ScoutQA Testing Power for Kiro

AI-powered exploratory testing for web applications using ScoutQA CLI with automated bug detection and accessibility audits.

Overview

This is a Kiro power that integrates ScoutQA's AI-powered testing capabilities directly into your Kiro IDE workflow. When you mention testing-related keywords or implement web features, your AI coding agent automatically gains access to ScoutQA's testing tools and workflows.

What Does This Power Do?

• Autonomous Testing: AI agent can test web applications through natural language instructions
• Proactive Verification: Automatically tests features after you implement them
• Comprehensive Coverage: Functional testing, accessibility audits, and exploratory testing
• Parallel Execution: Run multiple test scenarios simultaneously
• Real-time Results: View live test progress and detailed findings
