Show HN: PlayWord – Turn test cases into automated, executable tests

Hi HN, Steve here! I'd love to share my recent side project: PlayWord – a tool that makes web automation testing simpler and more intuitive. It converts your natural language test steps into actual, executable actions on the web page.

For example, here's a test case I've written:

  go to {TARGET_URL}

  input {USERNAME} in the username field
  input the password {PASSWORD}

  log in

  verify if the URL matches {TARGET_URL}/inventory.html

Readable, right? Now imagine it running as an automated test--that's exactly what PlayWord makes possible!

Features:

1. Describe test steps in natural language and say goodbye to annoying element locating.

2. Support recording: record test steps to create reusable automated tests.

3. Support screenshot reference: enhance AI understanding to better meet your needs.

4. Provide CLI and modular options: run PlayWord via CLI or integrate it into your codebase.

I'd love to hear your thoughts and feedback. Thanks for reading!
