark. Help us build the most complete and comprehensive AI-regression testing library. Already merged a few PRs last week and this one. We would love to see more contributions! github.com/bug0inc/passmark

your agents need a cloud browser and spinning one up was always a pain, so we just made it easy and hassle-free. bug0 browsers. one curl. headless chromium. works with playwright, puppeteer, or any cdp client. tap in.

passmark is so close to 500 stars… check out the most stable and reliable open-source AI regression testing library built on Playwright by the Bug0 team github.com/bug0inc/passmark

Introducing browsers.bug0.com Instant cloud browsers for automation, testing, and agentic workflows. Pair it with Passmark and browser automation becomes dead simple. No min commitment. Get started with our pay-as-you-go plan.

Shipping Bug0 Browsers today Real Chromium in the cloud. One API call, one CDP URL. Your Playwright code runs as-is. Sessions spin up in seconds and shut down when you're done. Built for speed. One thing done well. Your agents, crawlers, and test suites need it.

Nice to see the my little project reach ~80 stars! Added some improvements: - @OpenRouter support - Tab Manager, if a user flow spans across multiple tabs, we can test it - Misc bug fixes and improvements btw, there is a hackathon running on @hashnode. I would love to see some contributions and PRs. We're also giving away credits via OpenRouter to play around and test Passmark.

164 devs already in. are you? join the breaking apps hackathon. cash prizes and swag for early submissions.

we finally open-sourced the core engine of bug0 called passmark. makes the old process of generating scripts with locators instantly redundant. with passmark, you can build a natural language based regression testing suite for your apps, at scale. AI playwright library

if english is the new programming language, where do you write it? v0? lovable? cursor? claude code?

anyone buying these seo agents is making a big mistake. many websites including us have built in-house anti-spam agents. hashnode alone deletes thousands spam articles a day. all published by spammy agents. 95% accuracy. we retrain as we get signals from the community on false ves.

next week we're bringing hackathons back to hashnode

getting ai ask engines to recommend your product is way easier than most think. we did it for bug0 from scratch. 400% growth in 2 months. giving away the playbook in a free 15 min session. covers what we did with docs, blog content, and structured data to show up in ai search results. dm me if you want in.

It’s bad news for old-school volume-based cold emailing cold emails from unknown senders are the biggest losers because the AI heavily favors existing relationships will gmail finally kill cold email? the winner will crack the relationship layer, not treat emails as a broadcast channel

12 tonnes of KitKats stolen? Thieves took a break... My AI agent just reproduced the bug in my drawer. @KITKAT this is P0.
